I just received them. They look great. I will install them this weekend along with new Eibachs and tokicos.

Thanks jdk_ii

I recieved and installed mine today. Bolts with a 19mm head WILL work. You just have very little clearance for tools.

A bit of a tight fit into the strut housing. The raised section around the bolt holes are fine, but I had problems with the large center section. I ended up buying some other bolts that are a full thread so I used those and the Arm-strong machine to suck the RCA's to the strut housing.

I have 25 full thread bolts and lock washers if anybody needs some.

Driving Impression: WOW! Very nice. Steering in general feels better and bump steer almost gone totally. I have GC coilovers lowering the front over an inch....I think. Hard to tell. Fender gap is about an inch. Going around a REALLY bumpy corner on my way to work pretty fast before installing the RCA's damn near jumped my car into the other lane. Not now!

Overall, I'm very satisfied!

Jim, you're the man! 8)

Cool.

I'm glad you noticed a difference and like them.

It's weird, I have three MK2 front struts in the basement,
and the larger center section fit all of them. But on my MK2,
they were really tight also.

Since I installed a new steering rack, I have no real before-after,
other that with everything installed, the steering is tight.

Don't e-mail me now, as I will probably ignore/delete it.

These sources are definitely high (or maybe just the poster)

 

[jdk_ii]

Confirmed, it's the poster.

Probably looking to exceed Zank's post numbers.

 

[Junkie]

If the sources aren't HIGH,you better call while in Seattle. 8)

 

[jdk_ii]

If it were true, I definitely pre-arrange a Seattle get-together. :wink:

I put RCA's in today Jim. The fit is excellant. no problems..

My car is a new man!! by installing Eibachs, Tokicos and the RCAs my car handles with a heck of a lot more confidence.. very little nose dive under hard braking. my car dropped about 1/2 inch because of the original springs sagging

Oh, for you guys who haven't had the lower ball joints changed in quite a whilet, you will need a strong arm with a good socket , pipe and benzene or hotter torch. WOW those 4 bolts were tough but it all ended up great.

Thanks again.

Thanks,

I need a set of RCA's, too. Passed up 1st GB due to $$ for short shifter which I got a few months ago (and to keep my wife happy for not spending too much $$ even tho it's only $50 :? ).

 

[ilovemysupramk2]

Jim,

Do you still have any RCA's left? If not, is there gonna be another GP?

Thanks,
Eric

 

[jr85mk2]

I need a set of bolts etc for the RCAs. Anybody have some for sale. Took the car for a drive, it's been a while. Me thinks it's time to give them a try.

Just instaled the RCA's after putting on the 17's a few weeks ago. The car feels much more controled and really likes taking the turns with the RCA's. Much improved, a really easy to install mod with great gains. Thanks Jim and Don. JDK Motorsports Rules! :rockon:

Now to put on a rear brace or two and get someone insterested in making a mid brace!
