J's Racing Roll Centre Adjuster FCJ-03

[evolution]

Recently installed the J's Racing Roll Centre Adjuster (RCJ) on my RB1. From what I read (taken from the nungen website), lowering vehicles alters the suspension geometry angles which in some cases can actually increase body roll and reduce cornering performance. The roll center adjustment kit enables the vehicle to be lowered without detriment to the suspension system. It
1) Decreases body roll
2) Improves tire contact patch with the road
3) Increases steering wheel responsiveness
4) Enables increased cornering force.

Graphic explaination from the J's Racing site which I don't understand, but the pictures looks nice

Personally, my car had abit of bump steer and on uneven roads the steering wheel would sometimes track to one side. After installing the RCJ, the side tracking on uneven roads is gone, bump steer is gone and it seems to handle corners better especially if the corner is over an uneven surface.

So now to some pictures

The box that it came in

The people at pedders had to remove the brake rotor dust covers as it was in the way

[evolution]

Bro, my wallet is also very empty at the moment. So I post here hoping people will see my for sale thread, click on the link and buy something so that my wallet is no longer empty. ;)

[AusAccord]

haha, good try man!! may be i should sell some of my stuff as well.....

[evolution]

Not a good idea... That would create competition in the market place... And that would cause massive undercutting. To that end both our wallets will still be empty in the end.. Heheheh

[AusAccord]

tks for the economic lecture... will hold my stuffs then

[evolution]

Hahahah you know I'm only joking :p

[AusAccord]

you know i know you are only joking man!! forgot to ask, how long does it take for installing?

[evolution]

I think the guy told me an hour each side an then another hour to do the alignment and camber adjustment.
