Strength, weight, less stiction, ability to set toe/increase/decrease track width/camber---adjustable swaybar mounts---the rally version arms are bullet proof---no real performance gains on a street car/not worth it in my opinion, on the roadrace/rally car probably worth some time/durability...Originally posted by atomicEGT View Postsigpicwww.piercemotorsports.com www.piercemotorsport.com Like us on facebook http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/p...91292610897146Comment

Ok so the machinist dropped of some pins finally---2 pins...he said he'd do a bunch next week for me and hopefully stay ahead of me while I build them. So I should be able to start on Monday---finally...

Yeah, depending on workload, I should be able to kick out a set every other day---it actually only takes about 2.25 hrs to put the arms together once everything is going, but with my workload now (this week I was slow---probably could have kicked out 5 sets---next week, rollcage's in Honda, FIAT, and a Mercedes 190...) 2.25hrs is harder to come by! I'll keep you posted---yours will be the first set for "setting" everything up!!!sigpicwww.piercemotorsports.com www.piercemotorsport.com Like us on facebook http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/p...91292610897146Comment

Matt's set is about ready to ship---I'm still waiting on the pins, in the meantime I'm building all the tube's/plates and what not so it'll just be assembly when they show---should be able to kick another set out by the end of the week. They are very nice pieces---I'm stoked on how they turned out.

Sweet! Benz's answer to the M3! Hard to come across those on this side of the pond. I think "A day at the shop" thread would be pretty cool. Just post all the cool stuff you get to play with on an every day basis!Comment

Is there a weight saving worth talking about with these things? (i may have missed it earlier in the thread, trying to do ballpark weight of my car.)

Originally posted by JPmotorsports View PostGot more parts in---still don't have the pins, allthough yesterday he said today, and I talked to him today and he said he'd have some in a few hours, so whatever that means---I should be able to start putting arms together. Got some more of the threaded inserts and got the swaybar tabs from the laser cutter---you guys are getting a smokin' deal on these, after figuring all the machining/laser cutting costs (4 machine shops/one laser cutter) these things are going to be probably closer to $450 with labor. We cut the balljoint plates out as well---probably should of had those lasercut, but got bored yesterday... (the rest of the arms are for another project).
Ohhhh... those wouldn't happen to be mine, would they?
