S14 SPL PRO rear toe rods

Do any dealers on here have the stealth black toe rods in stock? I ordered a set directly from SPL yesterday and they called me back and told me they were out of stock and wouldnt get any more for 3 weeks. I need some this week so I can drive my car to school and work

SPL has no have dealers, they sell directly

talk to Kauh from SPL, tell him the situation you can reach him via aim

buy them used.. if possible

run stock toe rods, until the new ones come?

edit: I actually have the stock toe rods, I'd be willing to sell for cheap if you need..

Well the problem I have is my car is too low to get enough adjustment out of the stock ecentric (sp?) bolt so maxxed out I still have toe out in the rear and my car wanders all over the place

JRas is there any other way to get ahold of Kauh and how do you think he can help me?

Why don't you just raise your car until you get the parts in 4 weeks...

It's not like you're competing in a modification race.

The post right above me is Kuah give him a call, chat with him on aim, or pm him here

raise your car, until you get the new toe rods...

I have cheap Powertrix arms, S14 ones
toe arms wouldn't work on my S13
the misalignment bushings/butterflies/ears (not sure what to call them)
are a different size between S13s and S14s
S14 ones are wider iirc

Hi Aaron!

For our toe rod set, we include the spacers for both S13 and S14. The S14 toe rods use wider misalignment spacers vs. S13. Normally most other brand toe rods would not be interchangeable between S13 and S14.

Wait and get what you really want.

I am in the same situation, ordered my black set back on Jan. 7th when I re-worked my suspension. Just been limping around and wearing my tires to death, dangerously, till they come in. *fingers-crossed for this week*

The black is HOTT.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

But it's not like you plan on entering your car in HIN and are having judges look under your car.

I think it's because of the subframe
the S14 one has a wider gap than the S13 one
where the toe rod bolts

porque S14 uprights?
is there a performance benefit
or you just happen to need the part and
had S14 ones on hand?
or are they maybe the same?
inquiring minds want to know...

i used to have a s15 subframe on a s13
had s14 arms and stuff
then i got a s14, so it all swapped over
then i got a s13 again so instead of changing stuff i just unbolted from subframe and moved it all over to the new s13
less money to be spent
and w/the zbrakes already all hooked up and such, one less thing to do
