Front upper suspension arms fitted

Just fitted new upper suspension arms on my R32 today. I have been reading alot on here to see which was best so thanks for all the information.

I got the adjustable camber arms from Rising Sun in the end. These come with the bearings rather than bushes so I figured that they would last longer and not need replaced so often.

Anyway fitting was not too difficult and it all went fairly smoothly. I'll need to get the geometry checked now. I put them on as close to the originals as I could but they were non adjustable and were probably out given the car has been lowered.

Took her out for a quick spin. There was no more road noise or vibration than there was before. I was a bit worried about this as there are no rubber bushes. The turn in feels very sharp and precice even on todays cold wet roads. All in all very happy.

Brakes to do next and that should be her pretty much sorted for the mean time.

I'll maybe get the rear adjustable camber arms also if the original setup is difficult to adjust.

I'll be fitting a set of these to mine as soon as I get back to work, fiited a pair of standard ones when I first got the car, now 18 months later all 4 bushes have a serious amount of play in them!
