Can anyone comment on which ebay 6pcs rear suspension arm kit to get? Are they all basically the same? Godspeed is one, JDM parts is another. Most are priced around 3-350. Thanks!

I bought the Godspeed one in red and with my wheels and tire combo it seems to fit fine.
rear tires/wheels are 255/35-18 on XXR 18 x 8.75's
I think I paid $225 a year ago.

Godspeed owner here... had to trim down the bushings, they are slightly too wide for the FF5 suspension pickups. Also had to get 8mm spacers. He wheels I have (from an old WRX; not much wider than stock) had interference issues with the trailing arms.
Like Harley, paid $225 last year. If I had to do it over again, I'd look into another source since the price differential now is less than last year, and I think Wayne's parts fit a lot better. Also, I think FF5 started offering lateral link kits with really nice hardware (matches the upper link).

I ordered the adjustable lateral link offered as an option from FFR. It is a very nice piece. It is only the rear lower link though, but not sure you'd need a front lower adjustable link. And of course, there is no FFR option that I'm aware of for an adjustable rear control arm. Wayne's version is what I bought.

I bought the Ebay ones and sent them to Wayne, for a total cost of ~$350 (trailing arms and links, with shipping and money to modify them to Wayne). I think it's the same thing you're talking about. If I had to do it again at this point I'd buy from Wayne :) Mine are close to fitting with 17x9+35 wheels and will fit with Wayne's modification.
