J's roll center adjusters
 
just wanted to know how many of you are running these and if it made a significant difference.

i did a search but nothing good came up. just AJR selling them.

it adjusts the front arm levels since the car lowered. reduce understeers a lot IMO.

its very pricy as well.

they are a pain in the ass to install, and they are expensive but it makes your car feel more like it was supposed to be lowered from the factory. the drawbacks of them are, if you get a flat in the front, you cant use the spare tire. you will ruin your spare tire and the ball joints if you put the spare on. they are a PAIN IN THE ASS to install, and i mean shitty. i had one set but the anodized ring came loose and binded the ball joint in my control arm. i had to buy a new control arm and new roll center adjusters. just when you put them in, put some of the strongest loctite around the ribs that contact with the control arm and you will be good. ive never had problems with my sway bar end links being too short or too long because of them too. its a good investment but have a pro put them in and check them after a couple 100 miles to make sure they are sitting okay.

yea but its almost worth it just to buy the control arm with the ball joint already in it. like this.
thats what i would do if i had to buy a third set. the control arm from honda isnt the strongest of metal and if you dont use the proper press fitting, it WILL bend the shit out of your control arm.

it should. i dont think the differences between the suspension of the jdm vs usdm fit is that drastically different. i think the main difference is the lower perch and thats it. i could be wrong but i doubt im wrong.
