    The conceptua kit is superior to both ams and dw. Using a poly bushing in place of the ball joint is a poor design as it allows flex and thus toe will change as the bushing flexes.

    Use conceptua or midori
    oh hai!

      Flex??..........really? Have you ever worked with poly? There is no flex if the bushing is designed properly with the pre-crush that is required.

      Besides, so what if there is a touch of toe-in on the outside rear, it's like having HICAS again and steering the rear into your turn. Cuts down on a whole lot of clunking and banging too.

          Go with driftworks and support innovation. I've put 25,000KM on my set with 3 full trackdays in the middle. Still solid and shiny like the day I installed it!



          Don't support knock-offs that won't put the work to engineer or innovate! leeches...

          Ironically, driftworks is still a better treat for your wallet than AMS's price right now LUL!

              Remove the hicas, pull all wiring and hardware.
              How are your subframe bushings? I have the same setup as M13 but some brsnd names different. I do have the driftworks brackets and I'm happy with the set up. Only thing is with everything being tight it's put more stress on the subframe and the bushings which have 190,000km on them and are pretty worn. I can feel the rear unstable in turns and equivalent of a piss off to body roll. New away bars and sway bar bushings will make a big difference. I'm due also
              Just somethin to think about in the future incase you run into the same issue
