Installing BILLET Control Arms & More on my Z // SPL, Hotchkis, SWIFT

After you get the introductory suspension upgrades on your car like adjustable coilovers and sway bars, there are still a bunch of things you can upgrade to improve the vehicle’s dynamic characteristics. Considering automobile manufacturers engineer cars to be quiet, smooth and comfortable, it means they have soft suspension, sloppy handling and room for improvement. In this video, I will be swapping out all of my stock suspension arms for adjustable billet aluminum & titanium adjustable arms, AND MORE!

These are the specs i’ll be shooting for at the alignment shop:
Front Camber: -3.0 degrees. Caster: 6 degrees. Front Toe: 0.05 degrees.
Rear Camber: -1.7 degrees. Rear Toe: 0.10 degrees.
