I have the akg adjustable ones they use spherical bearings. It's a track car only so idk how noisy or they'd feel on the street.

Upper, lower or trailing arms? I have done it. -Nate

My bad I have the fronts not the rears. Didn't read the "rear" lol

If you get M arms (E36 M3 should fit your car with 330 axles) they are factory spherical.

Its these bushes that i want to swap to sypherical bearings

Does the 330 axles that u say i will need to run have different splines to my factory ones? If so i wont be able to use them as iv had custom solid centre axles made up to suit my hubs

[TOOLEAN]

ahh... that would be your Rear Trailing Arm Bushing or RTAB. Pick your favorite vendor and buy one, no need to re invent the wheel. Sean might also be able to help you out.

[DRIFDN]

yeah i was thinking of going to nolathane ones but then thought maby sypherical ones would be even better. Speaking of sean helping me out.. hows that super angle kit coming along?

Are these still being made?

And what happened to the website?

[jakermac]

Don't know what's up with his site, but he's on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/#!/SLRspeed?fref=ts and his email is listed several times in this thread.

Definitely still in production. Just finishing up the 2013 parts (no geometry change, but they are lighter and look more sleek.)

We had continuous issues with the hosting and mail services so I opted not to renew. I thought it was through the end of the year, but I guess not. Website will be back up soon, and I'm determined to get the actual online store working.

Website is back with way better hosting! Working on the store for the rest of the night, hopefully by Monday you guys can purchase directly from the website

Any pics of the new pieces? Should we expect a price increase at all, or same pricing as late this year?

[RoyalBlau]

I can't wait to pick up a set for my missile car.

Lots of very positive comments in this thread. I am about to order a race version for my track car. Anyone have issues or problems worthy of noting?

Will say that I reached out to all the primary sources for quality aftermarket performance parts. Sean replied quickly and thoroughly. Can't say the same for everyone.

The only issues I've had stem from my choice of control arms.

For the record, get oem lemforder or febi arms. I went with Meyle HD and it's been nothing but headaches. Different diameter outer balljoint meant that I had to have the bore machined out to accept the spherical. The casting for the outer balljoint is much larger and required a TON of grinding to clear the e36 m3 brake rotors, took off well over half of the casting in order to get everything clear.

If you order his tubular arms, or are using e36 arms, you should be fine.

Thanks - good feedback. I have the Miele Hd in the car now but decided to get the slr arms as well. I read some poor feedback on the design of he AKG arms which I was strongly considering at first. I would love to see some comments fom guys running wider front tracks on E36 road course set ups... I an planning on going standard width since I am not sure what complications the wider width will introduce......anyone?

[bennyfizzle]

I also had an issue with the tie rod stud interfering with my wheels, because they are reverse drop/reverse barrel. Solution was to cut the flanged portion of the bearing standoffs/misalignment spacers, giving another 1/8" or so for the nut to come off, and then trimming the stud to clear the wheel.

Problem:



Solution:

[sdipompo]

This is why I run a 30mm spacer

Women... run 20's and you're golden!

[twinscrewed]

Ordered my set tonight! Went with the +13mm track width road course set up.

Trying to figure out how to not have -6 degrees of camber or less with this kit... Thoughts?

Do a camber plate like Essa's?
