Noticed that in the mag myself, pretty interesting.... would love to hear some technical details about them.... I didn't realise standard lower arms/bushes were holding us back in the first place???

I'm a Noltec supplier
I haven't had any Torana updates yet
If you find some part #'s I'll find some prices out

[LXCHEV]

rory, the ad mentions the HQ series Holden's and LH/X Torana's.

2wild4u - will be interested to hear what you find out.

hi has anyone seen the new noltec kits in the new street machine mag, they are for the lower control arms and allow adjustment of camber and caster, bloody brilliant 


For what?

I'll have to have a look.

This could be a neat way of overcoming the issue with not being able to remove enough neg camber to run the H series stubs on the Torana front ends and could save you having to change to UC upper control arms to get more castor or even just to even up your shim stack.

I saw very similar ones for the Chev's on the Global west suspension site except they were just for castor adjustment.
I am planning a similar thing for my lower control arms except I plan to use standard width bushings but widen the brackets on the subframe 10mm forward.

Find out how much adjustment you get on them and report back

I'm on the case..... thats in my price book but not in the catalogue
So I'll see what I can find out

[dattoman]

You went with red bushes....... so phhhhhhhht

When I get them I'll get pics and specs

[dattoman]

They aren't exchange arms
Just offset centred bushes

On the noltec website
Lower control arm - inner (eccentric adjustable) F N52491

No pic
I have pricing but its an out of date disc (list on the old disc is $147)
I should have new pricing next week

Welby also has red bushes.... but I'm sure a couple of blue ones won't hurt

[dattoman]

Welby will only have a chance of winning if he can stop

And I control the stop around here

And you'll all want blue sooner or later when your reds crack and fall apart

[Toranamat69]

These offset bushes will also help move the front wheels away from the back edge of the wheel arch when you add extra castor, rather than moving it closer which is what happens if you add castor using the upper control arms.

Will also help the Torana turning circle ever so slightly as well.

They have all sorts of hidden advantages.

Oh great God of Stop.

Happy to look at anything that will further the cause.

Still think the Secret Weapon is the key to success.
