Maybe I was just lucky... I believe I only had 4-5 track days on them at that point. I'd have to check my notebook.

So it didn't break, the bushings just gave out? Not like the arm cracked in half or welds failed. The back 2 on each arm or the front one?

Can Somebody Explain to a suspension noob what the hell replacing one arm for another helps? I understand the camber arms... but what's all this other business in there??

gosh soo much money for this car!! must resist.....

martin82 · 09-20-2013, 12:38 PM

also for the rear spc control arm the bushings were completely destroyed. I bet you once I remove my front spc control arm the bushing is gone as well. I mentioned this before but they promised me a new set that never was sent out!! That's great customer service for you!

adjustability (of geometry) and compliance (firmness/softness/play)... changing angles impacts handling... compliance can impact how the car responds in transitions and the feel of it... compliance can also impact reliability of that part and connected parts. there is a 'car bible' on the internet that talks about suspension tuning that you can read, maybe someone can post the link
