Has anyone here tried the non-compliance pivot clamp, am thinking of making some but don't know if I am wasting my time?

I am sure if the matter of non compliance was brought up in the houses of parliament there would be much shuffling in seats :p

Anyway has anyone tried them as it seems to be a dirt cheap and easily reversible mod. Although locking suspension arms together that have obviously had a fair amount of design time spent on them might not be very smart?

Depending on what your end goal is, many have said that this is hard to beat and of course has the benefit of being OEM.

I have heard that it makes the car a bit harsh for bumpy roads? Good price though must admit.

I would say that the one thing to keep in mind is all the changes that take place when one starts ****ing about with the suspesion.

If I was you I'll either leave alone or upgrade the whole thing to an S or R set up.

I think he probably doesn't have it anymore, as I never received a reply to an offer I made on them.

I was going to suggest you speak to AR (NSX-R) or kowalski (full NSX-R upgrade) for real world experience of the NSX-R set up

Other option is speak to Paul (CrazymixedupKid) who has done a lot of suspension mods and uses his 3.2 daily.

Harsh it is on the NSX-R with the kevlar bucket seats, but not that much harsher than a landcruiser Amazon on Full Sport setting on the suspension. One thing to remember is that you have to balance everything or the car will handle like a pig IMO.

I'm pretty satified with my set-up. I haven't fitted any 'bars' as yet but the Nitron suspension has good compliance. Its only one way adjustable and was set-up by Plans on the track. Coming from an Elise I don't mind it being a little harsh and I dare say others might losen the adjusters to make it a tad softer. I've thought about different bars but to be honest I can run rings around pretty much anything anyway!
