s13 tension rod upgrade?

im planning on upgrading my tension rods in the next month or so. just wondering what your thoughts were on some different brands and which ones have the best quality/price?. any rods i should look into/stay away from?

You could just buy new energy bushings for the ones you have. They are like 40 or 50 bucks and work well, the stock rods are not that strong though.

As far as aftermarket ones, battleversion, cusco, tein, JIC are all good and well proven.

I’ve heard some bad things about Peak Performance and Megans scare me cause they are so cheap. At the price some of them sell for, it’s not even possible to produce them with the good teflon sphericals on them.

Ebay ones id steer clear of too.

If I was you…battleversion all the way, fuckin beefy and available in NA easily.

I’m running Tein’s and no complaints, but i think tein/cusco/JIC are more money than battleversion.

Im very happy with my ARC Tension Rods…Avoid the cheap stuff, these things take a ton of abuse .

Really nice pieces

They are strong enough to crack LCA’s when used with the shitty ES TC bushings.

+1 for spl parts those guys are great to deal with.

i got a price for $240 for the battle version’s. seems like a fairly good price.
