chronoJ1: they help the camber on lowered cars
this is a far more wallet friendly upgrade in comparison to the IKEYA's and the JIC's
I'll have to see how much more money I'll be spending on my SC this month, this is definitely on my list of things to get

i found these orginally on fleabay through a different vendor they werent sportlines they were some no name brand in new zeland for a little cheaper i will have to say beware im running them on my car which fixed my camber wear but my ride feel has gotten stiffer aswell as i hear suspenion noise "squeaking "from the ball joints that connect to the spindle while driving on the freeway at times if you can live with that get them but i would get the kit from tm daizen or vest in the real deal JDM stuff jic etcc, its jus to bad i ve ordered my kit from Daizen last year and i am yet to recieve it he didnt bill me nor answer the f'n million of emails and voicemails when his box is not full to check status for my kit but if any has tried these tc sports which look exactly what im running but painted in a different color let me know i cant bear to hear the squeaking as i use my car for work and drive 150 miles a day in it with radio loud to drown the noise out

are the rears different on a SC400? They would not fit a 300...right.
The fronts i would have got when I did mine. I have all brandnew arms that are just sitting on the car with maybe 1 mile on them from the moving to wash it.
Nice find. I would love to get rid of the ball joint and put the hexjoints on all of them.

those are just standard hiem joints with a male end. You could easily replace them with an upgraded self lubricating end for less then $40
another big question is should you want to upgrade those bushings in them what bushings is it they accept

don't mean to thread jack here, (well maybe i do)
if anybodys looking for daizen stuff i got a whole load of parts,
1. front and rear upper control arm bushings camber kit
2. front and rear control arm bushings.
Everything is brand new in box. I got it all way back when from tm engineering, but i ended up coming across some new control arms and just bought those for the easy install. I'm planning on posting all that in the classifieds if anyones interested, just pm me.
