I've known Ken over at Enjuku for a few years, and I know from experience that he stands behind what he sells.
If you have an issue with the product he usually will do everything in his power to get you a new replacement part or resolve the issue by other means. With that being said, I have first hand experience with the ISIS coilovers and adjustable suspension arms (RUCA, Toe, and Tension rods) and all worked as they should and took a beating. Are they the nicest looking pieces? Not necessarily, do they use the highest quality rod ends? Nope. But are they a good bargain for the money, absolutely. We used the rod ends and coilovers for roughly 1 year on a friends race car which was driven competitively in the Street Wise drift series in NC/GA, at a number of competitions and demo's in FL, and also at a lot of practice events (Roughly 20-25 events total) and never broke an arm/rod end or had any issues. All those items are still on the car and in working order, but a new chassis is being built for the new season. And the car was beaten on pretty hard (wrecked twice, had many off course excursions, etc.) If your kind of budget minded and want something decent that you know will hold up I would get them. |

They all do it, it's because they replace the rubber bushings with plastic ones. |

Here is my take on it.
Ken is very passionate about his stuff, and I have seen where he talks about If you have any issues he will take care of it. Now that being said since rumor has it they do not use super high quality rod ends you will have to check them more often for wear. Companies like Battle Version, PBM, and SPL who use higher quality ends they will tend to last longer, but you will still need to keep up on checking them for wear. Chances are the welds even though they may not look super nice, they will hold up better than the stock Nissan arms. |

what what. 3ID. :P 603rd over here though as for the isis parts...I always trust Ken. Great guy, he's even been known to come on the forums and smash haters/back his products, Currently, my coupe runs the isis ruca/toe/tension rods and the mb se exhaust. The hatch has the isis fuel pump. Plan on nabbin' another isis exhaust for the hatch and the subframe collars soon as I sell the miata |

I have their straight pipe dual-tip exhaust for my S14. Zero complaints. It sounds great, and the ground clearance is actually much improved over my old Blitz system.

your doing it wrong with isis if thats the case..
however, i have the isis v2 short shifter and its been working perfectly fine. the bushing that came with the shifter didn't fit the transmission, bought a brand new and it fit perfectly fine. a little too 'stiff' to my liking but it works well and does not rattle. i will be switching back to stock shifter very soon though. good luck |

I LOVE my radiator. That's the only part I have experience with. Their customer service when it comes to backing up what they sell is second to none. Save where it's smart with Isis (radiators, tension rods, etc.) and pay where it's smart (coilovers, turbo).
Don't listen to the fanboys. Make your own informed choice about everything. For coilovers, it's hard to beat D2 for anything south of 1600 bucks. I LOVE D2s. Noone else does. So forget about everyone else, and just do you. |

i recently bought a shit ton of isis parts.. a full turbo kit, rocker arm stoppers, v2 short shifter, intake manifold. i was pretty happy about everything.. im still in the install part of my build. but the best advice i can give you is all their R&D goes into the product not really the bolts and etc. so use new bolts and studs if you need them. they sent the wrong intake twice, shipped me the correct one and i got to keep the other two.. cant beat that. you can check my build thread to get a look at most of the isis parts if your curious hard to say no to that

I'm running an ISIS Z32 MAFS, I admit it looks and feels cheaper than a OEM N62, doesn't have a N62 Orange Plate either, but it runs fine and no problems so far in terms of performance, so I could care less how it looks

I have the intake mani and oil pan and no complaints except u might need to tweak a few things to make them bolt up or fit right but it was all easy to fix and I deff would buy more parts from them
