Okay so I just realized I was mistaken when i said that SPL parts had horrible customer service that was actually another company with a similar name that I had the problems with. In fact SPL is one of the best customer service ive talked too. When my endlinks broke on my car last year they sent me new ones within days and in time for my next autox. They are a good company that makes great parts, prob some of the most durable stuff on the market. Having said all of this and having talked to some guys on the forums and talking to SPL, we are returning the SPC arms and rods and will be getting everything through SPL.

Here is a possible list of what we will get for them

· SPL Front Upper Control Arms
· SPL Front Lower Arm Bushings
· SPL Front Compression Rod Bushings
· SPL Front Outer Tie Rod Ends
· SPL Rear Toe Arms
· SPL Rear Knuckle Monoball Bushings
· SPL Differential Mount Bushings
· SPL Adj. Rear End Links

And before i get the comments, yes putting the intake manifold was pointless since we have to take it off again but we are puttling my old one on a Z, and it looks pretty and if i didnt put it on then you guys wouldnt be looking at the beautiful pics of it hahah

From the blog:

Its finally 2011 and that means its time to start building at the SOHO Motorsports shop! We are still waiting on a few critical pieces and since I had a racers banquet to attend that afternoon we did a few things to get the build started. We first stripped all of the seat and trunk and ended up taking nearly 200lbs off the car (before the new seats). Then we installed the new carbon fiber trunk and saved a pretty good amount of weight on that as well. Then while the guys from Soho where doing that I took the original intake manifold / plenum with Motordyne spacer and mrev2 setup off the car. We will most likely be putting this on another one of our street Z's. Then we finished the short day off with installing the absolutely beautiful Cosworth intake manifold and we mocked up the APR GTC 300 rear spoiler, which mounts very close to flush to the edge of the trunk so we may need to make some sort of bracket on the inside of the trunk. Here are a few preview pics and you can find the rest of the photos for the build on flickr or on facebook.

Let me know how your results are with the Cosworth. We ran one on my race car and lost power with it. Found much better results with the MREV spacer.

ive heard bad things for it on N/A but ive heard good things, better than the mrev2 w/ spacer when boosted. And we are gonna be f/i so we shall see. We will prob test the diff

G35 Build Day 2 -

Well the turbo is all mocked up and going to go get a custom midpipe made. We ran into a few fitment issues on some things this weekend but we dealt with them and got a pretty decent amount of work done! Check out the pics from what we did this weekend and check out the blog for a full build update - http://kparlettracing.blogspot.com/

Day 3 and 4 of the build Started on Friday by pulling the front clip off the car and pulling the motor. Today we finally got to put in the beautiful SPL Solid bushings on the front half of the car and we pulled the rear diff to mock up the new Quaiffe diff. And right now we are tearing the engine apart. If anyone is wondering why the random order of the build its because we are waiting on a good amount of part on backorder so we are doing what we can. Here some pics from the past two days.
