So i purchased a set of Whiteline Roll Center Adjusters and got them installed over the weekend. Although i haven't driven really hard on them yet it seems that my front suspension moves "smoother" and feels softer actually than it did before. For those who have seen it my car pretty low at this point so i felt that these would be an improvement in daily driving as well as spirited/auto cross. Considering they are 175$ and a pretty easy install overall i would say they are definitely worth the money for anyone who is lowered. Just my 2 cents.

They should really help counter all that positive camber gain during cornering that lowered cars deal with. I just installed the kit along with my steering rack on my WRX while it was on the stands for the motor swap... though I need an alignment in a huge way and a broken-in/tuned motor before I can try it out.

Is this part SM legal?

I believe so. It's a moving part of the suspension which are unlimited in SM.

Funny, my kit is sitting on my desk right this moment as it arrived today. It'll get installed in a day or two with my coilovers (which theoretically will be here tomorrow) and of course reviews will be posted.

Should be, as it's part of suspension that moves with wheel movement.

Just a note on the install of these, i would suggest going to kragen and purchasing a "ball joint remover" If i did not have this i would not have been able to get out my stock lower ball joint. The steering arm one came out fine with a little persuasion from a hammer. But i pretty much had to wreck the lower ball joint with the remover and an extension to get it out. Just a suggestion.
