Hey All

Just wondering if anyone here is using the Cusco Pillowball topmounts on their R?

I am using the Whiteline camber bolts to dial in some negative camber at the moment, although they are quite a clever idea and probably okay for general road use they are not up to the battering that my suspension has been taking on the track and various sprints & hillclimbs - hence need re-adjusting an awful lot = huge hole in my wallet for 4 wheel tracking.

Also am I correct in assuming that they are a direct replacement for the complete top mount and the pillowball assembly just replaces the suspensions rubber bushing. Hence no expensive new suspension? :?

They replace the whole topmount and eliminate the rubber bushing.They make it a very hard ride but the steering feels much more direct,

Ithink that's what I have? :oops:
Not sure, the car came with them fitted.

Matty might know, he clocked at them at PTS

They managed to accomodate the full 75mm drop with my lowering springs :shock:

pillowball top mounts basically replace your rubber suspension top mount with an alloy plate and a bearing. Hence, you get pinpoint handling and a really rough ride as well as you are removing any cushioning from your suspension that left :p

The TEIN units have a facility to adjust the cars camber. (an alternative to the whiteline camber bolts)
