What's the deal with the type-s tie rods ends then? Surely the rack isn't longer, so if the pivot point on the lca is further inboard won't that put more stress on all the components, but mean you don't have to turn the steering wheel so far?
the LCA's are actually longer on the type s hence needing camber adjuster to keep the wheels relatively upright. the knuckle is just so much different.

I hadn't even noticed the ITB's. Surely they deserve their own focus picture!

what size discs then and i take it you have brembo calipers? have you thought about what filters or filter your going to use for the itb's or are you running them open?
