    What arm kits we all using these days guys? Hearing that most are now all made in cheese China metal factories , where does that leave us? Buying rubbish and having to redo them every 3-5 years at best?

    Prices are all over the place too from 150-800 I’m finding , what we saying chaps

    Thanks

    Actually, that's an interesting question. I have been looking into camber adjustments for my own car, since I'll be road racing it, and I noticed that we don't have MacPhearson (McPhearson? MacFearsome? whatever) strut suspension. We also don't have that slick adjustable Miata double-wishbone suspension. Do we need to use adjustable control arms? ECS Tuning has a couple kits. If I remember correctly, they're about $800, which is (and this is true), very expensive.

    The key is to install them correctly. You need to tighten down the nuts on the control arms with the suspension loaded otherwise the bushings tear prematurely because they are locked in a different position. Also best bet is factory arms or lemforder and change out the bushes for poly urethane.

    Note this kit is only bushes and does not include control arms:
