You need them why? The stock parts, or stock replacements are fine.

You've been bending them on the FC or the S13 / S14?

The 280zx would have been the old car that he was referring to having problems with.

no no no

he is saying based on his experience with his old 280zx, he would like to upgrade his FC tie rods.

but after hearing responses, he thinks shoddy tie rods "are a nissan thing" and he would thus not need to upgrade his FC.
