IRP drift kit v2 control arms
my crusty mx-5 is about to rust away from under my butt and all my bushings are just about gone. now i was already planing on changing my subframe to the v8 roadsters tube subframe to make more space and get some streed cred for the turbo build I'm doing. but I'm not putting my rusty old control arms back on there. so i was looking at new ones and came across the IRP drift kit V2. i have heard a lot of good things about there shifters but have never seen anybody run their control arms. i was wondering if anybody has any experience with them. or if should just go for the v8 roadster ones and get some drift knuckles with them.
ill be all ears for some recommendations. p.s. its not going to be a daily driver. so the heim joints should be fine for the usage its going to get. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...d027f841f5.png |

I don't see "street cred" on your flow chart. |

Most every miata owner on this forum hates people that drift miatas (which is understandable) but being one of the few drifters on this forum i can tell you that i successfully have been running destroy or die front drop knuckles and lower control arms with Poly bushings, combined with the new version of SPL tie rods. please excuse my missing front end this is my 300k mile turbo car, i will also mention that front spacers are required for this setup and 14in wheels will require a lot more spacer than 15in wheels https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...014b1938f.jpeg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...4c7a3a5bf.jpeg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...d765a682d.jpeg . |

It certainly isn't fucking yellow, that's for sure.

A simple jounce test would clearly show that those are shock mounts.

For budget a budget DIY setup you want NB bilstein sports, NB front hats, Hyperco springs, 5X Racing sleeves/perches...
These look pretty yellow to me? I would apologize for shitting up this thread, but I think this content might be better than those control arms, so /shrug |

That’s a different house and garage, because the idiots who poured the pad at his new shop didn’t make any sectional relief cuts.
