Thread: Tubular front control arms

We are going to be making some control arms for you guys here shortly. Does anyone have a set of b13 and b14 arms that we can borrow for dimmensions. We will give a discount to the people that provide such materials.

Any ideas if the Japspec arms are different to the US spec one's? Also is it possible to place a ball joint on the rear mount point rather than a rubber/nolathane bush.. My arms have this over here (not a factory option)

Unfortunately I can't donate any control arms to the cause but I am very interested in these. Keep us updated.

Here is what a set looks like that I just built for a different car. Would be similar. I just need the control arms to build them. Yes we can relocate the ball joint.

Looks great. What are the benefits of a tubular control arm versus the factory arm?

No wheel hop, Lighter, Ball joint location. And the fact they look cool,lol.

That's some good benefits. Are you eventually gonna do this for the p10 and p11? I believe they share the same lca's.

as long as the move the roll centre back to factory specs with a dropped car im 90% in on set.

the jap ones are different, they look the same but the ball joint is in a slighly different spot so you have more negative camber. i'm running n15 ones on my car now.

oh man, these would be sweet!

I know this is really early and a terrible question but are you guys even close to having these up for sale?

I just noticed today that my front control arm bushing is completely blown and is driving me crazy. I would love to hold off for these but can't wait a few months.

Regardless, great idea and I'm subscribed
