I saw these at Autobacs:

I found them at Project Nissan also: http://www.projectnissan.com/shopping/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcategory=0&idproduct=3962

What do they do other than have the stiffer Nismo Bushings? Their name would leave me to believe they change the rear camber or the ball joint location for that matter. Anyone have any experience with these?

do you think those are those aluminum or polished steel? If they did adjust hte camber id total get them but i dont know how reliable it is to have lower ball joing move in and out to adjust camber IF that is how its done on those

angle on the ball joint is different for lowered cars im told
stiffer bushings too.

mm is worth the money i think. espeically for LCAs are expensive. and RlCAS are most expensive aftermarket (adjustable type)

i think its worth

They are painted steel with the standard Nismo blueish silver paint.

those are just rear lower control arms, they shouldnt have anything to do with camber, the ball joint is attaches to the hub to compensate for movement while driving and for camber adjustments but the RUCAS are the only things controlling actual amount of camber.

Translated roughly from the Nismo japan catalog:

Stiffer bushings for reduced suspension movement, increased angle of balljoint for lowered vehicles. Stamped and reinforced box sections.

Basically an OE arm with additional welds along the bottom and sides, Nismo bushings, and an angled ball joint for excessively lowered cars running increased camber, therefore keeping the joint from being pulled too tight. For the price, not really worth it since you can press ES bushings in for cheap and weld all you want on an existing OE arm. The balljoint angle really doesn't seem an issue unless you planned to run -10 degrees rear camber.
