    I would be buying the PA mildsteel (DD car is mildsteel is my best bet).

    The K member and motor mounts and spring perches with shipped come to 360ish. Like I said I will be running stock springs and a arms. I would be buying from Matt Hill Motorsports. Matt is the man, he is the one who tunes my car. A very good stand up guy.

    I would love Dan to chime in and give me his thoughts I PMd him earlier. I don't know if the unit he sells works with stock a arms. I also wondered if he sells any brands. I doubt since they make there own.

    I work for PSR...since Dan is snoozing on the long weekend I'll answer as best I can.

    PA will always be in the lead concerning units sold. Dan designed this unit from the ground up based on what he liked from other K members and what he wanted from his own design. PSR's K-member setup concentrates on 3 things: strength, weight, and clearance/fitment.

    IMO this K-member really shines in the turbo department with a non OEM exhaust manifold, and this is one of the top three reasons it exists. This is where the K-member will make its name for itself. There are currently 6 turbo cars being done at the shop with the PSR K setup, and a couple of local non-turbo cars with the unit as well. In addition, Stormin Norman and Sambandit are also running PSR units. Finally, it's also holding up in excellent fashion to the Silver shop car slamming it up and down.

    You need coil overs, MM or equivalent caster camber plates and PSR arms to run the PSR K-Member.

    If you'd like, we can take care of you in w/e decision you make. 602-269-8955 ask for James (me).

    If you'd like, On3Motorsports (PSR's parts department) can take care of you in w/e decision you make. 602-269-0029 ask for Dustin and tell him I (James at PSR) sent you.
    Thanks for the repsonse man. I have no plans of going turbo. I also don't plan on doing the a arms or coilovers anytime soon. It all boils down to money. Only reason I am doing the k member is because I am doing the longtubes. Ill contact Dustin at On3Motorsports to see if they sell other brands. Thanks for all your help guys!

    QA1 = no comments. Someone else who is neutral can comment about QA1 quality.

    As far as MM, MM is a road course unit and that is where it really shines. AFAIK it also weighs more than any other K-Member save the OEM unit. If I was looking for a 100% duty street/strip K-Member, MM would not be my first choice or my second. It's an excellent piece but there are lighter alternatives with equivalent straight line strength out there if you're a 99% straight liner.

    But you already know this cause you have a MM unit...

    Good to know.

    I know what I've read, I haven't driven my car yet!
    Just after I swapped the suspension, I got into the engine, and haven't got it back yet from the tuner.

    Just wanting to know more about the other K members out there.
    So it sounds like it's more of a Drag Racing, weight saving unit?

    What would be your first or second choice?

    Right now it is a straight line unit. We may get bored and add some cross-beam steel pieces for triangulation but don't hold your breath.

    PSR, PA, D and D would be my top 3 personal choices in order.
