if you've lowered your car it puts your suspension geometry back to stock.

zero sports makes a similar piece which sells for just under $300 USD in japan. I have yet to find anyone selling them in the USA though, even the new zero sports dealer (can't recall the name) which seems to have every other part they sell...

Yeah Zerosports makes an extended ball joint. The sixgun kit is a spacer kit for both the tierod and balljoints.

these are better than the zerosports one since it's not a extended ball joint. it's a piece that extends the ball joint itself. also it comes with a tie rod end extension that is supposed to eliminate bump steer

Yeah. Supposedly the toe/camber curves with just a zerosports balljoint is worse than stock. So if you have soft suspension that allows too much movement, you'd get tire wear and instability with just the zerosports balljoint . . . The toe/camber curves with the sixgun kit is much better; the only real gripe I have is that it increases the tie rod's leverage on the balljoint stud by raising it, therefore increasing stress. (Although highly debatable) But other then that the sixgun kit is the way to go.

Another free bump, but it's not being sold anymore from 91sleeper.. ;0
