setup Q?

[jayka]

jus wondering what you guys think.
as a beginner are tie rods necessary yet, im not doing any drifting events but i like to play with the car at night a 1 or twice a week.
thinking of doing some track events in a year or so but for now jus a daily driver.
I was also wondering if i should jus go with a lowering spring for now or wait and get full coilover.

i mean i am a newbie so i know i wont be doin nothing crazy but what way should i start going with this.

You don't need tie rods.
What are the end goals for your car? Plan accordingly. Don't waste money on springs if what you really want are coilovers. Don't get a VLSD if what you really want is a locking type diff. You get the idea.
"Doing track events in a year or so but really its a daily driver" does not sound like you want anything more than springs/shocks and a VLSD.
So have fun and be safe!

no, you don't NEEED beefier tie rods. But, the ones on the 240 are as thick as your pinky finger. I bent one. Dealership + Generic Shop = about $170 to replace the one.

TIEN Tie Rods + My Favorite Hot Rod Shop = about $175 to replace both with rods as thick as your thumb down the whole length.

Was it worth it? For me, yes. But, just to do it? Naw.
