bro,

between option (2) maintenance free type and option (3) billet steel + spherical bearing

...... which is will last longer and more suit our purposes?

 

[hahf]

count me in.
option 3 i think is like the R3 Bump Steer Kit photo attached.
it is exposed to dust/sand and can last about 12 months before need to change the bearing after it worn out.

should go for this inverted set-up,im done the same on my car last time.steering response behaved differently too.

so this will eliminate the issue of super positive toe whenever we wanna adjust the front camber setting lower than the OEM spec, am i right? i have this problem of my toe in going +3 deg whenever i tweak the camber beyond -1.5 deg. in that case i would go for the proposed cheaper solution by Ali bulala than buying this from the states..

UPDATE!!!!

Good News GUYS... the picture that i post are a maintenance type of tie rod and too short. the pillow ball need to be regrease and worn out easily. if the pillow ball kong need to buy a whole tie rod end. so, the mechanic said that he going to custom from billet steel and use high quality spherical bearing for our car. It gonna be better quality. so option 3 la.. the price should be cheaper than the price of the tie rod end which lightningfield postType One Racing :: Suspension & Brakes :: Integra & RSX (DC5) :: T1R Pillowball Steering rod end for RSX DC5 02-06. so. the price should be cheaper than Rm700 and the quality are much better than the T1R inverted tie rod end. We should get the final price maybe by this friday. Thanks and be patient....

 

[boulala]

UPDATE!!!!

The price for the inverted tie rod end will be RM600. The mechanic will try to finished the first eight by CNY. The inverted will be made from billet steel and using better bearing. Hope u guys can wait. Thanks. hehe...

 

[WAFS]

[lightningfield]
