What are good front lower tension rods for an S14? I seen tons out there with a price range of $45-180 and don't know which to get.

Or should I just buy some OEM pieces from Nissan?

Thanks.

I like TEIN tension rods, I've been using them for years. You can find used sets of TEIN's for like $80 here. SPL is very good and so is battle version and peak performance. I would never use the kazama ones because the bearings in their outer tie rod ends pissed me off severely!

Whoa, quick replies!

So are the aftermarket rods worth it over the stock rods?

definitely! you cant adjust caster with oem tension rods... which you will wanna adjust most likely later and can only do that with aftermarket ones

YES! They make a HUGE difference in how the front end of the car feels around corners.
