My SPC Experience

Fantastic Z

Sup evereybody!

Just thought I'd share my personal experience with SPC stuff. On my last car (G35 coupe) i had SPC rear camber arms w/toe bolts. Well, I eventually upgraded to Stance SS coilovers true style with custom toe arms and here's why. I had two different sets of SPC toe bolts BEND on me while driving. NOT COOL! I felt unsafe running their toe bolts but, the camber arm seemed sound.

Here is a bic of both sets together and the left set has one bent bolt(better pics to come)image.jpg. Two diffferent times the bolts bent on me. First was driver side. Then the passenger side. I bought the first set from Z1 and they replaced them on their behalf even though it was "supposedly" SPCs manufacture fault. The second set was blamed on my alignment tech who took full responsibility for it and offered replacement but, said it looked like a grade 8bolt vs grade10 it should have been. I went custom as mentioned after he offered a replacement that I declined. I personally blame SPC for crappy craftsmanship on the toe bolt design.

My friend also with a G35 at the time had an SPC a-arm break at the ball joint. Having thrown all that ^ out there. Wanting to lower the Z isn't where I want to put my money but, getting the look and feel I want sorta warrants it. I just REALLY don't want to use those damn bolts lol
Anyone else care to share their own suspension experiences here?
