How does the torsion bar relate to engines? Sorry but the capslock has made me rather disoriented.

I think you're talking about the torsion control rod (TC rod). Don't know how much they cost off hand, but try Steve Richardson at Courtesy Nissan- great guy who's helped me plenty of times, or PDM racing may have some. You can also upgrade with parts from someone like SPL Parts.Make the friend help you repair.You will probably want an alignment after replacing.Next time post in the correct forum- this subject is not engine related- its suspension.

Some people call it a TC rod (PDM racing), so my previous info about where to find them is still good, I just had the wrong name. Refer to 3 posts up.
