Gotta go Faster
On checking out the car, found that the right rear Front A arm bushing had a split going almost all the way around. Is it worth upgrading by going to a BMR A arm (adjustable or not?) or just get a upgraded bushing kit??

twistedneck said:Did the issues with your rack start AFTER you changed control arm bushings? That seemed to be the case on the Vorshlag car..
steveespo said:GTs '11 and '12 have the rack nibble vibration issue with urethane or spherical bearings up front, mine did and changing to the FRPP rack cured it. I've heard of Boss cars having it but not many, if you have you know it, it's like someone is moving the steering shaft back and forth an inch twice per second. It's not a vibration.

twistedneck said:Thanks for clearing that up steveespo. I have a 2012 GT and i was about to upgrade front control arms and bushings to Boss 302s w/ urethane.. at this point i'm going to hold off on that until i can afford the FRPP rack. Glad i followed this thread.
