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.

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.

    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
