IIRC he has a restricted license and this is strictly a track car.

correct, he doesnt actually drive the cars to events, he gets a friend to drive, and then he drifts it, or he trailers it

fuck the police

i have s13 knuckles and tie rods.. its pretty simple for me

there ya go, my car has never been trailerd before though, just when it was a rolling shell when i bought it, and when i moved and i was 1/2 way through the swap twice



i might just go with it like that, i am lazy, an i never wanted any headlights in the first place. it will work till i get silvia bricks

Ok, so you could get some Tein tie rods for more angle made for a S13 and it would do the same for you?

heres my issue,


can someone explain the whole tie rod thing?



i used s13 tie rods... they were SO long, to the point, i had ridiculous toe in... couldnt afjust it not enough thread



so, i tapped the thread, all the way down the whole tie rod, and cut 1/4 of it off,


i still dont understand how long ass tie rods give you made angle without forcing the wheels to eventually toe in, i beleive id need cut knuckles for that

the cleaner part is the new threads i made



then i cut them



i have a bunch of spare rods though.. but thats the only thing that seemed to work
