BMR Upper / Lower / Trailing arms question...
So I called BMR to let them know the bullets were missing on the Lock Out Kit & got to talking about other improvements to help get the squirreliness out of the Z on hard acceleration & was recommended:
TCA059 Lower Trailing Arms, Non-adjustable, Poly Bushings Wheel Hop & Improved Handling UTCA058 Upper Trailing Arm, Non-adjustable, Poly Bushings Wheel Hop & Improved Handling UTCA061 Upper Control Arm, Non-adjustable, Poly Bushings Improved Handling Could any of you gents comment on adding the suggested vs just installing the lockout kit?? This here will be my first mod to the car & hoping for some feedback if another $350 is warranted for what I'm trying to achieve. Many Thanks!! |

I have it all. Lockout kit, all the arms, central frame brace, and strut tower brace. I had all but the strut tower brace installed at the same time, and I was totally happy at that time. Honestly, the strut tower brace is considered superfluous, and it probably is. I just like the underhood bling.
Compare the BMR control arms to stock, and you make your own decision. You must have talked to the same guy I talked to at BMR. I think it's a worthwhile upgrade. There is literally no wheel hop or any issues when accelerating, and the cornering is fantastic. It just goes! Mark R. Albuquerque, NM |

Did they say why non adjustable vs going with adjustable? Also, you guys do the safety loop?

Aren't there eccentrics on pretty much all the necessary pivots such that adjustable arms would only be redundant? I could be wrong...

I got the black myself...should be in any day.
The bolt issue on the lockout kit not being reusable made me squirm...I am 'assuming' I do not need any new fasteners for the trailer / control replacement?? Also, are the torque specs listed?? Thanks!! |
