I don't really know a lot about cars, so my question is: What is that? Thanks!

It's an adjustable upper control arm for the front suspension. People have been unhappy with the SPC one. That new one certainly looks good. My only concern is that it would introduce a lot of NVH to car, since it uses solid heim joints.

Looking forward to some actual pertinent information as teasers are heavily frowned upon.

Matt Gustafson Ah, I see you're wasting your time on FRS parts instead of finishing the 370Z front camber arms that you've been said are coming soon for the last two years. Splendid.

SPL Parts 370Z camber arms are being machined right now. ETA is 6-8 weeks.

I have the SPL rear camber and traction arms, no extra NVH there.

WTF are you talking about, in that post, I was asking a question, was corrected, and admitted my mistake. The law changed since I last smog'd a car.

These are SPL arms, for 370Z, which will work on the G37.

So hold your comments until you contribute as I have here.

Black Betty's response was mostly tongue in cheek!!

OK, yeah it was.

I share Matt's sentiment. I was told directly that they'd be available "soon" by those guys at SPL over 3.5 years ago. I honestly had given up hope completely and figured it was never gonna happen. They look great. But if history is any indication, they will be outrageously priced compared to anything else available. But they do look more solidly built than anything available.

Anybody wanna guess retail pricing? I say $700+.
