imo the cusco look to be better because they are more solid. but that will also require you to remove the suspension.

mine look like the battle version ones and they work just fine.

I think the BV would be easier to install...but the cusco one looks pretty hardcore.

you guys are comparing S13 RUCAS to S14 RUCAS.

S13 are complete circle

S14 is half moon

cusco and kazama are the best arms out there, period. tanabe is up there as well, but they don't sell their drift parts anymore.

i personally use cusco ruca on my s13.
