So BJ, how do we go about getting some of these mysterious 'quality race parts' that you mentioned? I need front camber arms and will take a front sway as well. Can I get some in this lifetime?

I can vouch for their front camber arms being great.

BJ, PM me a price on a front bar, just so we can be sure that it's out of my price range, lmao.

All you have to do is ask
I have one set of front upper control arms left from our first batch.
Drop me a PM and we can go from there.

Phunk...tried to reply but ur box is full.

Some other parts are also in development that others may think are a little more seat of the pants "fun"

First up : Headers.... Like no other set that is currently available.

The big project on the table may be THE hot ticket for power.

Before anyone else can volunteer, I'll be more than happy to supply my car for testing on a street going Z in exchange for some discounted parts.

Building by own Doran Nismo RC one part at a time.

I need negative camber for other reasons then race. Car is lowered a good 2" with stock camber arms. I have negative camber if course due to my drop... My question is, will the Kinetix front camber arms provide me option to adjust for MORE negative camber?

It is needed so that the ball joint doesn't rock back and forth. The threads on the ball joint would wear out quickly and eventually fall off causing you to crash and die.
