Hi guys,
Been looking into some strut tops for Pips car, and have found theses....they look good, and sound like a good thing, but has anyone heard anything good or bad about them? I've only really seen the typical slider style of strut top before.
(This one is for an R31, but he does them for S13 aswell)

Re: Adjustable Strut tops
My brother inlaw runs the same tops in his MK1 cortina. They seem to look ok but from playing with them i reakon they would be a mongrel to adjust up right as they can flop all over the show unlike a straight camber plate.

Re: Adjustable Strut tops
True, what do you mean by knock?
Is it just because they are solid mount with no bush? Or are they a bit sloppy or something?
I thought they might be difficult to adjust.

Re: Adjustable Strut tops
I don't know really, i think its where the strut insert is bolted to the centre bush in the cap/plate, they don't seem to be sloppy and in the limited time i've had to drive my 140j they are working fine.datsunboy wrote:True, what do you mean by knock?
