so i was doing some illegal street drifting and in return i ate a curb. my question is, are there performance parts for the following?:RR lower control arm, knuckle and bearing (?knuckle and bearing?)

Right front bent strut. (i plan on getting coil-overs)--- a bent inner tie rod needs rack and pinion

left front strut rod mounting bracket---- 2 front strut rod bushings

ok, thats what needs to be fixed as of now. but i also want to kno about everything else. what do i need for maximum capability? Ive never even heard of most of these parts i mentioned. i was thinking about just upgrading to tein inner and outer tie rods but i heard somewhere if i get the Rack and Pinion it'll already come with rods on that?? and if anyone has any pics of what some of these parts look like that would be very helpful too. thanks

Don't even know where to begin..

Take your credit card info and buy the parts from Phase2.

Racks come with inner tie rods.

Stop trying to do this kind of **** with your car.

You basically broke an unmodified car that has not been maintained, so nice job all the way around. Stop it.

If you damaged the rear knuckle/spindle/upright then you really f'd up. Those things are one of the heaviest dutiest parts on the car lol. IMO anyway, from swapping them to z32 uprights.

i bent my rear spindle before. i didn't expect that thing to get messed up haha. but i got another from a junkyard for about $50

but if you bent your spindle then you more than likely bent your sub-frame as well, so you may want to check that. the best of luck to you!
