Yeah I know the SPL's are the be all end all but they're just extremely overkill for my use case. The car is a daily that I want to use to get better as a driver on the track with. I've spoken with a few guys that race in a Nissan series in Socal that use these arms(modded) with good results. I'm not building a race car so I don't think mind giving up caster adjustment and spherical bearings/joints for cost/comfort. Basically trying to build a well balanced car.

With that said I'm not adverse to stepping up the spring rates a little to get off the bump stops if that is what's going on in the rear here.
I'm sorry that's ********. You can't post in the track section asking for advice about suspension and then NOT get SPL stuff because you're worried about cost comfort. The only reason not to use the best arms available is if you're in a racing series that specifically prohibits it

YOU CAN TOTALLY DAILY A CAR WITH SPL ARMS - i dont know where the stupid assumption that adding spherical arms will suddenly make your car unlivable come from

spring rate/damping and tires have a far bigger effect on how your car will feel


your sensibilities are way too soft. if you want a car that actually is trackworthy, get over your ******** and do it right
without proper alignment capability, you're wasting your ******* time

why bother coming here asking for help if you're gonna turn it all down because you wanna half *** this ****? Why are you wasting money on track time at all if you aren't even going to do something as simple a real coilovers and alignment?

this is sad
