the alloy bushes jammed in the rear cradle like this serve the same purpose as the Noltec sub frame bushes.

Yes the end result is the same and NVH is very much the same anyway.

staying on tie rod topic lol

im in 3 minds

JJR

Tein

Kazama

i wanna know which ones would last a while and be best to use.

looks like JJR arent too bad, but would they last ?

hhmmm

also they look pretty dodgy lol

rocket and VPW keep the full range of replacement rose joints, i have a set of JJR ones in cats car but with QA1 ends as the originals lasted about 2 event's before gettng sloppy. I ran ikeya formula rod ends on my 180 with no dramas for 3 years....

A mate in QLD recently snapped his stock tie rods and then after "upgrading" also snapped his JJR tie rod in his drift A31. Not the best quality by the looks of it, currently replacing them with tein tie rod kit that includes tie rods/tie rod ends and spacers for more lock. rrp $359 through www.isc-performance.com.

Any photos of the failures? I am amazed he snapped the std ones! Bend maybe, but snap? The material grade they use normally means they are very ductile....this is assuming he didnt right off the entire side of the car...in which case not the fault of the std ones :)

Ive got kts ends on ikeya rods at the moment

daily driving havent noticed any wearing yet but they havent been on long

might end up getting the ones dave has as I think they would probably pass regency down here

whats the point of you fitting them ?

you getting bump steer

or you just need new ends

if you want to do the rears do it properly and swap in a s13 non hicas rear craddle less hassle in the long run

its what Ive done

Edited by 1400r

I already have a diff in my rear with some bushes etc etc, so owes me too much money to swap to an S13 cradle. If anything i will go GTR that way i get all the alloy goodness, bigger shafts etc and then just get new shocks (again ;))

Yeh, i needed new ones so if im going ot be spending hundreds on Nissan OE, may as well spend a little less and get something that may end up better.

Im going to pull out my rears and make up some of my own :(

There is also these ones http://www.tuneagent.com.au/public/merchan...Item.aspx?id=22, they also fit the R34's.

Australian mob plus they come with a 1 year warranty. Look to be of pretty good quality, and for the price you cant go wrong.

Just orderd some myself, so gonna see how they go.

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
