My Drift Spec S15 Build - Angle Knuckle Kit

Hi Everyone! Today, we will be looking at the wide angle knuckle kit i have installed for our S15 chasis. This kit is called WiseFab and is from Europe. A lot of the drifters in the All Stars Eastern Europe drift series are using this. Even Fredric Aasbo has tested it on his speedhunters supra and had some very good feedback with regards to its handling and speed.

With the WiseFab kit, we are able to obtain one of the biggest lock angles in the world at the moment with 65 degrees of lock! I think that would be quite insane to test out once the car is up and running. This kit comes fully engineered with knuckle, tie-rod, lower arms and ackermann adjustment kit. It also has a relocation kit for the suspension mountings which will need to achieve the high degree of lock without hitting the chasis.

There's been some issues with the regulations for Formula Drift Asia series due to their technical rulings. To cut a long story short, we have discussed with them and can use the kit for 2012 season but for 2013, it is still uncertain what is to happen. After giving it much consideration, i decided that we will still go with the kit as i believe it will be insanely fun to drift with. Afterall, we ain't drifting just for a single drift competition, its more for the passion of the sport itself :) There are also numerous other events across our borders which we can participate running this setup so why not right? Stay tuned as i will be updating more on the new bodykit and spray work thats already been done to the car and the progress from there. Till then, keep drifting fun!
