Whats up guys, I need to replace the front control arms on my 2003 5AT Coupe w/leather. Obviously I'd rather not just get the OEM, anyone have any suggestions for a good set of upper and lowers?

 

I have the SPC control arms. I would recommend them to anyone. They allow for a good amount of positive and negative camber adjustment as well as caster adjustment.

Another highly recommended brand is SPL.

 

Thanks man, I was checking out the SPC ones, does the kit come with upper and lowers?

just checked SPC's site, they only offer the upper arms. so i think the best bet would be to get those and some new OEM style lower arms

 

Yeah, they just have the front ones. I have only had one problem with them. The right front ball joint had to be replaced. Other than that, they have worked flawlessly. I also have SPC's rear camber arms. I have not had a single problem with them.

 

+ 1.

 

Sweet, thanks for the info man. Will be ordering the SPC fronts soon since those need to be replaced ASAP. Definitely gonna get the rear camber arms eventually. Just noticed you're in Fullerton, I'm in the west LA area. PM me if you wanna meet up some time

 

Will do. Try and come out to the Huntington Beach meet.

 

Hi Devil....
I suggest SPL uppers due to having more adjustment than any other a-arms. You'll find them on our MARKETPLACE under vendor suspension. You can buy the OE lowers from OC Infiniti at a discount since they're sponsors on DRIVER.

@LoneWolf When and where?

 

Gary, how much are the SPL uppers? couldn't find your marketplace

 

At the very top of this page you'll see MARKETPLACE, click on then go to vendor suspension. You'll have several vendors to choose from selling SPL control arms, shop for the best price or free shipping.
Huntington Beach meet is on June 29th starting at 8:30 location is 21100 Pacific Coast Highway, Huntington Beach CA 92648
See ya there....Gary

 

Thanks, see ya there

 

Instead of me starting my own thread, figured i would see if anyone has used these ones I found on ebay. Yes I know ebay isn't the best place, but sometimes you find good stuff. The price is what's making me think they may not be worth it.

I tried a search on here for these, and i didn't find any threads about them.

I had the godspeeds for a little while, and those bushings were horrible, and so was the ball joint. after a few months i had to put the OEM arm back on, and i need a new set so i can get realligned properly and not keep eating up expensive *** tires.

 

^Doesn't look like a very strong design

 

I just can't justifiy spending $700 of control arms.
