It's somewhere in here.... lol can't believe this thread has become 104 pages... well.... it's an aftermarket subframe that's based on an s14 design but with adjustability... apparently the squat can be adjusted and what have you... but seriously it's madly overpriced...

I suppose OP should include details on it in the opening thread.

so I did an alignment and put caster down to 6.25 degrees and I went out tonight and did a few laps and it handles like ass now hahaha taking it back to 7 ish so the car will atleast self steer a little and not just slap to full lock and stay there. I mean the dampers arent set and shit but I can tell that its just brutal maybe with a ton of reverse rake it would be ok.

Seconded, based on your description.

If you're not over-centering (You'll feel a noticeable bit of resistance as you attempt to pull the wheel off of lock if you are.) then you just weren't running enough caster.

Haven't been on here in ages, and I've just started to care about car stuff again, so I'm back on here.

Basically, just wanted to report not having any problems with the tie rod ends that I made, nor have I had any problems with the modded FLCAs, and I've been driving around on the street for a few months.

You can see in the picture that the front pickup points for the FLCA have been dropped A LOT. This reduces anti-squat, giving some more traction for the 1320 guys.

It's not worth anywhere near $3K.

Remind me of your steering modifications again... Are you adjusting caster with the tension rods?

If you can, take some pictures of the FLCA and tie rod end from below at full lock.

You're welcome! Just trying to give back to the community in a small way.

I'm excited to see you using the knuckles to their full ability, and you always make great reviews. I'm strongly considering ordering them myself.

Also, to everyone, I'm starting work on a revision to the original posts, I'll let you know when they're up!

its not overcentering because it doesnt get "stuck" i suppose it could be borderline overcentering but my steering stop is my sway bar so ya. it just feels weird becuase there is very very little self steer like it wont even transition without steering input. i am adjusting with tension rod. and I have an s13 with s14 control arms and modded pbm knuckles with 25mm rcc aswell. I have s14 inner and outer tie rods and georges spacers to make them long enough to run the good hole in the knuckles. front toe is aroun1/4 out ish and caster is 6.2 I will be putting it back to around 7 I think because i was not having any issues with 7.6. I sure did take self steering for granted though.

also the car cannot turn to full lock at a standstill. I have to roll the car forward or backward slightly. I am not worried about this I am just seeing what you all have to say and if its normal or not.

Thought this was a pretty cool pic of Dan's S15. Shows the LCA drop and a little better view of the angle the FLCA's sit at with the correction.

Dan, did you say we could purchase the psm rc mod independently from the max pro angle mod right? would the rc mod also include lowering the tie rod mounting point like previously pictured?

Yes we have the ability to do 45mm roll center with stock angle, stock quickness, stock ackerman, and no bump steer

yes that includes lowering the tie rod mounting point down like the pic of the angle mod, but it is not shortened for super angle.

Our CNC jig that we do this work on is precise and the settings are mirror images left to right side. Its properly engineered.

Your choice, Its $400 either way for the 45mm Pro grip or Pro drift knuckle mod.

I got to drive an S13 with the rack moved forward. Not sure how far. He said he had to extend his steering shaft a bit, so I assume he moved it as far forward as it will go.

Anyway, in mine, with ~13mm shorter knuckles and tie rod pickup lowered ~13mm, I usually give the wheel a flick to full lock to start a transition. And usually at full lock, I get some wobble. I assume that's from over-centering.

With his, I flicked it and the wheel didn't stop where I expected it to stop. So the transition was much harder than I anticipated and I thought I had spun us out. I left the throttle on and let the wheel go to full lock. I had lost way too much speed, and I was basically backward, but the rear end didn't come all the way around.

He has a lot more rear grip than I, but I'm still pretty excited to get some offset spacers. That way, I can add some caster again and get rid of my wobble.

No. He modded his with less ackerman. Probably dropped and shortened pretty close to the same though.

I haven't been around reading this thread, but what other mods have you done? Because a wobble could be loose/old worn out parts.

I don't use rack spacers with these, but I still have the factory stops on the control arms.

As the wheel moved back in the well, it gained angle as a trailing wheel. I liked that a lot, less ackerman without losing leading wheel angle. My 17x9 +9 was hitting the tension rod/sway bar hard.

But, as the leading wheel, the rack started bottoming out before the tie rod hit the control arm. I installed the MAX rack spacers again, and goofed around with it for a few hours to find a happy medium.


That's with the front of the wheel about 1/4" away from the sway bar.
That's about it. But I can see that the line from the inner tie rod end to the outer tie rod end might go right through the lower ball joint pivot. It's close.

That looks like you actually have more angle on the trailing wheel than the leading wheel.

That is probably where your problem is.

Your leading wheel is supposed to have more angle than the trailing wheel, or both wheels have the same angle, not the other way around.

Either you're high, or you're looking at the pictures backward. The top picture is my left wheel, bottom is right wheel. Both wheels are at full lock to the left. I took them standing behind the wheels.

And when I wrote that, I was confused about leading & trailing wheel. I was thinking the wheel in front while drifting was the leading wheel.

And now I read your post again, and I'm confused again. The 'leading wheel' is the wheel that follows during a drift, correct? Because if one were gripping the same corner, it would be the in front. Argh. Confusing.
