Ive compared the Cusco and T3 side by side. And all in all its much of a muchness. The cuscos can hit on the upper hats in a coilover setup, a la this:

To overcome this Cusco made a "height adjustable" version of the camber tops which had a little spacer underneath so it didnt hit. However, that can easily be reproduced with a custom spacer like this:

Im thinking about getting more of those made up too btw.
The T3s dont have this problem, as they were explicitly designed for the height adjustable setup, like this:

But i would be worried about the upper hat rubbing on the base at higher neg camber values, as there doesnt seem to be much clearance there at all.
The T3 plates are made out of a thicker alloy as well which may be good for those planning to hammer it out along bumpy roads with heavy suspension... i have seen some Cusco plates bend or deform, but that was on a rally car.
Anyway im adding this to the suspension FAQ, so be nice.
