    HAHA! Oh god... Um 4 cars, one of which went into limp mode and wouldn't accelerate. Then one lost its rear passenger brake pad, followed by the calliper falling off. So it didn't really happen that was all before 9:30am if I recall correctly. So I went to lunch at George's Paragon.

    Unfortunately it just wasn't meant to be yesterday But my car survived with not a single problem, which was unusual haha

    Had a quick read but couldn't find anything but did you say you are running adjustable rear control arms Jed?

    Reason I ask is I'm pretty sure I'm ordering some this week and was leaning towards the uspmotorsports ones for the price and spherical joints.

    The gruvenparts arms just seem to be priced a little steep.

    Hey mate, yeah I'm running adjustable upper and lower rear control arms from Gruvenparts. They give a lot of adjustability at the rear and I have the spherical joints as well. These joints make a bit of squeak and noise as there is no rubber so you have to grease them up once in a while to minimise this So it's no biggy.

    The gruvenparts were the main ones when I ordered, apparently KW actually have some as well. There are a few more options now from what I've seen. Gruvenparts do seem to be one of the pricier ones though. Just make sure you get upper and lower so you can adjust toe and camber, as my toe went crazy with only camber adjustment... Some people find this doesn't happen others do. But it's easier to just get both sets to start with in my opinion

    Ahhh okay! Yep I've read a bit about the gruvenparts control arms and apparently over a little time the spherical ends get a little bit of play in them. Nothing to worry about but they just become a little noisy.

    Yeah I just enquired about a price for the KW arms, but according to the UK sites they are 270 euros a pair haha.

    Whereas the USP motorsport arms are $390 for all 4 arms. Think ill order them and see how they go!
