    i dont know that adding spacers to your tie rods would help you with bump steer.

    yes you can use mx83 inners with s15 outers, ive seen it myself on sprinter saurus' car but if you dont wanna go that way there are other options as mentioned about 13 pages ago.

    can you use ae86 strut tops with s13 coilovers, for the poor people that cannot afford camber tops yet?

    you can, but its best you dont run a high spring rate, as this may punch through the rubber of your factory strut top.

    i am running that risk at the moment with ae86 struts. is that what you mean?
    so they still fit with the s13 shocks?

    I is been running my factory slut tops for about 3 years now with tokiko HTS and 8KG spring rate and have shown the car no mercy whatsoever every time i drive it everyday.

    Loves it, the rubbers show no sign of damage.

    top stuff. getting my car ready to engineer. need the brake upgrade, and want more steering lock. but dont have much coin at the moment. thanks
    might just run s13 coilovers and just leave the stock strut tops for a while

    glad to here you guys arent having troubles. thats why i made sure i said 'may' go through the rubber as i have never personally seen this, only heard rumours.

    question for those who have used bluebird tie rods: i ordered some tie rods today from my parts supplier, just asked for 83 TRX tie rods. got them, they fit the rack ends fine but they arent a good fit for the s13 stub axle. which model bluebird tie rods are people using? maybe the later FWD ones? if its any help, the ones i have are marked left and right, they have a kink on both sides.
