depends more on what you're trying to do with it. (i know you're drifting but how?) for example, I have full cusco arms because i did not slam my car, and I wanted good quality parts that will keep things working properly without having to worry too much about a super effed rollcenter. however, if you're going to want your car to be stupidly low, and still have good rollcenter i would definitely look at the PBM stuff because that's how their stuff is designed they help you slam your car and not have it handle like complete crap. as for the SPL stuff, they seem pretty strong (some companies actually preffer a good but breakable arm to save things like subframes, etc. rather than SPL's full blown beef equipment) but I have no experience with anything other than their eccentric lockout kits, so i can't say on those. also might want to look into companies as well and figure out which is going to suit your needs the best and which one you feel comfortable spending the money on before jumping the gun imho. hope this helped.

Killer wasn't trying to mislead you. What he was trying to say is that you're looking at great quality parts and it's really just a matter of preference.

It's the little things that will make the choice. Whichever way you go, you are guaranteed quality.
