You really need to measure things up before you go 'customising' the tierods, lower arms, or steering knuckles.
toe out? adjust the steering so that both wheels are pointing straight ahead, if you mean positive camber...then that's a little different.
Could you switch the steering knuckles? So the different tierod diameter is causing you trouble? Meaning you have to run the original 120y stuff, which means you can't get enough toe, to keep the alignment straight ahead?

here's the thing: The stanza struts need the later 120y lower control arms and castor bars as the older items wont let the stanza knuckle fit. Also, my tie rod end are typically stuck and I can't make them budge

probably one of the only times where "if all else fails, get a bigger hammer" is the right thing to do

I found the best way is to get them customised with a little extra thread. so you can use the tie-rod's you want and have enough room to set them up better than stock. We have an old dude in syd who rallys datto's and does them from home.
