i'm getting a little frustrated with drift parts for the z. who makes drift tie rods that are available right now? jic says theres will be ready in a few months, and i have no clue about teins. anyone know of a reputable company who makes them?

also, has anyone tried all the different brake pads for their ebrake, and know which ones work well? i just can't make the stock ones do what i want. they are extremely weak and fade super fast.

 

Battle Version makes a rear camber rod.


As far as the E-brake, I know exactly what you mean. There may be hope though, I have the latest Hyper-Rev magazine and it shows a pair of brake shoes made by Rigid for the Z33. I can only assume that they are an upgrade. Unfortunatley, I can't read Japanese. I guess I'll have to go see that sushi guy again.

 

who makes drifting tie rods for the z?

 

so what type of e-brake pad did you go with????

 

Drift part question: I have tein basic coilovers and a kaaz lsd comming in...i have pretty bad camber and toe =\ am i required to fix the camber and toe to safely drift??

 

Project Mu makes E brake shoes for drifting supposedly. There is a thread here somewhere that has a link to the parts. Battle version can make inner tie rods, too. Just look at the last 10-15 threads on this forum.

 

I wouldnt say to safely drift but you will deff burn out your tires unevenly when drifting. I am currently installing tierods and rear camber equipment because of that. Sucks to burn only one side of the tire and then have to rotate them or throw them away.

 

a friend of mine has those brake pads in the rear, they are better than the stock setup, but still leave a bit to be desired. he lengthened the ebrake handle considerably to try and give it a bit more leverage, used those pads, adjusted the cable a bit, and was decently happy with the setup if i recall. i don't really remember how much he liked it, but he did use it in formula d last year. i skipped all that except for the adjusting part and went for hydro.

 

I have a set of JIC tie rods new in box if you want, pm me

 

^^PM sent.

 

where can I find out more info on this hydro e-brake?
