nice look with the 350z wheels i'm planning to get some, for the camber kit I bought a spc and it's pretty well made, you get camber and toe adjustement for front and rear but to adjust the toe in front you have to put shims behind the wheel hub so it's pretty shitty imo, Im not planning to put them on.

Thanks! I like them, but the car will look much better once it's lowered a little, ha ha. SPC huh? Where are those made? I honestly haven't heard of them. I'll give them a look. Thanks!

SPC is a good brand, SPL is better though if you don't mind the cost.

Trust me, SPL or bust. I've seen/installed just about every other brand out there and the quality just isn't there

I use SPL on my 240, and it's great stuff. Their G stuff is very spendy though! Have you used the Eibach ones before? What makes the other ones so much worse? The Cusco ones are almost $300 cheaper. You can tell that the SPL ones are hands down the best just by looking at them, lol, just trying to see what else is out there that is reasonable I guess. Coming from a 240SX background, it's hard to drop almost $800 on ONE set of camber arms, ha ha. The SPL arms for my S14 are only $350. A lot less goes into them though...

I wanted the spl too but the price was just too high for me so I bought spc, I found them on ebay an on z1motorsport.com it's about 600$ for all around. If you dont build a race car I think it's a good choice.
I liked cusco but these are expensive too

I can't seem to find where SPC parts are made though. You still have the boxes by chance? lol

SPC is made in china. If you're just going for a bare bones budget approach SPC will get the job done and I would go with them, but not for any kind of performance driving. I would do SPL on the rears and just leave the front alone unless you're dropping it a lot.. front camber isn't really that big of an issue its the rears that get you.

SPL is headquartered in Austin Texas, right across from Uprev... Been there, cool guys. They stand behind their products. All you need to do is hold one of their products up next to a competitor's and you'll notice the difference.

^^ What he said. I've got some SPC stuff I'm going to be upgrading to SPL over the winter. Big difference in build quality and well worth the price, imo.

I've been dealing with them for years with my 240SX. Great group of guys, with quality stuff. I figured the SPC stuff was Chinese, just by looking at them. Didn't want to judge without knowing though. I will get SPL for the rear hands down. Depends on how much cash I have when i'm ready to get the fronts, but I may go Cusco. If I can afford it, I'll get the SPL. The Eibach pro-kits drop the front 1.1in and the rear 1.0in from what I've found online.

I would not say that getting spc is going bare to the bones cause you can get kinetix, ichiba,
megan racing and some other stuff like that for cheaper than spc but I agree that spl seem to be the best, I was wondering about stillen they are about the same price as spl but look similar tho those spc, is it worth the price.

when you physically hold them in your hands and compare the quality, you will understand what I mean.

SPC is the best of the cheaper brands, but still leaps and bounds behind SPL. Stillen is a ****ing retarded company that sources Chinese parts of various quality and charges astronomical prices for them.

The Stillen Engine Damper is $170+shipping from Stillen, I bought it online straight from the supplier for $30 shipped. Yea.
