bersh, they are cheap, but appear to be built somewhat decently.

also from what i understand they are SAE threaded ends which means QA1/Aurora ends can be fitted, should the cheaper heims fail.

no doubt they are made in taiwan or something similar and not in the USA/Japan like SPL, Battle Version, Parts Shop Max...

but at least enjuku has their back...

eh, go for it.

but dont be a dummy, get a REAL (RT Tuning) alignment once its together... none of this local alignment crap we have around here. what a joke.

check out the yamato garage website and the suspension parts they offer and search around in the forums , they seem to be built very well and are a few bucks more but in my opinion they are worth it. im not going to get into a whos got better parts debate or start an arguement im just trying to help a fellow 240 guy out. check them out thats all im saying.

they use qa1 end links and are beefey as hell. all i can say is if you are interested in the yamato garage arms like anything else do alot of searching before you buy and see what other people that have run these parts are saying about them and how they have held up , then buy what you feel is the best parts for the buck. like i said im not gonna compare parts and try and tell you who's parts are good and who's parts are not but from what i found when i searched there is no doubt i made the right choice buying the yamato garage stuff. just do some research and im sure you will be happy with whatever you buy, just stay away from some ebay stuff that made from pot metal as you dont want to risk your life to save a buck.

i second that motion... i have KTS Coils and SPL RUCA's, i will only buy stuff from SPL when it comes to suspension, b/c that is the one thing you never want to fail on you while driving and/or drifting. Something on your suspension break and makes you kiss a wall, say bye bye to the entire car...

PFFSSSH... Kuah's customer service is second to none. He just shipped out new RUCA arms for me because the set I have aren't as good as the new set he has developed. My current set hasn't broken or damaged in any way. NO ONE doesn't that in this industry.

I've used Battle Version arms on my car since I began this whole drifting thing. The only other part I've ever had is my current tension rod set up, which is Parts Shop Max.

I'd suggest Battle Version 100%.

Great parts.

I ran Circuit sports stuff in the rear for awhile just while i was waiting for my PBM stuff to arrive. IMO They were pretty scary just because they werent that beefy, I didnt like looking under my car and seeing a pencil attached to the subframe/rear spindle device. Im sure they would definitely hold up depends on what you are doing though but mentally i couldnt push my car as hard knowing those parts were holding it together.

I believe its worth the money going with a higher brand but if youre just looking for something then go with whatever catches your eye. Ive seen good reviews on the ISIS stuff and Ken backs it up a lot they have tested the ISIS stuff on track cars etc. If you were to have a problem with an arm breaking im sure Ken would definite replace it so that shows that hes supportive of the product.
