there Distributed from W.A.
Caltracs Traction Enhancement Kit. Are you tired of false promises from suspension shops? Have you spent alot of money with one that promises the world but their product does not deliver? The revolution in leaf spring traction enhancement is here. This is the product the chassis shops don't want you to know about! Why spend $4000 plus dollars cutting up your pride and joy installing a 4 link kit, back half chassis, new floor, wheel tubs etc etc making your car undriveable except for the straight line action. CalTracs give the same end results and bolt in for most applications. How fast do you want to go? 8 second quarter mile times are no problem. The more power you throw at CalTracs the more efficient they are. Why? Because CalTracs alter the pushing angles on your rear planting your tyres harder to the track and CalTracs are not power limited. Full suspension geometry is retained.

CalTracs are fully adjustable to suit the track conditions, allows instant centre adjustments to improve your vehicles weight transfer advantage (this is where the system is the same as a 4 link), stops leaf spring wrap up & axle tramp, improves 60ft times in most cases. Make your vehicle launch like a cut snake. Applications- Drag racing, Circuit racing, Targa racing, Street (check complience in your state), Towing, 4WD. Want more info on this revolutionary product- email us for an info pack, check out our ad's in Just Parts & Extreme, check out our site or call during normal business hours.

The ones in the pictures will not go on a leaf sprung car alex, they are a 4 link setup that will require removing the leaves entirely.

The tramp rods i made cost me $15. on a low car it wont make a difference.

U sure there stock mate as i have had a look at some of the timeslips and you guys seem to be lacking a lot of top end.You guys seem to get a good 1/8 mile figure then it seems the car dies in the *** up top.

you cant be serious alex, I would never try and say my car or any car had stock gears if it didnt. Mine and mats are both stock. Mats doesnt have alot MPH (106.8)(It has run a 108)as he has FACTORY HEADERS and CATS. Mine did 107.8 and i lifted off the gas(im sure you all know why), i believe that pass was a 12 with 110 + MPH(But lets not speculate), believe it or not it doesnt matter. When my car gets there it wont pussy foot around, it will get right back to where it was and run a 12 if it doesnt break any rear end components.

No diff gears here mate, like isaid all stock.

hey alex want good 60ft times mate l think it's time that you see the light and see that there is a far much better tuning product on the market and then you might see your times tumble

X ORSMXR · 29-05-2005, 06:36 PM

ORSM was up at heathcote today and Chris ran a 13.4 in the ute can't wait till friday night now

whats your best 60 foot on what tyres??

rodderz · 29-05-2005, 06:42 PM

Jeff, you have got a 1.90 60' on the standard Dunlop 17's SP3000's, and you had no aftermarket tune

Alex has always said he drives off the line without a clutch drop to save his driveline, yet still runs 13.3's or so with between 2.10-2.20 60 footers. I've done a 2.04 on the dunlops early on before the mods, need to get that into the perfect run though

X ORSMXR · 29-05-2005, 06:44 PM

from memory Jeff it was 2.029 when ran the 13.36 and that was with a idle launch

what do you call real street alex

You took long enought to bite buddy (DOH must use different brand of bait next time) LOL

XA-Coupe · 29-05-2005, 06:52 PM

I don't think an edit is going to help Alex hugely with his 60 footers. He just drives it off the line. To better his 60 footers he is going to have to work on his takeoffs. He may well ET better and get a better mph, and even a slightly better 60 foot with the edit but there is more to be gained in technique.
