is there a mistake in the video when explaining the position for ackermann adjustment? the installation PDF shows the opposite for more/less ackermann on the bolt position.
I wanna get this kit but I'm afraid it will make the steering too fast. I like occasional track use with speeds over 200km/h and am worried this might make the car way too unstable. Any thought or experience with this? Also, I understand this definitely requires the VDC to be turned off, as well as some other ABS sensor due to high speed of turning the steering wheel? Please add some clarification. Thanks!
So I just installed this two days ago and whenever I turn to the left my car makes a creaking sound. Not a constant one but it’ll creak at certain points. Do you know what I could have done wrong?
@@abdoalaoy I ended up just greasing the ball joints and I haven’t heard a creaking sound since. I’ve been dailying this kit for almost a month now. No other issues. I’m not sure about your slip light. If it’s happening at low speeds it might just be the difference in wheel speed due to your new turning radius.
Does this space out the wheels at all? I have tight fitment up front on my 370z (10.5 +12) so I can't afford it to add more offset. I'd also need to make sure I'm not hitting anything inside at the angle this provides
Also I see this kit changes the steering angle from 37 degrees up to 60. Is there a way to adjust the degree of angle you can get? Like setting it to 45 or 50 degrees of angle instead of the full 60? Not looking to make my G37 a full blown drift car just want to add a little angle and better steering response for a street setup and to also shorten the turning radius by a bit for easier maneuverability.
The angle is not adjustable, angle comes down to clearance, the more clearance the more angle. The kit can get 60degrees but more then likely before then you will have clearance issues, which will limit your angle.
Any answers if this fits on the mid year g35? I was informed that this kit did not fit on my face lifted late 07 g35 sedan because this was a mid year car right before the g37.
Hi guys, i have a stupid question. Im going to install this kit in few days on my car, and i want the angel of ackerman 50%/50% between left and right wheel. So what i supposed to do (to put nut inward or outward to get my wheels looking nearly one way?)
You'll still have faster steering and you will still see a change in ackerman but the lead wheel is going to be reduced in angle that would otherwise be achieved.
Every product comes with it's own printed assembly guide which is also accessible VIA PDF on the website, some people are visual learners and require further assistance and well honestly - we like making fun install videos. I think that's okay?
There subtle jokes are priceless!
“You get long AF bolts”.
“Best 27 layer paint job!”
“You will need to clear the nut (as she said)”
I wish all instructions in my life were given in this same style! Hahaha
Word!
Dan makes these look so simple, i feel like the next step is customizing a SpaceX Raptor
Dan definitely does, as does the rest of the team involved in making these awesome videos!
I only make it sound good, them boys actually put the parts on the car and edit the vids
I'm doing this right now. Your paper instructions say to torque tie rod nut to 95 lbs ft, but video said 35 lbs ft. Is there a mistake?
Will this fit my g37 sedan?

Aye bro did you ever figure out was the creaking is from? I’m this problem now, installed yesterday
Same issue here 😪
it also triggers my Slip light, almost feels like understeer but Its not. Any help would be appreciated!

They will not increase any width. As for clearance on lock, that comes down to lots of factors and we cannot confirm you won't hit anything.

Will this work on a infinity m35/m45 car?
Hi Bruce, unfortunately we cannot confirm fitment.
If I just shaved the "fun stopper" that's shown at 1.50 and didnt install this kit would that add any angle/reduce turning radius at all?
Shaving said fun stopper will give you a small amount of additional lock, but not as much as the kit would in additional to removing the fun stopper.
How wide of a wheel and what offsets do they clear

I can't confirm fitment without seeing the chassis, send an email to sales@gktech.com and we can help out!

As i understood outward is right choose for me?
@@ossyyss3443 If you wanted your wheels to be travelling at the same rate, the shims would need to be facing outwards for less ackerman.
If i dont want to cut the stopper will i still see an increase in angle/akerman?
You'll still have faster steering and you will still see a change in ackerman but the lead wheel is going to be reduced in angle that would otherwise be achieved.
With this do you need anything additional like camber arms? Or is oem fine?
You can use your OEM camber arms with this steering kit!
is this the model that works on 07-08 g35 sedans?
Best to reach out to sales@gktech.com to confirm fitment.
@@gktech they cant give me a straight answer
Print out f*cking instructions instead of a god damn YT video.....
