The SPL RUA S13 replaces the factory rear upper control arm on the Nissan 240SX S13, S14, 300ZX Z32, and Skyline R32, R33, and R34 with a precision CNC machined 6061-T6 billet aluminum assembly delivering a wide range of rear camber adjustment. Built using Finite Element Analysis, the SPL RUA S13 exceeds OEM strength while reducing unsprung weight and eliminating the bushing compliance that causes dynamic camber change under hard cornering and suspension travel. PTFE-lined FK spherical rod ends eliminate bushing deflection for predictable, consistent rear alignment in both street and motorsport applications.

What platforms does the SPL RUA S13 fit?
The SPL RUA S13 is confirmed for 1989-1994 Nissan 240SX S13, 1995-1998 Nissan 240SX S14, 1990-1996 Nissan 300ZX Z32, 1989-1994 Nissan Skyline R32, 1994-1998 Nissan Skyline R33, and 1999-2002 Nissan Skyline R34. These share a common rear upper arm geometry across the S and R chassis families.
How much camber adjustment does the SPL RUA S13 provide?
The double-adjuster design provides a significantly wider range of rear camber adjustment than OEM components, allowing alignment technicians to set aggressive negative camber for track use or correct camber on lowered street builds.
Is the SPL RUA S13 street legal?
Yes. The SPL RUA S13 is a suspension alignment component and does not affect emissions or vehicle safety systems. It is suitable for street use in all 50 states. A professional alignment is required after installation.
Do I need special tools to adjust camber with the SPL RUA S13?
No special tools are required. Loosen the titanium clamp hardware, rotate the 4130 chromoly double adjuster to change length, and retighten. The 360-degree rotating clamp design eliminates the need for jam nuts and allows adjustment with the arm still on the vehicle.
Can I use the SPL RUA S13 on a drift build?
Yes. The SPL RUA S13 is widely used in drift applications on S13 and S14 240SX platforms. The wide camber adjustment range accommodates aggressive negative camber setups typical of drift alignment configurations.
How do I set the correct length when installing the SPL RUA S13?
Place the SPL RUA S13 next to the OEM arm and adjust to match the factory center-to-center length before installation. Final camber is set on a four-wheel alignment rack. The groove on one end of the adjuster indicates the left-hand threaded side.
Does installing this product affect my factory warranty?
Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer cannot void your powertrain warranty solely because you installed an aftermarket suspension component, unless they can demonstrate it directly caused the failure. Consult your dealer for your specific situation.
Are replacement rod ends available for the SPL RUA S13?
Yes. SPL Parts offers replacement right-hand and left-hand threaded FK rod ends for service intervals or damage replacement. These are available directly from SPL Parts or authorized dealers.

Control arms are the key suspension linkages that connect the wheel hub and knuckle assembly to the vehicle frame, controlling wheel travel through both compression and droop cycles. Worn OEM control arms with loose ball joints or deteriorated bushings cause vague steering, tire wear, and handling inconsistency that only go away with replacement or upgrade.Popular UpgradesTubular steel upper control arms for lifted trucks and SUVs are the most popular upgrade in the control arm category, correcting the geometry compromised by a suspension lift and restoring proper caster angle and ball joint centering. Adjustable upper control arms allow alignment angles like caster and camber to be dialed in precisely after a lift or lowering modification. Replacement lower control arms with polyurethane or solid aluminum bushings improve response and longevity compared to worn OEM rubber mounts.Why do I need new control arms after a lift kit?A suspension lift changes the angle at which the OEM upp...
