Im also think about changing springs to! As my car is low on the back due to all the weight, once the new motor is in it will be dragging on the floor

mine has awesome grip keith, peaking 2.6 bar holding 2.2 and not spinning unless you force it
imo std ride height is best place to start unless you have either modded the arms (or they are adjustable) so that the tyres sit square on the road surface
in your case lad all that boom box and pram and shit in your boot wont help matters ROFL
