Suffice to say I don't want to start a big pinning discussion here ... but I felt that especially for track/race application I would be more comfortable having something designed from the ground up without play.
No pics as yet. My part is being used for reverse engineering and prototyping.
Yup, this one... NLA.

Pardon if this is a stupid question, but would these be suitable for any 993, one say with stock uprights at ROW Sport height, or are they more suited to one that is closer to RS height with RS uprights.

Another stupid question.
I am new to 993 parts. I am converting the front end of my 964 track car to 993 uprights I have this single tie rod currently. Since there is a single monoball at the end would I be correct in assuming this is the RS version and not the standard??

Ok, actually, yes there are. But this isn't one of 'em
We are talking about the inner half of the tie-rods here, hence the upgraded part will work with any outer (stock, RS, RSR/EVO, ERP) tie-rod and/or upright combination.

Pics below show EVO inner tie rod with RS outer tie rod (lower one in the first picture) and then an example of ERP vs. RS outer tie rods.

Each tie rod, there are 2, one on the left and one on the right, comes in 2 parts
outer and inner
Here is a complete outer inner set for one side, the top one is a standard 993 w/ the rubber inner connection and bent outer to mate to the stock 993 wheel carrier
An after market outer for bump correction w/ a 993RS outer also for bump correction . The aftermarket is adjustable. Both mate to the short arm 993RS wheel carrier
2 inners, the top is the 993Cup/RSR part w/ mono-ball, bottom is stock 993, the 993RS inner would look the same but would have stiffer rubber connection
993RS short arm wheel carrier and RS outer on the left, standard 993 wheel carrier and bent outer on the right. RS mounts beneath the wheel carrier arm, 993 mounts above
the 993 uses a longer tie rod than 964 so if the 993RS or standard parts are used on a 964 they will need to be shortened.

Timeline unknown at this stage but I think "months" is a safe guess. I really hope for early summer. Hence why I want to get a list together NOW and present it to the guys in question asap.
Price, shipping, date.... I just don't know yet.
Just let me know if you're interested.

my 1995 Carrera has a slight issue.
After a hard left or right turn the steering wheel goes off center. It eventually returns back to center but it is odd to be driving with the steering wheel off center after a hard corner even if for only a minute...
Would these tie rods be the answer?

It appears I have standard 993 parts. I will try pinning them for now but I am interested in a set. I can upgrade later.

993RS wheel carrier w/ short arm uses the straighter RS outer
standard 993 wheel carrier uses the bent outer

the rack is rubber mounted
the tierods have rubber connections
the suspension components are mounted in rubber
there isn't a lot of caster
there isn't a lot of scrub radius
the wheels and tires are a bit undersized
all contribute to vague on center feel and weak on center return
