I just had a look and now I'm confussed lol. Your best bet would be calling them when you get the chance. If they give you the wrong information then you have atleast some comeback.

Yeah I was assuming it's the KLC30's but just wanted to be sure as I can't look at the car to check but from the advert description it doesn't seem like they'd know themselves.

I believe that if you have the alloy arms you need KLC32.

Though I may be wrong.

I would have thought that size as well because yours is a 2 door. But it being a JDM it might be different.

I would recommend going KLC139, and NOT KLC30 or 32.

I went KLC30 and have experienced fit problems. The Link does not align correctly (see pic below) and causes premature wear leading to failure.

If you really want to upgrade then the 139 is better, but really, save your money and leave the standard ones on - they work just fine, even with a stronger arb

If you end up getting the KLC139, I would suggest disassembling the threaded assemblies and using anti-sieze grease on the threaded portion. Just preventative measure for long term adjustability. I do like these links as they don't make the noises of the full spherical motorsport versions but still react faster than the poly version in addition to being able to dial out the preload on the ARB.

Mmm I've got a set of front and rear solid whiteline alloy heavy duty droplinks for sale...

Mint condition, will do both sets for 105quid delivered... :-D

It depends on wether you have alloy droplinks or not which front links you go for..

Cheers
