as the title shows my outer tie rod ends are worn so im looking at replacements.

Oem nissan ones are expensive like $200 for the pair.

Did some searching and found that part number pte 926-14 is the aftermarket type which pedders have for $70 a pair and bursons have them in stock for $55 a pair,

before i buy them i rang a reputatble suspension joint who advised he didnt think they would be the right part and advised they have a more expensive item in stock.......

now the part number PTE 926-14 comes up on pedders online as for the r34 gtt , its also the same part number for r33 gtst howver r33 have three different options depending on there series...

Can Anybody clarify if the part will fit a r34 gtt???

i can confirm went ahead and bought these , i just installed these they are exact specs as oem and are only $27 each!.....

I just purchased a pair from TuneAgent for $130.00 for my GTT, I hope these fit!

Once installed, did you notice a considerable difference in the front steering and wobble felt through the steering wheel?

Just to add to this thread. (Hope you all find this useful)

Recently changed my outer tie rod ends on my R34 RWD.

You can use the Honda outer tie rod end part number "53540-SK3-E01". Exact same as PTE926-14.

Don't get ripped off by some sellers claiming that the outer tie rod ends for RWD R34 are exclusive.

The same outer tie rod end will also fit N15 pulsars and A32/33 Maxima (possibly other Nissan models too). It will also fit Rover and some Volvo models too.

Cost me $48.00AUD from eBay. (July 2014)

Thank you this thread was very useful.

I do have a few questions; are the tie rods the same for all four wheels?

And would tie rods from Nissan 300xz 91-95 fit the gtt?

Thread resurrect.

I just got some Transteering TE-926-14 (101mm, made in Taiwan) tie rod ends for my R34 GTT steering rack (front).

Looks like these come with grease nipples, whereas the OEM's are sealed I'm pretty sure.

What's the correct procedure to grease these and what grease should I use? 

Thanks guys.

Thread bump anyone know the r34 rear outer tie rod end part number or where to get em? Bursons only have fronts

You may find it easier just to eliminate Hicas completely: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/131671639600

Also to answer my own question from earlier, I ended up buying a grease gun off ebay and used some generic EPL2 grease on the front tie rod ends, seems fine.

Does that mean the hicas lock bar i have in the car is now redundant if i get your kit?

Yep my Hicas bushes were shagged and I still had Hicas, the eliminator kit gets rid of both in one hit.
Easy to install too, except removing the OEM steel sleeved bushing, which is always a pita.

hi guys I'm just wondering if anyone knows if the front tie rod ends for a r34 gtt are the same as the rear as I need rear rack and tie rod ends for the rear. If anyone can show me where to get them that would be very helpful. I also have a hicas lock bar which is confusing to know which rack ends to buy all I can see are rack ends for hicas 

The front and rear tie rod ends are not the same.

There are NO rear tie rod ends for non-HICAS cars.  There are no tie rods.  When the subframe is non-HICAS, the tie rods are replaced with "toe control arms" and the connection to the "steering arm" on the knuckle is not a taper ball joint.  It is a simple bush.  So it looks just like any other suspension arm.

So, if you have a lock bar, you still have tie rods.  If you need to replace the tie rod ends then you need to get HICAS (rear) tie rod ends, as there are no other types.

The smart thing to do is to buy a HICAS eliminator kit and freshen all that crap in the best way, selling the lock bar to some P-plater in the process.

    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
    • So, what else.... Power. I don't know what it is making because I haven't done a post tune dyno run yet; I will when I get a chance. It was 240rwkw dead stock. Conclusion from the day....it does not need a single kw more until I sort some other stuff. It comes on so hard that I could hear the twin N1 turbos on the R32 crying, and I just can't use what it has around a tight track with the current setup. Brakes. They are perfect. Hit them hard all day and they never felt like having an issue; you can see in the video we were making ground on much lighter cars on better tyres under brakes. They are standard (red sport) calipers, standard size discs in DBA5000 2 piece, Winmax pads and Motul RBF600 fluid, all from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney. Keeping in mind the car is more powerful than my R32 and weighs 1780, he clearly knows his shit. Suspension. This is one of the first areas I need to change. It has electronically controlled dampers from factory, but everything is just way too soft for track work even on the hardest setting (it is nice when hustling on country roads though). In particular it rolls into oversteer mid corner and pitches too much under hard braking so it becomes unstable eg in the turn 1 kink I need to brake early, turn through the kink then brake again so I don't pirouette like an AE86. I need to get some decent shocks with matched springs and sway bars ASAP, even if it is just a v1 setup until I work out a proper race/rally setup later. Tyres. I am running Yoko A052 in 235/45/18 all round, because that was what I could get in approximately the right height on wheels I had in the shed (Rays/Nismo 18x8 off the old Leaf actually!). As track tyres they are pretty poor; I note GTSBoy recently posted a porker comparo video including them where they were about the same as AD09.....that is nothing like a top line track tyre. I'll start getting that sorted but realistically I should get proper sized wheels first (likely 9.5 +38 front and 11 +55 at the rear, so a custom order, and I can't rotate them like the R32), then work out what the best tyre option is. BTW on that, Targa Tas had gone to road tyres instead of semi slicks now so that is a whole other world of choices to sort. Diff. This is the other thing that urgently needs to be addressed. It left massive 1s out of the fish hook all day, even when I was trying not too (you can also hear it reving on the video, and see the RPM rising too fast compared to speed in the data). It has an open diff that Infiniti optimistically called a B-LSD for "Brake Limited Slip Diff". It does good straight line standing start 11s but it is woeful on the track. Nismo seem to make a 2 way for it.
