Hey Weapon F, did you ever get yours? You have not said anything since 4-12 (almost a month ago).

I showed these to a engineer today and he said they could be made for about $100 made from titanium but would want to make them by the 100

I spoke with Dave a week ago...It seems he is still waiting for them to come from Japan...

Weapon F

Nothing yet last time I spoke to Steven from VIP two weeks ago he said the the guy Japan that make part was in hospital, I'll call them on Monday and find out the status.

Hey mcauley let me know how you got yours so quick, I would be interested in going Thur company that you purchased them from or if your engineer friend would like to reproduce them I would be interested in purchasing set from him instead pm if you get chance thanks

Titanium? You wouldn't even need titanium. It'll just cost more for nothing except bragging right.

I'm sorry if I'm being too brutal, but $300 is hard to swallow for something so elementary. I made a set for my other car a few years ago using aluminum 6061-T6 for the block with chromoly steel for the sleeves that slides into the balljoint. Total cost was less than $30, and that's for one pair. If I bought a large bulk of material, I'm sure the cost would have gone down tremendously. The only thing that cost more was my time. Best of all, I made mine in the US and didn't have to overnight it from Japan

If anyone has access to a machine shop, you can surely make it, or get it made for cheap.

I agree these could be made for very little money

so easy to fit and i do not think it will change the camber or anything

DCoolBeans

Mcauley: which size did you get?

To the guys that say you can have these made for cheap.....make em

the 2 sizes come you fit a 10mm or 15mm or the both at 25mm i put them both in. these will fit the is 250 and 350
ill take them back out when im doing the breaks and get some made, ill send a set over to someone.

Static camber does change slightly depending on the thickness of the adapters. What you want to look out for is the change in dynamic camber. If you have measurements of the stock pivot points (UCA and LCA), you can calculate the new camber curve by analyzing the 4-bar linkage system.

Are these the same as for the GS/IS?

So you technically lowered the front end by 25mm. The front looks perfect. This is how this car should have came from the factory. How about the ride quality? Same as factory?

the ride is no different at all. yes this is how it should have come.
