i was told that Z32 inner tie rods would work with our 240s. I was wondering if anyone had this setup? I did soem searching and couldnt' find anything info on ppl running Z32 tie rods. I know the outter tie rods are different on the Z so would i just run the S13 outter with the Z32 inner?

so inner and outter tierods work? if thats the case just how much better than stock are they. Also will they work on a s14?

you have to run z32 inner and outers together

splparts.com has been selling that stuff (with aftermarket ends and spacesr and shit) for sometime

doriftoslut has z32s on his car. for a year +

they are thicker then stock

if it fits s13, it fits s14
tie rods are nearly same, just gotta run s13 inner/outer together, s14 inner outer together or z32inner outer together

JIC no, SPL yes.

BTW< SPL makes S14 ends to use with S14 (or Tein... same as S14) inners. They also make Z32 versions, where the bumpsteer adjustment and balljoint is identically the same, but the outer threaded rod is longer to be used with the shorter Z32 inners.

I have that.

i ordered z32 inners and spl outters but they are back ordered, well the outters are, ps. dont buy z32 inners from autozone, the duralast inners for asome reason are coarse thread and in no way would fit a z32. my autozone ahs some so i thought i d check them out, nope a duralast manufactureing mess up cause both inners they had were the same.

Moog makes some. I got mine from SPL back in the day when Kuah wanted me to test for him and see if it would work. But Moog can be had at Napa iirc. So try that out.

hrmm i was planning to buy Z32 OEM replacements from Advanced Auto Parts. AAP tends to carry more than one brand though, i'll still check it out.


oh and where can i buy the SPL ones? the SPL site dosn't say a whole lot.

Look at my post above yours. Moog OEM Z32 replacements. Napa. Or form a website if one exists. Or email Kuah, tell him you want the "Z32 tie rod setup like Lindsay from Pink GodziRa" and he'll know what you mean and get the stuff for you.
