Hi, if anyone has a set of these (preferably uncut) let me know, found out Dave doesn't make these anymore!

Hi all, I'm tackling suspension and chosen to go with a coil-over conversion. I've looked into companies such as Stance, BC Racing, Ground Control, and Arizona Z Car. I notice that a big selling points for some of these companies is the inverted strut design they use for their shocks. From my research I've pulled the following pros and cons to inverted struts. Pros: -Shock is less prone to leaking -Shock body (sort of) acts as a suspension arm (in the MacPherson Strut design) -Even compression within the shock -Lower temperature of shock oil during compression Cons: -Clunking (a lot of Subaru guys get this, is it just an OEM shock thing?) -Cost -Adjusting the stiffness of rebound/compression is less convenient Because I don't foresee myself ever using stickier rubber than street-able r-comps (think Advan A048) and considering my car is my daily (I go to Laguna Seca twice or three times a month), would it be wiser to go the DIY Ground Control conversion route or would it be worth it to drop ~1500 dollars on Stance/Arizona Z Car coil overs? Thanks, Liam -
Hello, before purchasing brand new I was wondering if anybody had a set of adjustable rear control arms for a S30? Preferably Techno Toy tunning but anything works really. Must be able to ship to Toronto, Canada. Any useable condition, don't care about scratches or worn out paint. PM would be best. Thanks guys!

AZC Knuckle vs Rim Lip Clearance
Orangetang posted a topic in Brakes, Wheels, Suspension and Chassis
Is anyone successfully running an AZC drop/shortened steering knuckle with the tie rod end sitting inside a wheel < 17" diameter, or must a person choose a backspacing to keep the rod end outside of the rim? I feel I've scoured the forum fairly well but haven't found any photos or comments about these drop spacers crowding on rim lips. My 15x9-0 Shakotans required a 1" hub adapter to cooperate with my new rod end location. I'm hoping a 16" wheel will have enough clearance to sit the knuckle inside the wheel rather than moving the wheel outward. Is there any issue with doing what I'm hoping to accomplish?
