SPL is the best hands down. SPC is decent, Ichibia seems to be hit or miss and I would not buy it. One member almost was flung off a mountain road after his Ichibia rear camber arm broke going through a curve.

^^So wrong. SPL has way more adjustability if you use the heim joints and kick SPC's butt for reliability and ease of installatiion.

Really? Ichiba? Do people ever learn that it's nothing but top rate chinese garbage. Geez I can't believe people still buy their crappy suspension parts. Save yourself some major headaches and buy another brand that won't fail on you and risk your life.

I have front and back SPC and they are solid with good adjustability. Go with quality, you can find them used for a good price in the marketplace.

Ichiba arms give more negative than positive camber adjustability (they are meant for track rather than getting car into specs) though i would never track a car with their camber kit on because i read about the poor quality. You might be able to find some SPC shims cheap for the front which will automatically give you +2 degrees and pair them with the ichiba arms if you want to go on the cheap.

The most important thing about camber kits is there adjustability! Camber kits like Cusco and ICHIBA won't give you enough adjustment to get back to OE alignment specs, so you'd be wasting your $$. SPL camber kit along with a knowledgeable alignment mechanic will get the job done....I wasted $500+ to find this out buying the wrong kit!

Never heard of anyone having problems and never had any problems myself.

There should be a sticky with a list of failed parts or something. There is no reason to not identify products that could cause someone to lose their life from a failure.

Blue Dream comes with teh fatality ! major props brah



I have called out every single Ichiba FS thread I have seen on this forum, at the cost of some members shlttin on me for doucheing in someone's thread.

All good though, if we are getting information that could help someone prevent a major accident or worse at the cost of being called a douches on a forum by some ignoramus.... We should all gladly pay that price
