SPL Parts Front Upper Camber & Caster Arms for R35 Nissan GT-R

The Nissan GTR R35 Front Upper Control Arms feature dual chassis mount adjusters for simultaneous camber and caster adjustments while attached to the vehicle. Their innovative slotted arm design eliminates the need for cumbersome jam nuts. Adjusting the arm length is straightforward using the hex cap Double Adjusters, and the alignment settings are secured with an allen wrench. This design significantly reduces alignment time, allowing more time for driving. The arms include a robust Spherical Bearing for the upright mount, offering enhanced strength and preventing rod end bending, a common issue in other designs. They offer a broad adjustment range, ideal for racers seeking maximum track grip or for street vehicles requiring optimal tire wear due to lowering.

The arms, crafted from CNC milled 6061-T6 Billet Aluminum using Finite Element Analysis (FEA), surpass the strength and durability of standard factory arms. The unique hex cap Double Adjuster, made of electroless nickel plated 4130 Chromoly and 6061-T6 Aluminum clamps, minimizes weight, resists corrosion, and facilitates easy adjustments. The high-quality USA-made FK Spherical Bearings incorporate a Teflon liner, ensuring quiet operation, reduced friction, smooth articulation, and bushing deflection elimination under load. This liner is self-lubricating and self-cleaning, guaranteeing reliable performance for both street and track applications.

Adjustment Ranges

• In a 2010 GT-R test car that had been lowered by one inch, the team managed to achieve -5 degrees of camber with 5.9 degrees of caster. When the car was adjusted to -4 degrees of negative camber, they could attain 8 degrees of caster. Further adjustment to -3.5 degrees of camber allowed for 7.7 degrees of caster. Camber correction was recorded at 0 degrees of camber with 5.8 degrees of caster.
