How to increase 350z steering angle?
Hello everybody I own a 350z. Does anybody make any knuckle kits for the 350z, because my steering angle feels very limited compared to 240! I would to like to increase my steering angle because I plan on entering some drift events in the near future. I have tie rods on the car now but would like to have more angle. I know Powered by Max makes knuckle kits for the S-chassis but what about Z33?
Basically you need to take the steering bump stops out. Then your next limiting factor is the inner tie rods into the steering shaft. You will just need to find inner tie rods that fit into the steering shaft instead of hitting it and you will have all the angle you will ever need.

Batlground Engineering seems to have made one. Not sure if its available to the public yet... Quoted from 240atlanta.com

I'm not sure how much more angle you would need after cutting the steering stops and replacing the tie rods (inner and outter) with teins seems to give some mad angle...

I've always heard about cutting the steering stops, but I haven't talked to anyone who has done it. I'm curious if there is any "steering binding" issues.
This angle kit is a very nice thing to see. I was talking to a guy who makes knuckles for S-chassis but since we have a different front setup, he couldn't do anything in the near future for me.

yea I cut my stops but I want more steering angle. They don't add much angle. I have the tein inner tie rods and spl outter tie rods.
Batlground said the kit for the z will be 1500 since you have to modify a lot. I'm def getting it once it is out. I had the to sports knuckles on my 240 and 52 degrees of steering angles was awesome you can go in almost backwards in corners and pull it out. So 55 degrees will be great.

Went on the Batlground site and seems like their "product" info page is disabled or what not. Am I the only one that has this problem?

idk... thats pretty expensive. Not saying that it's not quality, just pricy.
