The difference between cheap generic, and the more expensive ones, i am told, is the quality of the rose joint. I was told that if my car ever saw the track it would wear through the cheaper ones very quickly. I took my chances because the "good" ones were around $400, compared to $140 for the cheapies.
One year on and i dont hear any knocking from the back (touch wood)

there are cheap ones (ebay, powertrix), intermediate (battle version), and top of the line (cusco, JIC). Like anything else, you get what you pay for. I'd never buy another set of ebay ones, finish sucks, welds suck and the rod ends wore out in less than a year. Good replacement rod ends cost more than the ebay arms themselves.
The JICs have quality rod ends, solid construction, and a durable zinc plating. Asking $300 shipped OBO for my JICs. They are Dark Anghel's old arms, hardly used. Only reason I'm not using them is that I ended up not needing any camber adjustment

I wouldnt run those megans on a nice car like yours. Some of the cheaper multilink manufacturers ive seen have had instances where the hardware rusts and breaks or the joints fail. Ive also seen the metal split on an s chassis ruca. I run Cusco vacanza Ruca's on my s14 and they have a lot more adjustment then a lot of other pieces ive seen, the rubber boots keep dirt out too so the bearings dont fail or get noisy. Theres also a new company out, partshopmax, theyre local to me and good people. Their setup is the beefiest ive seen and a lot cheaper then my cuscos.
