i know whiteline sell the spherical rod end link but my main queries were (cheaper if i can use factory swaybar links & mounts)

1) where does this rod end link attach to in the rear end since there are no factory holes/mounting points (unless there is?)

&

2) am i able to use a standard rod end link from the same model that did come with a swaybar from factory? (ie: use a end from a R33 GTST in a R33 GTS)

im sure some NA person here would've done so.

i was shocked to find the car had no rear swaybar :)

Cheers in advance >_<

fitted it up today, cars handling has changed big time!!

cant believe nissan did not put one from factory. :)

haha yer true, where did you pick the tie rod ends up from?

Cheers James

like i said, all gtst had it and it was optional in the non turbos.

gonna get a whiteline one soon and install the front at the same time,

stock isnt cutting it for me anymore :)

Good idea, you won't regret it! :happy:

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
