- Comparision of a few types of angle kits. Common ways of getting increased steering. When I was first resaerching angle kits, it was diffcult to decide was is the best for me. So thought this would help some one especially now that the ZN6 chasis are becoming more popular in the drift scene.

Great explanation of how they work and the pros and cons of each. I was gonna go GKTech, but I don't like having to worry about the nuts coming loose or the heim joint wearing out since the 86 is my daily. I also don't like the idea of cutting and welding the knuckle. Maybe I'll just stay stock for now.
Some good info in here! I was thinking about trying the gktech kit but the car is still a street car so I’m glad to hear that it’s drives fairly normal
Review the B knuckle next
Very informational. Thank you! I'd love to see a video as well going in depth on fixing the rubbing issues for maximum angle. Im currently running p2m inner tie rods on a 18x9.5+38 and had a 20mm spacer and it was rubbing my inner tire pretty bad by the wheel well, planning on running a bigger spacer but i havent seen a lot of video address this kinds of issue when adding angle to these cars
Good point. I’ll see what info I can dig up. But yea these cars don’t make it easy to run big wheels. Had to run a 25mm spacer just with the stock wheel. And friends had to go over 30mm to fit a 9.5 wheel. But that was with a lot of angle.
I think the sweet spot for the front is 17x9 and less. any offset is fine with spacers being available. rear is whatever you want.
Appreciate the details. Talked me out of all these option though lol. Will just replace all the arms with fdf or wisefab kit probably
Haha yea, you will definitely get the best driving feel out of a full kit. Their geometry usually is better designed than stock control arms for drifting.
@@dSDays just dont think it will be quite enough 😅 looks like gktech makes a full kit too
@@DrivenMars I can see how you would want more but I stopped here cause I’d have to either get wider fenders or aggressive camber to support the angle those big kits give you. Just doesn’t seem reasonable for a car I take to work lol
If u were to install either the cut/drilled knuckles or GK tech angle together with the inner rack spacers, is there possibly to get more than 60 degrees angle?
I think Gktech + rack spacers will surpass 60 but i bet you need their front lca cause their tie rod hits the stock arm which limits the angle. At least in the V2. The cut knuckles will depend on how aggressive of a cut was done. Drift knuckles site says 60+. I assume it’s with spacers.
I already have aftermarket front LCA by Hardrace, will it work as well?
I wish there was a exact angle difference between the three
I will take measurements on my car very soon. I’ve just been delaying installing the knuckles. However the exact angle can vary based on other suspension mods and alignment on your car.
