I have all the adjustable arms from PowerTrix on the project 240SX, good stuff. Charles is a good guy too, owns one of the faster stock turbos 300ZX too! :righton:

don't buy nismo... the whole idea is to remove that bushing.. plus you can pull some caster. You want ones with a pillowball mount.

and yeah, like chris says..if you are upgrading, loose the rubber...and pull some more caster...say no to Nismo..this time anyway

I got some old school battle versions (black anodized) off ebay for $120, easy to adjust, sharper turn in over blown stockers. No complaints. The new ones are pretty expensive tho. I have to agree about the bushings, solid or not, rubber is rubber IMO.

well, im going with one that has the dust boot over the Hine joint... thats why I need to replace my tension arms cuz they are caked and frozen with dirt and grit
