Here's a pic of the first Exact prototype RCAs. The production versions look the same except the finish is nicer and they are anodized black. The kit also comes with longer grade 12 bolts. I believe the thickness of these RCA's adds about a one inch drop to the front.

When they first came out, about 5 NorCal members had Exact install these RCA's in our cars. It's almost 2 years ago, and so far no long term issues.

So are we now saying that these items will correct the front camber problem on the GSX00?

What about if we are lowered with coilovers?

here is an e-mail reply about the front upper arms

Hello Scott,

Thank you for the inquiry.

Yes, we can source you Ikeya products for you.

A set of Adjustable front upper control arms is $680 + shipping.

Approx shipping cost is $100 and takes about 2-3 weeks, if you need them soon we can ship by EMS and cost would be around $175, EAT is 1-2 weeks.



Thank you.

Unless you dump it past 4 inches there's really no need for them!

Thats interesting because myself and a lot of others were experiencing inner tire wear even with the stock suspension.

did you do a good performance alignment? I think for most people they are okay on the rear, the problem is predominantly in the front. Unless of course you really had the car slammed.

Weird....I thought more ppl had neg camber issues with their rears....not fronts.

Regardless...front or rear SS kit (RCAs) will fix the camber issues.
