Steve.b Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Hey guys just curious if anyone know where I can get aftermarket tie rod ends for a c34 s2 mine are shagged. Thanks Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoomzoom Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Ebay or supercheap auto. Outer tie rods are easy to find, inner rack ties need to be inspected for the correct length. I cut some GTR ones to fit. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/#findComment-6919606 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedhead70 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I got genuine Nissan ones from justjap in the last 12 months for the front of my 2000 C34 S2 RS4, I tried after market ones that a few members have recommended only to find out that the taper is incorrect. The genuine ones only cost about $100.00 each, I can't put my finger on the part number at the moment but justjap will sort it out for you. Mine were flogged out too.

4bidn1 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I use genuine ones aswell and i can confirm that the tie rod ends listed at auto stores are the wrong taper 34 Gtr ones are the correct taper but are to short. So genuine it is , use search function the part number is on hear somewhere Cheers J Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/#findComment-6920119 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipster11 Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Another +1 for listed aftermarket ends being wrong Try kudosmotorsports, they can be cheap for genuine parts They should last another 15 years tho, so its probably worth paying the extra Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/#findComment-6921330 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiRS4T Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Should be one of these (haven't had to buy one myself yet): 3 different tie rods outers for Stageas, depending on model, year, 4wd/2wd, MT/AT etc 48520-0cu25(2wd) 48520-15u25(4wd) 48520-23u25(4wd) 2 different for R33, both are same part # as 2 of the 3 Stagea tie rods. 48520-15u25(2wd) 48520-23u25(4wd) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/#findComment-6921869 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedhead70 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 (edited) I found my invoice from JustJap. The correct part number is 48520-23U26 this is the genuine part number I got from Nissan which supersedes previous part numbers. I have had them on my 2000 C34 S2 RS Four Auto since November 2012 last year with no problems, as I stated before the aftermarket ones do not fit, they are dangerous as they feel like they pull up into the taper but there is insufficient clearance underneath leaving very little angle to pivot correctly and they flog out very quickly, I had them on the car for only a week waiting for the genuine ones to arrive and when I fitted the genuine ones, the aftermarket ones were worse than the ones I was replacing in the first place, the only good thing was they practically fell out of the taper when I undid the top nut! I hope this makes it clear re the correct part number, for info, they cost me $190.00 for the pair in November 2012 when I picked them up and Dan from Just Jap was extremely helpful.

4bidn1 Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Ha ha was just looking through my receipts and zedhead hit the nail on the head that's the correct 1 and only part number for s1and s2 rs4 , a lot of the other aftermarket part company's will tell you other ones will fit but they won't they have the same size taper as a 34gtr i think 14mm but are a lot shorter in the shank .where as the ones listed at part dealers have a 12mm (too small) taper like 33/34 gtt but are correct shaft length , Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/#findComment-6922575 Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS4StagMan Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I got these a while ago for my Series 2, 4WD. The suspension place said they were Identical to the originals and only $60 a pair. Quality seems to be good too. You can email the seller to confirm fitment. From memory the packaging said made in Taiwan. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/2-OUTER-TIE-ROD-END-Set-NISSAN-STAGEA-4WD-96-01-/190638900925 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/#findComment-6922651 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagea_Neo Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I guys just to clarify, does 48520-23U26 suit both the passenger and drivers side? The guy at Nissan Spares today wasn't sure and said he cant get them. He also said 48520-23U25 supersedes the above part, can get them, presently $150.79 landed in Aus. (i think he got his superseding back the front :). I was planning to get 48520-23U26, in reference to advice above and also i found these at Kudos. http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/outer-front-nissan-skyline-stagea-wgnc34-260rs-25tx-four-four-four-p-1090.html Cheers, Pete Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/428270-tie-rod-ends/#findComment-7833100 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagea_Neo Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 (edited) Thanks Tom, Is yours series 1 or series 2? Using my vin to search on my S2 RS4V AWD (11/98) they came back as 48520-23U25, so in turn I have ordered 48520-23U26 which is the newer part. Now crossing fingers I have the correct part :). Ditto on genuine.
