Remenber that the euro is high vs the $ and Europe is very expensive. I really think it is cheaper to get on in the US.

Rear lower A-arm problems
I was curious if anyone has run into the same problem I am having with the rear lower A-arms and pillow balls? It seems as though if I just brush up against a board (not smack hard) it pushes the rear pillow ball into the A-arm causing a toe-out effect. I even super glued it and that didn't work. I am thinking about threading in a set screw in before I screw in the pillow ball to act sort of like a stopper. But out of all the vehicles I have owned and raced, I have never ran into this problem. Any suggestions would be very appreciated. Thanks

Hey
Yeah, I had the same problem and I believe that the problem was with the rear lower arms... manufacturing problem.... anyway, I changed the arms and have no problem... to be safe.. I also used the Mugen upgrade pivot balls...

don't worry too much on getting all the oils from the get go....
the kit comes with all the fluids that you need to bulid the car. Start with the baseline set-up that the kit provides and test THIS on your track to get a feel (rear diff @ 30K), I feel your changes should not veer off too far from the stock set-up...
you'll love the car! Drive Hard....
