tried both and are useless.....

with my suspension setting i dont really need the extra adjustments on toe..... just get good bushings. and traction control arms are cool though minor inprovement with both wheels spinning nothing amazing.

they dont do squat. but look pretty and get rid of the bushings so the ride gets harder. not tighter, but harder and bumpier. i bent and cracked my stock ones so i picked up the battler version ones, wish i seen those first, their cheaper.

worthless IMO, unless you are a die hard autocrosser or road track guy...

you can get 90% of what they give you with some poly bushings

they are quite pretty too... I would end up doing them after everything else suspension and engine was already done and I was looking for nit pick things to do... (or if there was something wrong with mine)

those parts are fuctional, but that brand and quality is crap. You should only get if you plan to drift, but not those unless you want them to break.

Kazama, Battleversion, and Max are all better

like everyone said, they're mainly for function. great for track use for the dudes who frequently have to adjust rear traction and toe settings. they look great too. for normal daily driving, better to spend that kind of money on the daizen sway bars or just get bushing replacements from tm, or new tokico shocks and any kind of drop springs.
