I took my s14 to get it aligned yesterday and the guys at the shop wouldnt even touch it because of the aggressive angle that my inner tie rod was at. The damn thing looked like it was doing a "V" from my steering rack. I was wondering what is the best tierod end that comes with spacers to fix bump steer . I was looking at circuit sports since I have all there suspension components already, but I wasnt sure if they came with spacers. Ohh yeah for you who dont know why its doing a "V", its because when you lower your car on any car it will change the angle of the inner tierod and create bump steer.

 

I have tein. The only thing I didnt like is that they dont have Zirc fittings on them so I ended up drilling them out and putting some in.

Tein comes with a spacer and they are pretty good stuff.

 

i use Uras.. very strong rod no issues.

 

Anybody used moog inner or outer tie rods or heard anything about them? I am thinking of getting a pair of those...

 

uras looks tight but I wanted spacers on the ends to even out the angle. I think imma get Circuit Sports, I was looking closely and they do got the spacers.

 

I've heard only good things about tein, thats what i'll be going with.

 

SPL's

 

yea the Uras line has many low level angle mods.. the rod comes with a notch for a slight degree of angle. you can couple them with Uras ends

 

look into getting the spls... the tein or tein/stock/moog style wont help you.


you need the bump steer adjutability




teins come with spacers for greater steering angle not adjustable bump steer

 

spl's are hella expensive! But that is what I am looking for. Thanks

 

I use Moog, but mainly an OEM replacement. You'll need a greese gun to pack the ball joint (Outer Tie Rod end comes with zirc fitting). If you got an agressively lowered car, go with SPL + I haven't seen a SPL heim joint pop out.

Peep Zilvia, got a few forum members on there who've had Circuit Sports and Wicked tuning Tie Rod ends pop out on them while driving... O Crap Mode.

Might wanna check out this forum in NorCal - mestiso.net or something like that. One of the members did a DIY of SPL install and you can see how well it corrects the tie rod angle.

 

i am not too low, so i bought the tein's & am very pleased with them. however my friend's s13 is basically on the ground & he had to get the spl's for the bumpsteer adjustability. he did say that the feedback on the steering wheel is much better on the track & on smooth roads. however on ****ty roads he complains about feeling every bump & crack in the road transmit to the steering wheel.

 

sorry to bring up an old tread but can I use the spl's with the oem inners? I read that it is designed for the 300z's inners.

 

iirc z32 inners bolt up to our racks.

 

what the heck is iirc? that still doesn't answer my question.
