Having a hard time getting a good answer on this, conflicting views from my mechanic and the boards, etc. I am arguably a newbie overall, but no doubt a suspension newbie. My car dives down on rear pass. side on launch - what will remedy this problem?

a) subframe connectors
b) bag on pass side rear spring
c) air shock on pass side
d) date fat chick and make her ride behind me to even it out (please don't pick this one)

Please vote!!!!

I would go with SFC's no matter what. They really help straighten and tighten up the car, an airbag in the pass side rear should also help. Is your car lowered?

Have you thought about a heavy duty rear sway bar like the BMR extreme? I heard that works wonders for a twisted up launch.

my car is lowered (being done right now) so I think I'll start with the airbag (cheapest solution) first and see how that works. I just ordered it from Thunder Racing. Thanks guys, I appreciate the help!

D) Might be cost effective on first or second date, after that the cost continue to rise with no end in sight. 'cept hers climbing out of the car. And she might question the double bag.
