I hope these pics can help can help give you an idea of what you want to do with your rear end set up...All the blue components you see on my car's rear end are fully adjustable...

All the blue parts are Megan Racing with the exception of the adjustable lower control arms which are made by Eau Rouge (Japanese Company).

Yes, a spilling of the beans would be nice. Although I did some pricing and they are not much cheaper than Ikeya arms.

In all seriousness, not much is needed. Proper alignment, 305+ tires and a proper rear end. I'd do subframe and diff bushings also. 1400 on the street is serious. My friend does 1100 all day on 315 and a pretty stock rear end. Just search Red Devil on here for his setup.

I heard Ikeya arms are the best, is this true?

So how far along on your 1400hp sc build are you ?

Ill take a wild guess and say you havent even started yet?

The rear end is going to be the least of your worries man.

In case anyone cared, I purchased the Eau Rouge Adjustable lower control arms from DriftSpeed.com, They can definitely get them for you, No problems at all.

Oh wow Matt! Totally digging the Rear UCA and the rest of your set up...I was thinking about picking up a pair of the TC Sportline rear UCA, but heard about quality issues...How are they holding up so far?
