GT86 BOLT ON ANGLE KIT WITH ACKERMAN ADJUSTMENT
The GKTECH ZN6 86/GR86/ ZC6 BRZ bolt on angle kit is a simple, lightweight, yet super effective bolt on steering kit.
It is a bolt on kit, meaning it can be fitted and removed with no modifications. A completely reversible install.
With 30% faster steering these are suitable for both the dedicated drift cars whilst working equally as well for a grip/street car looking to speed your steering up.
If you own one of these vehicles, you would know the OEM steering angle on the GT86 sucks! We measured them to having less than 40 degrees lead wheel and even less trailing. This kit will allow you to get around 60 degrees of lock lead wheel and with adjustable ackerman you can acheive near parallel front steering.
More information on this can be seen in the FAQ below.
- 30% faster steering
- Adjustable ackerman
- Circa 60 degrees of steering lock
Will this fit the aluminium knuckle?
No, this is designed to suit the steel knuckle only.
What size wheel spec should I use for best clearance?
Any size wheel would work, but optimally for the GT86 chassis you want as much inside clearance as possible so that you can clear the frame rails etc on lock.
When testing we used a 18x9 +12 wheel for most of our bolt on angle kit testing to get the most amount of lock.
It does depend on your suspension, ride height, tyre size etc, as these chassis are notorious for clearance issues please keep in mind that a slip on spacer or lock stop may need to be used, the above wheel size is a starting point only.
Does installing this kit require a wheel alignment?
Yes, it alters both toe so a wheel alignment will be required after installation.
Will I have any issues with lights on the dash?
Potentially, when changing the geometry in the front, the wheel speed sensors can cause the TC light to come on the dash.
If you wanted to disable the TC, in track conditions only, you just need to hold down the traction control button & the stability button for 10seconds.
Then just press them again to turn them back on and or turn the car off and on again for them to reset back to normal.
