    theres nothing wrong with the godspeed kit, but most people would run ingalls or spc kits. and alternative to godspeed could be a pair of hardrace camber kits

    I've seen those Godspeeds after use.
    After 6 months the bushings were torn apart and the arms were bent.
    And that was mild Cali weather.
    Just what I've seen.

    There's a decent amount of people running them here on ephatch I believe.

    I'm on Ingalls front and rear, and I like them.

    The next time around, I plan to go SPC and see how it is.

    you do understand the consequences of cheaping out on suspension? go ahead and let us now how they hold, that is if they do...

    But what makes you think that they are overpriced?
    That's the general price for reputable camber adjustment components.

    These godspeed parts are inferior in my opinion.
    They bent, the bushings tore apart in 6 months in Cali weather.
    Camber bolts are known already to be weaker than the stock bolts already due to their design.

    I most definitely want to get something with good R&D and reputation under race and track environments, made with virgin metals
    rather than Godspeed which already has a lot of hate from the Zilvia community, using recycled parts, and me being "unsure" about them.

    Id even rather go with the Wicked's or the Megans, than these.
    They look better cosmetically in my opinion which IMO means a lot.
    I've never seen something look great cosmetically and be terrible.
    Nor something that looks terrible and work great.

    I would recommend getting something reputable.
    Ingalls, Eibach, SPC, Skunk2, Buddyclub
    I don't want you to die due to an inferior suspension component.

    Edit:
    The Zilvia crowd knows Godspeed best. Hang out around their forum and read up
    Zilvia.net
    I've seen Godspeeds cars in person
    They have a shop here near by my place.
    They have impressive car's and all, 2 built GTR's parked in front.
    But I have been told time and time again from my S and Z friends.
    They say they were sold out on their decent track records from 2010 and pricing.
    But once they committed and bought the products, they were disappointed.
    Mostly talking about their coilovers, sway bars, and turbo application parts. And I would assume that the camber kit will have the same poor consumer review.

    Serious Jay.. Your life rides on whatever kit you chose to buy.

    Hit up Skunk2, ask for Tony Shagday and tell him that Tommy sent you. That way, you'll get a quality kit for about half the price.

    Don't cheap out on suspension parts. If you buy cheap shit you're just going to have to buy a replacement when it breaks. Do it right the first time.

    i was in the same position when i was shopping around for camber kits.

    i ended up just spending 50 bucks more to get some rear ingalls (its been ok not having front camber kits)

    i'd say just save up more. its not that much of a price difference if you think about other car parts
