Looking at getting some adj camber arms for f+r

Can only find places with Cusco/Tein for my car.

And i have checked Nengun/Greenline/PerfectRun

Where can i see some Ikeya Formula products?

Or do any of our sponsors stock these?

Cheers~

They seem to be good enough for street cars and low/mild track cars....we used the lower control arms for our r33 and ran out of adjustment and also found the balljoint was at the wrong angle, as soon as we went past -3 degrees of camber the balljoint bound up and wouldnt turn....had to modify the suckers so we could get a descent amount of adjustment out of them.

After using their lower control arms and finding how limited they were in adjustment, it makes me wonder just how 'good' their stuff really is, maybe im just more the type who would rather make their own stuff to suit the situation.

Check to see how much adjustability they offer before you buy them. For a street/road car application im sure it would be good enough.

i tend to agree. the ikeya stuff doesn't really blow me away quality wise. the cusco arms i have are much nicer then the ikeya once i have. cusco ones have bigger rose joints, better (3 piece, stainless, thick shell) rose joints and just seem nicer quality. but cusco don't make 32 GTR traction rods so i used ikeya for those. don't get me wrong, i wouldn't say they are crap, but they are not amazing either.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
