stockers might bend under hard driving.

...wait, what do you mean by "two outer"? Do you mean tension rods?

nah, well you have the inner tie rods and the other tie rods from your rack and pinion shaft,
but are they really worth the price those tein rods
thanks

tein are only compatible with the tein tie rod ends, they I REPEAT NOT compatible if you mix match them with stock pieces.

SLP parts are better

Tien uses S14 threads on their tie rods so yes it is possible to use stock ends with them. Just make sure they're for an S14 (even if you have an S13). Anyway about the tie rods I got them on my car and I believe they are worth the money over stock. The stiffer bushings and spacers WILL make a noticable difference in steering feel.

well i have an s14 and although i didn't ry the instuctions and all the research i did said that tein's were not compatible with stock ends

PissonH 07-09-2004 08:49 PM

that i know, my question is are they worth it over stock ones for the price you pay for them

Catharsis 07-09-2004 08:54 PM

yes but spend the money for the SLP parts for now there will be better products coming out soon for less money

its the brand

smokie700 07-11-2004 01:51 AM

not sure about SPL heard good things about them but tein is a proven brand. I feel any aftermarket part that is good quality will be better than stock.

I heard that SPL tension rods can hang with Tein in terms of strength, but I haven't heard anything about the tie rods

Teins are great. And, btw, when you get the Tein tie rods, you get both sides, complete. You get the two tie rods AND both outer tie rod ends...
