Well I'm gonna go pick up my set up Battle adjustible tension rods from sam tomorow and a new driverside tie rod from Superior nissan (32 bucks from nissan). And also of course get an alignment. Hopefully this shall solve my steering wheel shimmy problem.
Also with the Tension rods what exactly should I expect from it? more responsive/touchy stearing wheel, more road vibration and road imperections are more prone to give me bumper steer?

oh c'mon now, are you going for a trolling record?
You know full well there have been a billion posts about what pillowball TC rods do and what differences there are in installing them.
Seriously. I don't know what you're deal is; obviously you find some great need to call attention to youself, were you not held enough as a child or something? With this behavior it's no wonder you were ostracized from FA, i mean jesus man, get a grip on reality. Nobody finds your posts worthy of the space they take up, you're basically just wasting West's server space and adding more clutter for those using the SEARCH. There are thousands of posts to filter through when looking for something specific, don't make it harder for people who are honestly trying to do their best to help themselves... you're effectively encouraging newbies to get themselves flamed by not searching when you think about it.
But you DON'T think about things like that do you?
You waste west's space, everyone's time, and as it should be obvious by now EVERYONE'S PATIENCE.
So yeah, I'll be the a$$hole who actually says aloud what everyone else is holding back, because I'm sick of seeing legitimate posts of people asking for help or advice, get shoved aside when you feel no one's paid attention to you in a while.
Zilvia is here for enthusiasts to ask questions, share information, and help themselves to the archive of past threads with the SEARCH. You yourself have told newbs on many occasions to use the SEARCH yet you won't do it yourself becuase asking something you KNOW has been talked about plenty of times over gives you one more thread to start.
Just so you dont find my post totally worthless (if you've even read this far) You can expect your steering to be tighter and more responsive, a much rougher ride, and wheeljerk when you hit potholes. Any bends in your frame or suspension will be magnified, so if your wheel shimmy is from something not up to spec in your suspension geometry, expect it to get worse, not better, and yes, you'll get more bump steer.
Reap what you sow man. I'm done ranting.
I'm sure I've ****ed you off, and maybe some mods too, but hey, I'm not saying anything that plenty of others aren't thinking; but regardless, the point stands that your posts 90% achieve nothing but making it harder for others who would use this forum for practical purposes that contribute to the greater good of the knowledge base this site holds.
All i'm saying is try to be part of that.

Thanks for the info. I learned a bit more from what I already sorta kinda knew.
Mad? Never! I don't ever take anyone or anything or anyone on the boards too seriousisly. I mean to get mad because of a message board? heh I mean I have more things to worry about then that.

wow, thats a really great attitude. Seriously, some people seem to just have it out for you, and for you to not go down to the level of others is just very commendable. Much respect!
PS: There was nothing wrong with his post in my opinion, it was an honest question, why do you guys have to assume that he is trying to show off?

he put it on because it was dirt cheap and drivng around w/ no bumper/bumper falling off isnt cool (cops notice that).
i think he's waiting for his new bumper to pickup/coming/whatever to replace it.
apparently his current bumper is 'temporary'

As soon as i fix this problem and then maybe some new rear shocks I think my car should be ready for an event. Oh yeah and of course some a spare set of rims and tires to toast for the rear. LSD would be nice but isn't nesesary.
Now only if the driver was up to par....:o
