Well if any of you have been keeping up with my members journal youll see i installed some battle version tension rods and made my own nismo power brace.

Just took it for a spin and right away i could tell a huge difference just by going through a 10mph turn.

If your thinking about buying suspension parts get some tension rods asap

I would of had the same thing if it didnt take so long for them to get here. After like 2 months I called them back and said nvm. Glad you are happy with yours tho.

then post this in your members journal. dont make a new thread about it.

this is REVIEWS so review the part. part numbers, model, build shipping speed, service, quality, install comments, and saying a "huge difference" doesnt mean anything. what did they change? how exactly does the car handle differently. come on now.

what does shipping speed have to do with a tech review about the part?


anyways, they fit perfectly into place no hassle with installation. Performance wise the car "sticks" to the road a lot better, braking feels more stable. The front end in general feels more solid while turning or braking under any circumstance.

dude with the quality btwn those i dont think it matters just get the cheapest/not on back order out of those and youll be straight. Really the big difference from any of these and cheaper made ones are the actual pillow ball mounts the quality of these bearings are what is sacrificed on the cheapers ones. Or at least thats what i can see

what causes the arms or any other suspension part to fail?

is it the heim joint?

materials mostly. diameter of the material in relation to the diameter of the threaded shank of the heim joint, etc
