Re: (silkk)
Good enough if you happen to never have a problem with them... customer service might be something to consider in your decision as well. You never know when something might be defective, have an issue, or even down to installation help or setup help.silkk wrote:His stuff are decent. It's not as good as SPL but its good enough.
They don't even take the time to correct errors in their descriptions of their products. They don't design any of their products (they copy them from other people like us, Do-Luck). They also have very little knowledge in how the product can be used to properly setup the car.
Sometimes just buying a part isn't just buying a part... would you buy a new car that was 2k cheaper but it had no warranty? Had no manufacturer backing what-so-ever?

i agree with wat Alan said exactly... also... you don't know exactly the quality of the ebay products... they could even be pics they stole from somewhere.... if it was me, i wouldn't even think about it... my life is too important to me to have some cheap suspension part fail when im driving down the highway in the rain or wat not... or drivin around a track, or anything... its just not worth the risk in something i cant trust.

Charlie / driftheaven uses all the C-tune stuff on his cars, and he does great he purposely was doing dirt drop drifts, and dropping wheels over the apex into the dirt and such to test them and they all held up fine. Another plus side for me is that I see him fairly often so if something broke i could just go see him and get a replacement.
That said, I don't know if i'd use it personally, but I wouldn't turn my back on them completely.

thanks for your opinions, they are apreciated. the only reason i was really looking at them was because im trying to find what items i would need for camber adjustment for my car. for the front i am going to get some camber plates, and in the rear i wasnt sure what i needed. is a rear upper control arm what i need and who sells a good one for a good price?
