Default Can somebody help me with a nice looking drag setup??

Well right now my car looks like a 4x4 lol. I was wanting to get a set of QA1 12 way adjustable shocks for the rear and ill most likely go with them. But i dont know what springs to use for the rear also im not for sure what kinda setup to go with on the front that has a nice weight transfer.
I have searched a lil bit and found out that drag springs doesn't lower the car but are awesome for drag racing. Well im wanting the car to leave hard but still have a sick stance...

TIA
B.J.

I have front coil-over QA1's and rear QA1's with v6 springs, I'll let you know how it does in about a month...

We have lot's of customers running the Qa1's or Strange front coilovers and just our rear lowering spring. Our rear spring drops the car about 1 1/4 inches and will not hurt your 60' times. If you have any other questions I can help you with please feel free to ask

What do you call it when you delete the upper a arm and have just a lower arm and shock for a drag set-up? Who makes it and how does it drive?

That is a strut conversion and all of the ones I have seen are for a drag race application only. AJE and Santhuff make the most common ones.
