Front Upper Control Arm Talk

[Run-It-Hard]

Alrighty I'm in need of a little help/advice on the "awesome" upper control arm layout on Skylines and Stageas.

I tend to have a problem with mine hitting the chassis. Refer to picture below, red circle is where it hits.

at the moment it hits on potholes and other major imperfections on the road, never hit it on the track (more-so coming off track).

I'm currently running 2 piece adjustable camber arms as you can see, they measure 32mm wide. Pretty chunky (not as chunky as OEM though, coming in at 40mm).

So I've been looking into ways to solve this problem, as I ultimately want to go another 30mm lower.

I've noticed the Cusco camber arms look to be half the thickness of the 2 piece arms, would anyone have a set lying around that they could measure up for me?

I'm keen on getting cusco just for the fact that you dont need to rip them apart to adjust the camber, these ones suck balls!

Next question that's been on my mind. Is it possible to notch that section and re-enforce it ? I take it that section would be some what structual so I'm not so sure it's a good idea.

Anyone experienced and overcome this problem before?
