I think you should develop some Front and Rear lower control arms for the S-chassis.

Finally we could have some arms that correct the roll center enough for our super-low cars.

Maybe you could even make a S13 RLCA that changes the angle of the arm, giving an S13 more traction without modding the subframe or swapping to an S15/S14 subframe.

might be too expensive. people already make roll center adjusters.

But they usually only correct roll center by 10-20mm. How far have you lowered your car?

I know it would be expensive, it would also be awesome. Definitely for people who want to look good and perform the absolute best. I really think it's something that should be considered.

yea thats true. my car is 5.5 inches lower iirc than stock.
i measured from the ground to the fender arch. and yea that 10-20mm of adjustment may not be sufficient.

well, 25mm with the subframe risers and another 10-20 with roll center adjusters, it adds up. Moonface makes roll center adjusters and i think speed alliance was gunna start selling them but i dunno.

Yeah, they're $600 a pair.
Megan Racing makes them too, but they are just extended ball joints. Again, they're only about 15mm taller.
And the subframe risers only work on the rear obviously.

I plan on buying Ikeya Formula lower arms, because I think that's the best solution out. But I think there should be something that corrects it more, the Ikeya arms are good for a D1-spec height, and we all know we want to be lower than that.

For some wired reason, a lot of japanese gangster low drifters(like haraguchi and Nakamura) says that the front arms being bowed up actually helps low drift cars. (talks about it in several drift heaven magazine issues.) They are not sure why either but they said that they go by their feelings and they like it with out the low center adjuster. I think this is something to think about too...
