Angle Kits

[SoCalDrifter]

Ok i tried searching and didnt seem to find any threads maybe i didnt look hard enough but what are the best choices for angle kits??

Im looking to get one for my 14 and alot of people say PBM and wisefabs pretty good...havent heard of any others really....but is it better to buy a namebrand companys or is it the same if someone custom makes one for me?

x2 and op, you can't really put PBM and wisefab in the same sentence, they're astronomically different.

Who on here runs a wisefab kit?

[Hayaku Kenji]

I have and HIGHLY recommend Heat Lightning Knuckles and extended lower control arms. Great price and great products. I absolutely love the way that mine feel. I have a problem of not lifting so I tend to spin out but with these I have yet to spin. They are tested and proven on multiple cars and they offer multiple different forms of knuckles. From simple angle improvement to drop knuckles. Hit them up of Facebook.

[poundit]

I hate you...

How much did it cost? I didn't see any pricing...

$1780 Euros shipped to my door. Exchange rate depends on what your bank says it is.

[90pearlz]

^Baalllla^ I've never seen TDP before this. Actually if you priced out pbm parts LCA KNUCKS TIE RODS ETC... Well TDP is still more costly but looks like there was a ton of R&D that went into them. Looks beef! Do you have to redrill strut tower holes like wisefab? Hope not cuz that is wack

DAMN, those aren't cheap (DUH)!!!

Honestly though, based on pricing, engineering, design, and adjustability I think I like the GK tech ones. Yours are ballin as fuck, but I just don't think I need everything there. Since I don't give a crap about super maximum drift angle I don't really need the baller LCA assemblies, or all the angle designed into the knuckles. With the GK tech ones it seems that I could just buy the knuckles with standard steering geometry and buy shorter steering arm sections separately if I need it. That's a big plus IMO. their price is rather reasonable as well, especially considering what you're getting.

No need to redrill anything.

Yeah it just depends on how you want to do it. I wanted it all at once, without worrying about piecing together a kit from different parts. These have adjustable ackerman, have tons of roll center correction, and still allow you to play around with the camber plate and whatnot. That's the reason I bought them at least. Can't go wrong with something quality like GKTech though!

check out abercrombie motorsports they make a nice setup for 650 gonna go with that and when i grow experience wise ill upgrade but seems like it could take awhile

they have a new fd legal kit still not worth the price tag

[PoorMans180SX]

Oem.........

Thanks for your contribution to the thread?

Hahahah, I saved up long and hard for this, and sold a 4G63 I had been building for the past year to afford it. So yeah, still poor :sadwavey:

That depends on what you want to do with the car...

Those look nice! The main reason that I really like the GKtech ones is that they're aluminum. If I'm going to spend that kind of money on knuckles, why not lose some un-sprung weight while I'm at it!

I couldn't give a fuck less about "FD legal". I have NO aspirations of becoming a pro drifter. If I did I would do it in SOMEONE ELSE'S car (sponsorship)...
