gavin.starr Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 They seem to be good quality and at a reasonable price ofer replacing everything with stock items, With the added benefit of being adjustable. http://stores.ebay.co.uk/japspeed-store?_nkw=jza80&LH_TitleDesc=1 Gav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) They don't look bad quality in the construction but then it's the quality of the spherical bearings that would be the question. I bet they're cheaper than OEM Lyndon. Edited November 7, 2013 by Nodalmighty (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David P Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 They'll cause some head scratching down at your local Geometry Care & Maintenance Free Check Centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 For a rd car i'd rather have stock o/e arms, Good quality spherical bearings aren't cheap and i doubt they'll last anything like a protected ball joint will in rd use Good for a track car though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) This looks like a job for grey haired gentlemen with string and tape measures. You can get seal cups and boots for spherical bearings should you want to use them on the road.

Dnk Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I meant regarding the clattering they will take on our lovely rds, could well make the car feel very harsh too for everyday use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I have a friend with 300zx with spherical bearing suspension, solid engine and box and diff and rear sub frame. You would be surprised how good the ride/noise actually is. I had solid engine and gearbox mounts in my old MK3 Turbo and that was quite civilized. Lyndon.

fastcar Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I personally think they are cheap for a reason but then I might be wrong:search: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBDevelopments Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 can't comment on these arms but we get alot of japspeed stuff come through work and to be honest 99% of it is just junk. doesn't fit or fails shortly after. Not sure if i'd trust them just purely on past experience of this brand Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I asked a guy in the know about these and he said they are cheap Chinese junk. The only think they do that is worth a punt are their alloy radiators. Lyndon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsia Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Used to have a few Japspeed bits that came with the purchase of my old MR2, I can vouch for the general lack of quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
