    Instead of "shift", can you make it say "danger to manifold"?

    I paid (via PayPal) the kit to be sent to Finland in 2 weeks ago but haven't heard anything since. I did not received the track&trace number...I must say that the customer service could be better

    Replied to both. Terho, the E46 kit is taking longer than usual since we don't normally stock E46 size arms (mosty sell E36/e30 race kits and then drift kits). The E46's are getting popular though so I think we will be stocking them regularly for 2014.

    I hope I get my hands on this kit soon. How about folks, how have your kits lasted in track use?

    I was watching this picture below and I started to wonder it this section is strong enough (where the white arrow points)? I presume that serious tencile strenght calculations have been made. I would imagine that his point is under load when hitting "rumble strips" hard. Or does the control arms the all the load?

    I am currently in the process of installing my kit. I do not have any concerns about strength anywhere in the design of the kit.

    Yeah, you have to imagine the steering knuckle fastened to the joint int he CA still, the tie-rod pickup probably won't be receiving much of the initial hit from a rumble strip/off track excursion.

    I hit the wall at almost full lock at 45 straight into the left front tire. The CNC piece and outer tie rod weren't damaged at all. The control arm bent and the inner tie rod snapped. I have full faith in Seans kit surviving rumble strips.

    I did this and here was no damage to my kit at all.



    Rumble strips wont do anything to the kit.

    This might be a stupid question, but could these possible break? And how so?

    So far nobody has been able to break it, even in some really hard wrecks. Bent control arms but those are supposed to give in a hard crash so they dont bend the frame of the car but the geometry plate and associated hardware has survived everything that has been thrown at them.

    There are different bushings and 2 different bolts for E36 vs E46, but the arms are interchangeable (just one of the benefits of our kits, you can swap between different chassis' without buying a new kit)

    On E46 you can run longer arms without too crazy of camber so we also offer a custom extreme-angle arm kit now.

    Tried to email about 2 weeks ago, I have the AKG Race Control Arms but interested in the bumpsteer/roll center correction.

    E36 M3 for a "grip" race car. Details on getting the AKG spherical to fit in the bracket, and how much the bracket/tie rods etc are by themselves.

    Sweet vid I like how the mustang was slower in drift sucks so slow you couldn't maintain drift at some points behind him.
