R31 To S13 Tie Rod Adaptors

[910trx]

Lil help guys

i'm in the skyline section, and with owning a stagea its the first time i have stepped foot in this part of the forum - so go easy please.

i'm fitting s13 coilovers to my bluebird but came unstuck as the tie rods on the 910 are different to the s13 hubs (they are tapered not straight)

easiest fix is fit s13 tie rods but they are too short and a theread is different - apparently the same as the r31.

i have noticed that a lot of r31 guys have used these in the past to fit bump steer adjustable s13 ends on lowered cars but i am looking for locally made parts in adelaide which are to engineer specs, i can lathe some up but i doubt they will be strong enough and rather not risk it.

the other options are to taper drill the s13 items to suit the 910 ends but this means i will never be able to get bump steer adjustment and be stuck with the phasing out of the 910 items forever (try finding a 910 trx oil guage sender - IMPOSSIBLE) and i cant find the right spec drill bit for under $150.

also i will be restricted with fitting a ca18 crossmenber and powersteering if/when i ditch the z18et project for a ca18 (coz its better with power steering)

so r31 boys where do you go for adaptors?

Thanks
