Spoon Rigid Collars NCP91

[aeipee13]

Just wanted to dig up this old thread because the Spoon Rigid Collars are the truth. Almost feels like the car has been spot welded. Everything works better suspension-wise and you can really feel it during turns and when you hit an unexpected bump.

I recently added whiteline control arm bushings and had to remove one of the collars but the hardware provided with the whiteline bushings are nearly the same idea. Whiteline tightens up the play between the control arm bushing, bolt, and crossmember using the bushing itself and washers on the top and bottom that have a little lip serving as a "collar" between the bolt hole and the bolt.

I know people call bullshit but think about suspension geometry and all the vibrations and wiggling that goes on. If you still don't understand drive someone's yaris with collars and be amazed.

I got mine from RHDjapan but there are plenty on options online. RHDJapan is a grey market importer and they are 100% legit.

Of course you pay for products like this and people will say whatever they want about price but rigid collars are worth it. I've been using mine for over 2 years now and have no issue other than being faster in turns.

I am firm believer if an upgrade makes the driver more confident and happier behind the wheel, F@*k whatever anyone else thinks.
