ISIS Suspension Review

[gallo]

just an input i have various isis products on my car and by no means am i affiliated with isis or any company, just regular guy. anyway i have isis coils on my s14 and they ride super smooth and can get decently stiff as well, i say the coilover kit is for someone that daily drives their car more than drifts but expects their coils to work well on the track. i have had them for 4 months or so and no problems yet. as far as my isis engine parts they fit and work very well. so i would say isis is not ebay quality. once again just my .02. if anyone had any questions or wants pictures let me know. i just ordered my isis coils for my s13 and yamato arms for the same price as i would have paid for only coils of some other brand.

i bought the set earlier in the year. i had an issue with my traction rods. one of the mounting forks was not welded straight at all. talked to Ken and he sent me a new pair in a few days. besides that issue they are great arms for the price and i will always support enjuku because they will always help you when your not satisfied with your product.

heres what i was talking about with the fork.

As the worlds mfg and industrial economy changes the aftermarket will follow it. Business is business and in the end its all about survival. All we can do is support those which support us(the consumer). If competiting companies cannot find other means to drop cost to compete they fail and get replaced. The difference is enjuku and xs power are pretty good at replacing and warrantying products. Sure you pay a little more for a chinese product but with that you get customer service and a little more peace of mind. As other chinese mfg companies step into the game quality will be forced to improve as they will essentially be competing with each other instead of just labor rates vs Japan and here.

Isis arms are amazing. I used to break RUCA's allll the time. I havnt broken or stressed any of my ISIS arms, and my car has been super wrecked like 3 times with them on it.
Smashed it into the wall at Irwindale(front once and rear twice.)
Smashed the rear at our local Orlando track a bunch.
Then my buddy smashed it into the wall at like a 45* angle head on at like 50mph, jumped up the krail and smashed back down. Arms were still solid. The tension rod actually broke the tension rod bracket where it mounts in the front.





Id say Isis stuff is pretty legit.

[Future_gohan]

I run every arm on my car from isis, and I love them, none of them are froze, none make noise. I daily my car and have owned them for a year, the fronts have some mild rust on them but nothing crazy

[hellion240sx]

Wow, justy read through this whole thread and Ken is the man. Lol. So far based on thi thread these parts are legit. 1 in 1000 are pretty good odds. I think I will have to order a set (till I can afford Spl or Pbm). Looks like everyone who does have them abuse them and get their monies worth.

And they are self lubricating

[supramon808]

damn im sooo tempted to sell my yamato garage set to get a set of this...its been drift proven and customer service is really good...i might just do it lool

[trigjones]

Just ordered a set of rear suspension arms (RUCA, toe, and traction), already have Tein tension rods. Swapping out the tie rods up front for Tein, not sure what guy at Enjuku I talked to but major points to Ken for employing guys that really know their sh*t. And gave me an awesome deal on all the parts, will follow up with some comments after install.

Should have done this first off, now my tires are shot from running wide rims (17x10" RPF1's), stretched tires, and a 2" drop and neve got around to an alignment.

Doesn't sound like much of an upgrade.

With the money you're spending buying Isis and Megan coils, you probably could have bought a set of PBM/Fortune Auto/Stance coils.

So you properly preloaded them and corner balanced the chassis.

Or did you just do what ever noob does and slam it to the ground and preload the shit out of it to make it lower?

[redgreen240]

Just wanted to say Thanks again to Ken! Best Customer service I've seen in the car community yet!

Looks like the same arms as these to me:

ADJUST PILLOW TENSION ROD ARM 89-94 NISSAN S13 SILVIA | eBay


Except marked up in price.

are they backed by a company that will replace them for free due to manufacture defect?

No?

Well the ISIS ones are.

So what if they "look like" ISIS arms there's only one way to design the tension arms....

I must still be drunk, i dont get it are you talking to me?

[roel03]

They even come with the same bags. Just saying, your paying for a company to throw a name out there. They don't only look like them, they are them.

There is not only one way to design a tension rod. Look at SPL or the other arms. Just because it bolts on, doesn't mean it's quality.

LOL. no was talking to roel03

[stricnynel0s]

just a side note, i run the ISIS arms on my s14 kouki, i did tail of dragon on them, with proper alignment, and so far they have been good, the heim joints have started to rust since i live in NJ we have lot of differant weather patterns and that could on contributed to the issue. But for the 350 i think i paid for them i have 0 complaints, i am looking into higher qual arms, and the price is almost 900 for them so i might stick with there for another season

[tqstarburst]

I've got the isis dual elec fans for over a year now.. Work just like when i bought them.

We have sold almost 1000 ISIS Suspension arms. ZERO Failures. These are also on a Professional Formula Drift Car, numerous weekend drifters, plenty of street cars and doing great!!

By all means if someone wants Nasa quality welding I am sure we can find you a product to fit your needs. We sell everything from the highest end products down to some that are much lower than ISIS.

When ISIS came out we wanted to help them provide a quality product that withstands normal daily abuse and still be able to provide it at a GREAT PRICE.

I think ISIS does this hands down. I have been selling parts for over 10 years and ISIS is by far the best for the money in my personal oppinion.


If anyone has any more questions or comments please feel free to email me directly - [email protected]

Sincerely

Ken Harrison

Thumbs up to an owner of a company who takes the time to research feedback even on forums!!! I have put a lot of thought into your "cost/benefit analysis" that you speak of, and have ordered the ISIS suspension rod package.

Everyone would go buy the most expensive/best quality suspension parts if we could afford them. I personally am just looking for a reliable suspension setup for extremely minimal track and 95+% DD quality. I have not heard of any ISIS breakdowns either.

If they survived the dragon, they are god lol. The dragon is no joke! yeah the salt in the winters are def a reson for rusting. Along with every car out there :/

[K_V3T]

It'd be cool to see if some of the people that bought these arms back in 2009 to chime back in and see if they lasted. They're metal arms I mean they're going to be great at first but I just want to know how they've made out to 2012.
