[drated]

What are the following parts and what do they do because i want to track me car some day or can someone recommend the minimum for track ?

what is Rear trailing arm ?
Lower control arm ?
Upper control arm ?

and pics of them installed ?

obviously these are gonna be all aftermarket parts but are they much different to stock..?

Oh yea its gonna be on a honda civic em1

you dont need any of those to track your car,

your better off investing in a set a gauges, brake upgrade and a set of semi's.

on rear suspension parts, lower arm is also called lower control arm (lca) and the upper arm can also be called upper control arm.

i think they are used to adjust like toe(compensator arm), camber(upper control arm) settings if using aftermarket parts that are adjustable.

um.. yeah like that lol

thanks mate, what sort of gauges would you recommend me getting ?

[kriZy]

what are guages for?
isnt the guages where your dash board enough?

you're better off just getting replacement bushes for your car, new brake pads, decent tyres and a decent shock/spring combo

thats probably the minimum i'd do

heard it was alotta effort to change all the bushing , how many bushes are there and how much is it ?

or wot are the essential ones to change

[vinnY]

essential ones are probably the front and rear lower control arms and also the trailing arm bushes

Change them if they are worn. If they are not worn, then you don't have to.

if you arent sure what these parts are, then you need to so alot more research before tracking the car,
