Do let us know how they run on the track & how easy they are to adjust to different setups/track configurations during your sessions. I didn't want to go with Doran because I know the quality of what SPL produces - it might take them a while but they have been the best arms for the Z since they came out with the 350Z version- and I really like how easy they are to adjust after each session when the track/conditions change. That is what is important to me in camber arms.

If the SPL parts had been ready at the beginning of the season I probably would have saved myself a few dollars and gone with those as they would have worked just as well for my needs, I have no complaints about the other SPL parts on the car. The SPC arms however had to go away. I'm sure they are fine for the street but they just get torn up on track.

Hmmm, so all I have to do to get some nice control arms is track down this nickel-plating shop here in Houston and rob the place tonight?
But seriously, I hope these things are available soon. The outside edges of my front tires hate me right now. |

I really want the SPL arms as they will cost half what the Doran arms are and offer caster adjustment. However if SPL keep pushing these back I will pay the extra for the Doran arms. Any idea what was done with the Prototype II? I would be willing to buy those as I don't need as much camber.

I just got back from the tire shop – had them flipped on the rims – so I can get more life out of them since as you said – “The outside edges of my front tires hate me right now”. BTW – once PUCK produces a new batch of kits for the fuel starvation issue, I want to come to Houston to meet you in person – Mr. Expert!!!!!! Cheers |

Well, the new (what I am now calling) proto type III arms are ready to go. I am working with Sean to get them installed ASAP for testing and then get the car aligned. Could be tough this week getting them installed and everything what with his schedule and the V8 Super Cars in town starting Friday at COTA. My goal is to get everything done no later than next week Wednesday. TWS has an all day (8 hours) open track event Friday the 24th, so I hope to have everything in place to test by then. I have my fingers crossed.

Dude, it is not me - it is SPL and them making time for the install/testing/alignment. I was harassing them Friday to do this once I found out everything (parts and pieces) was back in Austin at their shop. The sooner the better I say. I am willing, ready and able to do it now!!!!!!
