***TORQEN*** 370z Full SPL range - BEST suspension upgrade parts
Adrian@TORQEN replied to Adrian@TORQEN's topic in TORQEN
Coilovers and front camber arms. If you're getting Anti Roll Bars, also worth changing both front and rear end links. Adrian -
1. SPL Front Adjustable Upper Control Arms SPL front upper arms are designed with dual chassis mount adjusters providing camber and caster adjustment while remaining fully attached to the car. The revolutionary slotted arm design does away with the need for bulky and hard to reach jam nuts. Simply turn the hex cap double adjusters to set the arms to their desired length and then lock your alignment settings in place with an allen wrench. The time saved on the alignment rack can be spent in the drivers seat! The fully encapsulated spherical bearing that mounts to the upright provides superior strength and negates the worry of rod end bending commonly found in other designs. The wide adjustment range provides camber gain for racers wanting to maximize grip on the track and camber correction for lowered street vehicles needing optimal tire wear. Using FEA (Finite Element Analysis) our CNC milled 6061 billet aluminum arms are designed to exceed factory strength and durability. Our exclusive hex cap double adjuster is comprised of electroless nickel plated 4130 chromoly along with 6061 aluminum clamps to reduce weight and prohibit corrosion while offering quick and easy adjustment. Ovesized USA made FK spherical bearings feature a teflon liner to provide quiet operation, lower friction, smoother articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The liner is also self-lubricating and self-cleaning, offering robust reliability for street and track use. SPL Front Camber Arms Features: • Lightweight aluminum, stainless steel, and chromoly construction • Electroless nickel plated 4130 hybrid adjuster for quick adjustment • Computer Aided Design with the aid of Finite Element Analysis • Low friction 3/4" 3-piece Teflon lined FK rod ends and sphericals • Offset chassis spacers to maximize caster adjustment • Black anodizing for a durable finish • Made in the USA Adjustment ranges: On a 2009 Nismo test car we reached -4.8 degrees of camber at 5 degrees of caster. At -4 degrees of negative camber, we achieved 6.5 degrees of caster and at -3.5 degrees of camber we could get to 7.7 degrees of caster. Camber correction was measured at 0 degrees of camber. £659 2. 370z SPL PRO Titanium Rear Traction Rod Links Our SPL TITANIUM rear traction links eliminate the mushy rubber bushings on the stock links to reduce toe change in the rear suspension under hard acceleration/braking and when going over bumps. This provides more stability and predictability to the rear suspension for tighter handling. Our traction links are also length adjustable to allow the rear suspension bumpsteer characteristics to be adjusted. Our SPL TITANIUM series links feature 1.25" 4130 chromoly tubing that is slipped over a CNC machined threaded sleeve then TIG welded, making our links extremely strong yet lightweight. Our exclusive 4130 chromoly hybrid adjuster offers quick and precise adjustment, and is CNC gundrilled to reduce weight. Blue anodized titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms, without compromising strength. Our next generation NCT motorsports bearing feature a carbon fiber teflon liner to provide quiet operation, lower friction, smoother articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The injection-molded slot-loaded liner is also self-lubricating and self-cleaning, offering robust reliability for street and track use. £279 3. 370z SPL PRO Titanium Rear Camber Links SPL TITANIUM rear camber links allow for an increased range of rear camber adjustment, necessary for lowered cars or for performance alignments. SPL TITANIUM series links are contructed with 1.25" 4130 chromoly tubing, slipped over a CNC machined angled steel sleeve then professionally tig welded. The angled sleeve prevents the links from hitting the sway bar under suspension travel, while allowing us to use hollow tubing to keep the link incredibly strong yet lightweight. Our exclusive 4130 chromoly hybrid adjuster offers quick and precise adjustment, and is CNC gundrilled to reduce weight. Blue anodized titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms, without compromising strength. Our next generation NCT motorsports bearing feature a carbon fiber teflon liner to provide quiet operation, lower friction, smoother articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The injection-molded slot-loaded liner is also self-lubricating and self-cleaning, offering robust reliability for street and track use. Pair with our SPL TITANIUM toe links and our SPL eccentric lockout kit for total rear camber and toe alignment with "zero-slip". Adjustment spec: Camber adjustment range is +/- 10deg from stock arm. £259 4. 370z SPL Titanium Rear Toe Arm Links for True Coilover For those who have converted to "true" coilovers in the rear suspension (rear spring relocated over shock) and no longer need the mid link to hold the rear springs, our SPL TITANIUM rear toe links replace the stock mid links to provide a wide range of toe adjustment, necessary for lowered cars or for performance alignments. SPL TITANIUM series toe links feature 1.25" 4130 chromoly tubing that is slipped over a CNC machined threaded sleeve then TIG welded, making our links extremely strong yet lightweight. Our exclusive 4130 chromoly hybrid adjuster offers quick and precise adjustment, and is CNC gundrilled to reduce weight. Blue anodized titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms, without compromising strength. Our next generation NCT motorsports bearing feature a carbon fiber teflon liner to provide quiet operation, lower friction, smoother articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The injection-molded slot-loaded liner is also self-lubricating and self-cleaning, offering robust reliability for street and track use. Pair with our SPL TITANIUM rear camber links and SPL eccentric lockout kit for total rear camber and toe alignment with "zero-slip". Adjustment specs: Toe adjustment range is +/- 6deg from stock arm. £259 5. 370z SPL PRO Titanium Rear Mid Links SPL TITANIUM rear mid links replaces the stock mid links to offer complete control over rear toe, rear spring rate and ride height. ?The threaded spring perch allows corner weighting and fine adjustment of ride height, and accepts 2.5" ID standard springs, allowing users to choose from a wide range of springs of different spring rates and length. Our TITANIUM series mid links are CNC machined from T6061 billet aluminum for light weight but high strength and stiffness. Our exclusive 4130 chromoly hybrid adjuster offers quick and precise adjustment, and is CNC gundrilled to reduce weight. Blue anodized titanium hardware shaves even more unsprung weight from the arms, without compromising strength. Our next generation NCT motorsports bearing feature a carbon fiber teflon liner to provide quiet operation, lower friction, smoother articulation and eliminates bushing deflection under load. The injection-molded slot-loaded liner is also self-lubricating and self-cleaning, offering robust reliability for street and track use. Pair with our SPL TITANIUM rear camber links and SPL eccentric lockout kit for total rear camber and toe alignment with "zero-slip". Adjustment specs: Toe adjustment range is +/- 6deg from stock arm. ?Height adjustment of 3" for a given spring (base height can be set arbitrarily through different length springs) £669 6. 370z SPL PRO Front Sway Bar End links SPL endlinks feature massive 3-piece FK 1/2" bearings to provide the highest load capacity for use with stiffer aftermarket sway bars, and custom made high misalignment studs that offer extreme articulation capability (65deg) to prevent the endlink from binding when used with different adjustment holes on aftermarket sway bars. SPL endlinks are also length adjustable to eliminate preload on tjhe sway bars, which can result from uneven settling of springs or uneven suspension heights from corner weighting. £179 7. 370z SPL PRO Rear End links SPL endlinks feature massive 3-piece FK 1/2" bearings to provide the highest load capacity for use with stiffer aftermarket sway bars, and custom made high misalignment studs that offer extreme articulation capability (65deg) to prevent the endlink from binding when used with different adjustment holes on aftermarket sway bars. SPL endlinks are also length adjustable to eliminate preload on the sway bars, which can result from uneven settling of springs or uneven suspension heights from corner weighting. £179 8. 370z SPL Eccentric Lockout Kit The stock eccentric bolts provided by Nissan for small camber/toe adjustments tend to slip under high cornering loads, causing changes to the rear alignment. Our SPL eccentric lockout kit eliminate the stock eccentric bolts to keep your rear alignment where you set it. You must have adjustable control arms in order to adjust camber and toe after eliminating the stock eccentric bolts. Our lockout plates are CNC machined from T6061 aluminum and supplied with CAD plated grade 10.9 hardware for absolutely zero-slip. £69 9. 370z SPL PRO Solid Differential Bushings Front & Rear Set SPL SOLID differential mounting bushings eliminate the stock mushy rubber bushings to hold the differential solidly to the subframe. The stock silicone filled differential bushing is notorious for tearing under hard driving (characterized by black streaks on the rear subframe from dried silicone leaked from the bushing). Our bushings will never break, and will keep the differential from "bouncing around" under hard launches/acceleration. This will help prevent damage the drive shaft and half shafts, reduce wheel hop, and improve power transfer to the ground. SPL SOLID series bushings are precision CNC machined from T6061 billet aluminum for an accurate fit. Kit includes the bushings on the front of the differential pumpkin as well as the bushing on the subframe where the rear of the differential attaches to. A bushing driver tool is included for pressing the stock bushing out of the subframe. £139 10. 370z SPL PRO Front tie rods SPL front endlinks feature massive 3-piece FK 1/2" bearings to provide the highest load capacity for use with stiffer aftermarket sway bars, and custom made high misalignment studs that offer extreme articulation capability (65 degrees) to prevent the endlink from binding when used with different adjustment holes on aftermarket sway bars. £239

***TORQEN*** LOWEST PRICE 350z DE 03-06 GReddy Twin Turbo kit
Adrian@TORQEN replied to Adrian@TORQEN's topic in TORQEN
You can stay with the smaller injectors provided in the kit, but they might max out. Safer to go for larger injectors, the price for 725cc and 1000cc is the same, you can have whichever set you like. Adrian -

Extract from The Western Mail Magistrates' courts could grind to a halt if thousands of motorists exploit a legal loophole unwittingly exposed by a Welsh driver. Magistrates had no choice but to find Phillip Dennis, of Whitford, Flintshire, not guilty of speeding when his case was heard on Thursday. He had omitted to sign the standard form which is sent to the owner of each vehicle caught by a speed camera - and Mold magistrates said they couldn't accept the form as evidence. Police have no power to compel car owners to sign the form and have been expecting someone to spot the loophole. Yesterday the Association of British Drivers, representing about 2,500 motorists, predicted drivers would soon get wind of the court case. "Motorists are always very quick to seek any way to avoid paying for their speeding ticket, particularly when they've been caught by cameras because they resent very much the way the cameras operate," said spokesman Tony Vickers. "The cameras have very much reduced public respect for the police and local authorities. "People are only too glad to find a way to beat the system." He said motorists who receive a speeding ticket after being caught on camera could opt to have their case heard in court, rather than pay the fine without quibble. "If a lot of people take up this option it will have another side-effect, which will be to clog up the magistrates' courts with hundreds or thousands of motorists all trying to avoid paying the fine. "The implications for the legal system are interesting, to say the least." Although the ABD did not condone breaking the highway laws, it said it would place details of the loophole on its own website for other drivers to read. "I'm sure a lot of people will try it on and see whether it gets them anywhere." The prospect of using the loophole could look especially appealing to people who already had endorsements on their licences, said Mr Vickers. "They should bear in mind that if they fail, they will end up paying the full fine rather than the 50% they would pay if they put their hand up." When a police camera takes a photograph of a speeding vehicle, the vehicle's registered owner is sent a form asking who the driver was at the time. It is an offence not to complete the form and name the driver - but the owner does not have to sign it. If the form has not been signed, the courts cannot take any notice of it. Magistrates in Mold were asked to prove a case of speeding against Phillip Dennis, 34, of Gwibnant Farm, Downing Road, Whitford, near Holywell. But clerk Paul Conlon pointed out that the form naming the defendant as the driver was unsigned. The driver had provided the information required of him but there was no requirement under that section of the law for the form to be signed. Magistrates said they were not happy but had to find the defendant not guilty in his absence. Chairman John Beard suggested the police should go back to defendants and ask them to sign the form. But he was advised that as the law now stood the only requirement was to stipulate the name of the driver, and that there was no legal requirement to sign it even if police did go back and request a signature. Nobody was available from North Wales Police to comment yesterday. But one police source said there had been concern that once the loophole was spotted "it could open the flood gates." He said, "The police generally have been waiting for someone to appeal against a conviction on this point but no one has yet. "We have basically been keeping our heads down. "Some of my colleagues say we should just make sure people sign the forms but others are a bit concerned that to do that is tricking people into something they do not have to do. "The trouble is when this is highlighted they will all be sending the forms back unsigned." RoadPeace, the charity for road-accident victims, said the loophole showed that cameras and computers were no substitute for a police presence on the roads. Chairman Zoë Stow said, "It illustrates that we can't just deal with these things as a bureaucratic issue and send forms through the post. "It's disappointing that the law is poorly drafted and nobody seems to care enough to do it properly." Speed cameras have proliferated in South and North Wales since the Home Office gave police permission to use fines to pay for enforcement, rather than sending the money to the Treasury. Latest figures show that in 2001 the number of speeding tickets issued by South Wales Police was 38% higher than in 2000. North Wales Police registered a 19% increase in 2001, although its Arrive Alive speed-camera campaign wasn't launched until late that year.
