haha i along with driftage...purchase many things from phase2 and have the pleasure of knowing the sales reps personally to a small extent. i have also met mike...the owner of CS and use his exhaust, hangers, quick release, and RUCA's...those of u comparing them to megan just because of the price...thats not really a good comparison...run both arms then compare them...ive already bought my whole suspension setup from megan and personally i wouldnt buy them again...my megan RUCAs are already bent to shit and their tie rod ends totally suck...CS on the other hand has been good to me for a damn long time yes they havent been in the market very long but long enough for me to compare to others

BUY CIRCUIT SPORTS PARTS!!!!!!!!! haha

battle version parts are well beyond the quality of CS suspension pieces. I picked up the coolant piece last week at option imports since phase2 was outta stock. I'm looking into the CS cobra downpipe. nice to see a readily available piece that d-max and hpi regularly have available overseas. The sheer fact that CS answered a common problem with s13 owners and the coolant resevoir situation is ingenious. I'm considering getting the strut/trunk bars as well. i wonder if a difference will be noticed by them.

Argh...

All you guys knocking Chinese knock off parts.

You do realize that if you peeled back all the veils and company names and all that, you'd find a few people responsible for copying/knocking off of the parts, then the factory that makes these parts, make it to their specs, right?

There are some amazing quality stuff that come out of China, but the saying "you gotta pay to play" rings true over there too, so when you have a guy paying for the knock off parts, he wants it made as cheap as possible, then sell it for as much as he can, to maximize his profits.

So, really, the guy that's responsible for copying these parts then submitting the blueprints to the factory that makes all these copied parts, is the guy to blame. Nothing to do with the fact that "if it's Chinese it's crap".

I just think it's absurd to call a country and anything and everything that comes out of it, crap, due to ignorant asses spewing raw sewage from their mouths, or in this case, raw sewage typed out by people's fingers.

That's like saying America is crap because their cars fall apart in no time and are of generally a lesser build quality than some imported cars.

definitely +1 for alex and battle version, the battle version components are top notch and i'd use them as well. Actually i'd prefer them over CS, much stronger rod ends and chrome moly. Good stuff and alex is very good at setting up alignments.

I know this is a 2 yr old post... but yea, most china crap is CRAP indeed... Just ask home owners in FL that can't live [at] home b/c of "Made i CHINA" drywall. It causes nose bleeds, and kills babys. Google it.

BTW...^^this guy is Chinese.
