There are no issues with fitment. the steering arms do not differ from japan spec and US spec.

Remember to get an alignment after your install.

I got mine from Speedstar racing for $260..I am getting these because my car is dropped 3.5 inches in front with -4 deg neg camber and my tie rod ends are as short as they will go, but it is still not short enough so I am getting nasty toe in issues..The J's racing units have much more threading and therefore can be made shorter than stock=greater toe adjustment..aka-0 Toe
