I saw the post in the archives but they only talked about the manifolds and exhaust parts.. I have a 91 240 fastback and looking at getting the suspension kit for the tension rods and tie rods. http://www.ssautochrome.com/level.itml/icOid/1653 I know the saying you get what you pay for, my question is does anyone have this set on their car and does it fit right? I'm about to order it but wanted some peoples opinions first.

Do you have a link to the post you were reading?

Tie rods? Do you mean traction rods?

Anyway those tension rods look.. weird somehow. They might be made of cheaper, low quality metals that could stretch or just snap without warning. but.. it says they are steel, which is good. too bad they didn't mention what GRADE of steel..

Depends. Motoria is a factory that builds quite a few things for other companies like Uras and so on. Those links don't look too bad from afar, but would I be willing to risk it when there are other parts like SPL and Cusco and Kazama's out there? Eh...probably not. At the end of the day, the last thing I want to second guess are major components of my suspension that could lead me into someone else's car or into a guard rail or off a cliff or something. It's ok to penny pinch, but sometimes it's worth the extra little bit for that extra little bit of confidence.
