Increasing the steering ratio? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Okay...I'm pretty new to the drifting scene and and i got the basics down skill wise and parts wise but now my issue is that I want more steering ratio. I thought that I can adjust the stop bolts but there isn't any. Do I need a new steering rack or what? Any help will do. Keep in mind i want to do this as cheap as possible. Thanks

Hit up mamsparts.com or poweredbymax, they both have lower control arm/spindle mod that will give you more angle, and both are about 400 dollars iirc.

Add those with tein inner tie rods and spacers and maybe spl outers, and you're set.

yes, you want knuckles, tie rods, etc.

Use the steering rack from a HICAS 240sx vs Non-HICAS

Steering racks from HICAS equipped 240sx' have a quicker lock.
