what mods should i do next?

im planning to get some new mods on the car. i already have bama tune, cai, torque converter, 3.73, udp, cmcv and nitto street tires. But idont know what to do next. Im thinking of getting spyder driveshaft, uca and lca cuz i need more traction.

So what do u guys think i should get. I have 2000 dollars to spend.

Note that im only interested in mods that will increase performance and give me better launches. no cosmetics

Some control arms and one piece driveshaft would be perfect to go along with what you already have. BMR would be a good place to look for control arms.

Justin's right. The control arms and shaft should be your next bit of kit. The biggest issue with the stock components is bushing deflection, and either urethane bushings, or rod-ends, if you can deal with a little low-speed noise, will cure what's ailing you.

I will also agree with him on BMR, I've got a LOT of their goodies under mine, and they work quite well. Give Josh or Kevin a shout at PMP Parts, they have great deals on the BMR stuff, and killer customer service.

You can get a sypdershaft d/s from modulardepot for $450+50 shipping. So if I was you I'd get that, some lower control arms, and an adjustable upper third link. Then I'd want a adjustable panhard bar/brace. If you are wanting more grip I'd look into a set of nitto 555r's for the rear. Or for even better grip but shorter life a set of mt et streets or m&h's.

I can work up a package with Long Tubes, Billet LCAs and a Driveshaft for right about 2K. That would be a hell of a package... and we could include the retune for free with the purchase.
