Well I recently made an order with SPL and they have some pretty sweet parts that are made right here in the good Ole US of A!

Well The NICO Time Attack Race car will be seeing some serious action in the next few years, so I called up my friends over at SPL and set up and Order for Tension Rods, Subframe Bushings, Rear Upper Control Arms Toe Rods and Traction Rods. Let me tell you these links are nothing short of spectacular.

Everyone knows about their quality parts and most peopple have seen or heard about the quality of their RUCA's and Tension Rods, and not to mention the Bushings are spot on. But maybe you guys don't know about their Toe Rods or Traction Rods. These are a new design that have evolved after several hours of track testing with their Time Attack Turbo 300ZX.Both of the version 2 arms are Made from Chromoly Steel and are bigger and beefier than the first version. They also feature QA1 Endura 200 Rod Ends (The Best in the Business).

And a really Sweet feature is that the Toe Rods are kinked slightly to allow more clearance of the subframe on lowered cars, a feature that SPL tells me they are the only ones on the Current Market.

The car has not been on a track yet, but I am very Impressed with the Customer Service and Parts Quality from SPL, I deffinatly recommend shopping there and tell them I sent you!

Looks a lot like my rear end haha.

I'll be ordering the Tension rods soon, I can only assume they're as good as the rest of their stuff.

looks good, one thing that freaks me out about those is the way the rod is welded to the mount, prolly fine but i dont trust welds.

well if you dont trust welds, what do you trust, a weld can actually b e stronger than the steel it is on, I don't see your reasoning for saying that, OEM pieces are welded why can't aftermarket pieces be?
