Brand? There's a hundred different ripoffs found on Ebay, all of them a copy of someone else's copy. You're opening up a loaded gun by asking such a vague question.

Look no further.
Don't cheap out with suspension parts. Do it right the first time. It's not worth the risk.

I got the "ebay/Megan knock off" sway end links for my last car. Piece of shit. They stripped out on the first attempt to back the nuts off, and after I re-threaded them, they proceeded to rust so I had to break the nuts off to get them out of my car the second time. Yeah just go with SPL or ST. Really with sway end links, OEM are sufficient IMO, it's the bushings you need to upgrade not the links.
good luck.

I love how the term "Ebay" has turned into a brand name for cheap performance parts LOL. You'd be better off hotlinking an image of the specific parts you're looking at buying.
From what I've read, the biggest issue with the cheaper links are the inferior (industrial) heim joints and threaded portions, apparently they'll rust and then occasionally snap. More of an issue for those in wet & snow/salted areas but I'm sure people everywhere have experienced problems.
I have the "updated" CTune links on my car and whiteline swaybars. They are ok so far... If you're ballin I'd suggest you go with high quality stuff like SPL or BattleVersion for links.

godspeed sways should be alright
You should look at the Parts Shop Max arms they are good quality, and allot of guys I know run them and are VERY satisfied. Just follow the link in my signature.
ohhh you were asking about swaybar links, they don't make any yet.

Quality before Quantity
Buy Quality first or you will have Quantitys of broken knock offs.
Look around on this and other nissan/240 forums. The cheap shit breaks.

Agreed with everyone else.
Except my strut tower bars are cheap ebay knock offs :) But they are NOT taking much abuse. and they just stiffen the car a little.
I wouldn't put anything ebay UNDER the car though. Or on my engine for that matter. maybe a ebay muffler, if you were in need and broke.

a buddy of mine is using those motoria arms from ebay... their quality looks pretty good for the price i mean shit under $200 for ALL of the arms shipped! thats crazy... but i looked at them and the quality of the welds looked good, the chrome was fine, the heim joints look okay but i dont have a ton of experience with them so cant really tell "quality" from shitty, but they had grease fittings and were lined with a self lubrication strip... we bolted em up perfectly fine, the adjustments were just like my CPowertrix... I guess time will tell but as of now i'm impressed for the minimal ammount of money he spent.... just my 2c
anyone see the Godspeed package for both sway bars and all arms for 350-400 shipped? the arms look just like megans. is anyone running their arms?
just for reference not for sale

ebay.

go with quality arms.. you dont want whats holding your suspension together to break on the highway or on the track.
its not worth it and its only a hundred or two more than what you're paying for the ebay crap.
dont get it.
