Default MEGAN Racing rear LCAs?

Has anyone had any experience with these for 92-95 civics? I'm just curious...because they look like they're exactly based off of the SRR rear LCAs, but a bit cheaper in price.

http://www.meganracing.com/pro...d=159

the only thing I don't like is the fact that they say their LCAs correct negative camber...I didn't think that these aftermarket type LCAs had that purpose...the only reason i'd get it is for the hole for a rear sway bar...which this has, right?

what do you guys think?...and if you're gonna say.."you get what you pay for..." I'll be a bit skeptical, because if its the same material and such..how much different can they be? thanks guys.

Yes, they have swaybar holes, yes, they look higher quality than the stock play-doh LCA's that come on our cars and no, they don't seem to have any kind of negative camber adjustment built in. Buy them .

can you definately verify that they are the same length as stock?the only reason i hadn't tried to get a set yet is because i don't want them to be any shorter than stock,and the site claims they are.

they're confused... IT IS IDENTICAL, you have my word as an upgrade freak. i got mine on ebay for 109 shipped =oD

i was actually dissapointed, cause i wanted them to bring my wheel in a bit to correct some camber w/ my 5 lug it sticks out a hair more then usual, no go. DEFINATELY OEM SPECS.

Do these LCAs come with new bushings? Or do you re-use the stock ones?

Whats the weight difference from the OEM LCA's? I know that the SRR LCA's save you 2 pounds for each LCA.

They come with quick-disconnect bushings (allen-key) so that if you tear one up autocrossing or sieze a bolt in one of them you can get them out without using a 12-jigaton press. It's convinient and very intelligent. My D2's have the same kind of bushing setup and I love it .

For the Megan Racing LCA's what application did you buy to put on your 99 Hatch? I own a 97 EK Hatch and would like to purchase a set for myself. Thank you.

Just confirming...

I bought a set of these off ebay as well. The bushing spacing is the exact same as stock.

For about $100 they seemed worth it, considering I needed some GSR arms anyway.
