that sucks! Cut up some sausage franks and throw that in; it'd be better than nothing!

Anyway I think you mentioned the mystery drift toe specs to me yesterday, and it's something i was actually going to bring up but forgot to... we'll talk about it later.

Halz, yes, it is true that excessive toe in/out would cause more strain on the tie rod, however when turning the car normally, the strain would exceed that of a strait-traveling misaligned car. as for the wheel dragging forces created by caster, they are also considered insignificant when compared to just harsh driving and "smacking" of the steering components. same thing goes for the larger scrub radius created by low offset wheels. in summary, suspension geometry itself could only cause so much strain, and the forces created by the above components are nothing compared to a hard full counter smack. hope that helps!

yeah JIC Japan is much cheaper then USA

check out the group buy section here on zilvia..some JIC might work if there are 10+ buyers

i geot URAS from zilvia member ruf (reflex racing). actually i buy all my stuff from him or jspec. that's all i need (aftermarket wise). their prices are the best and they can get anything i need.
