Saw that on frrax. It looks like a brilliant idea as it is a simple solution to a problem. Did it raise your ride height any?

Feather-light suspension, Konis just couldn't hold. I'm so glad I took a look inside your showroom doors.

I'm glad the suspension market for these cars is still expanding. Interested to see how you like them & those UMI upper arms.

no need for a taller ubj, and that is the spacer it moves the uca down to give you more clearance.

Out of curiosity, why do you have poly bushings in your control arm rather than having rod ends? I only ask because you dont seem to drive your car on the street so the lack of street comfort doesnt seem to apply. Just asking though

yes those are delrin, In the 2 sets of umi uca I had rod ends, no real diffrence in NVH. Im only interested in making my car preform better so sacrifices are needed. I really dont worry about street comfort as I only drive it about 100 miles a week. Getting a car to handle in a autocross enviroment is all about weight to contact patch ratio.
