SPC rear camber arms - two different designs?

CRiZO · 12-15-2018, 01:11 PM

Hey all, I've been accumulating some suspension parts and with it, SPC rear camber arms. Just springs so it won't be super low, and no serious tracking.

I bought them from Kamispeed and they look just like this:

But on Z1, they're bent like some others I've seen to avoid the sway bar:

Have they been updated, or just a mistake on the Z1 website? On the SPC website, that part number shows a straight arm.

Thanky

The photo of the z1 arm may be for a different vehicle/generic photo. The oem and nearly every aftermarket adjustable arm is straight and does not need to bend to get around the sway bar. You should be fine purchasing from your vendor of choice. Just check their return policy if you are really concerned about it.

The design was updated at some point after the SPC’s bent version snapped on track.

I have the SPC straight arms with a hotchkis sway bars f/r and stock endlinks. Lowered with Eibach. The clearance is just a few mm but it has never touched. It's really close though. My Z has been on track a few times but it's really just a DD. No problems for me after 20,000 miles.
