Check out my new rear LINKs!






Need to get my wheel aligment tomorrow!

 

Nice, did they come with the ball joints?

 

These are with ball joints.

 

They look pretty nice! any changes in handling or for looks? guess you wont know until wheel alignment is done.

 

Sweet. Summit? Never heard of it.

 

Where did you get it from?

 

These are not ready to sale in states yet. But GT Spec will be carrying them.

 

Nice, mine are pretty old, might be looking at replacements soon. From the dealer they are expensive

 

Save yourself the money and headache, RX-8 guys. This guy, who is EVO-R the eBay seller, is as shady as they come.
Check out my sig for details.

 

There have been some bad guy threads here as well. From what i know dealing with him is a crap shoot as to whether you will get your stuff in a timely fashion but I think most eventually get the stuff.

 

He got his stuff. It was more a matter of he got stuff that didn't fit no matter how much effort/time he put into it.

 

Exactly. That and the fact that there was no customer service whatsoever. He ignored me until Paypal's 30 days were up, then denied my claim because I "modified" the headlight brackets to try to make them work. Furthermore, he has never explained himself or even posted in any thread (and there are plenty) from someone who's having problems with his Chinese parts.

So if you get your parts from him and they don't fit right out of the box, put them on a shelf for a month. THEN you can begin the crap-shoot with Paypal.

 

New links, same old sh-tty service, lol ....

 

they look nice

 

Issue resolved.

 

Not that I would want to use these for auto-x but, I wonder if they're STX legal?

 

It usually is once you finally get around to showing and communicating with people. The issue is that you disappear off the face of the earth for weeks or months at a time.

These arms aren't STX legal due to the metal/heim bearings.

 

Would you even use them if they were legal? I mean, what functional benefit will they provide?

 

I would just convert the rubber bushing ends of the rear OE suspension arms to heim joints. This is what Speedsource sells through Mazda Motorsports. It eliminates the bushing deflection under lateral suspension loading.

In the STX class you can only use non-metallic material to replace the rubber bushings like delrin, UHMW, urethane, etc. and there can't be any more metal used than the OE part for the bolt sleeve etc.
