I highly doubt the sedan and coupe have different ball joints.
Yeah i'm curious too...
On a related subject, do you guys know if a new ball joint "seat" needs to be pressed onto a new balljoint? I replaced my right side steering knuckle last year due to a wreck, and it came with the balljoint, but the little seat piece didn't come with the new knuckle, I had to remove the old one from my broken knuckle using considerable force (a vice). I now have a nice knocking sound when going over bumps on the front right side of my car, which sounds like a damaged balljoint. Maybe the little seat just needs to be pressed onto the balljoint.
Thoughts?
BTW the seat i'm referring to is the little black cone that sits between the balljoint and lower control arm, you can see them in this aftermarket balljoint kit kit Z1auto.com sells.

Just because it's from China doesn't mean its crap. Granted, a majority of stuff coming from there has turned out to be crap... but give it a chance. Who knows, might get lucky!
