DESCRIPTION
The GKTECH Z34 370z/V36 Skyline 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 permanent modifications other than the trimming of the factory lock stop if you wish to.
With 33% 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 Z/V chassis sucks! We measured them to having around 37 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.
- 33% faster steering
- Adjustable ackerman
- Circa 60 degrees of steering lock
With months of testing prior to release from all around the world including one of the worlds best Luke Fink here in Australia, Formula Drift judge Robbie Nishida in Japan and Takeshi Teruya in New Zealand! To see more of what they had to say you can check out their YouTube video's below showing the simple install process and first impressions:
Luke Fink
"This car feels so much better, I can do whatever I want now. It's so much more snappy and almost S chassis like!"

Robbie Nishida
"The angle kit makes a big difference! I can hold deep angle for a good amount of time, and the ackerman feels really good. You need one of these cars!"

Takeshi Teruya
"My V36 is much fun to drift with this lock kit! Ackerman is a good match for a big fast entry and nice flow track layout, can also be for a snappy transition!"

FAQ'S
Does installing this kit require a wheel alignment?Yes, it alters both toe so a wheel alignment will be required after installation.Will this fit my car?We can only confirm fitment for the vehicles listed above under "vehicle compatibility". If your car is not listed there, then we don't know if it will fit.Is there anything else needed for installation?There is not, however, in terms of the kit itself it will arrive as shown in the product photo.Can I install this myself? If so how long will installation take?Yes, provided you have general mechanical knowledge as they are relitively straightforward. Installation time should be around 30 minutes. However, being a suspension component we recommend only a trained professional to install this product
Am I going to have any problems with an increase in lock with this steering kit?Being that the steering kit increases steering angle and changes the ackerman this in turn may cause a light to appear on the dash along with the engagement of VDC.
To circumvent this, we recommend to bypass the factory YAW sensor or you can unplug it entirely.
Note that disabling the YAW sensor may not be legal for road use, please contact your local RTA if this is a concern for you and or effects your intention of use.What wheel specs are optimal?From our test vehicles we found higher offsets (around +30 or so) were best for fitment to avoid having a huge scrub radius (particularly when running an 18"+ wheel)Do I need to use steering rack spacers?You do not. This steering kit does not require the use of a rack spacer (either offset or non offset).
Are there any special tools required?No, a spanner set will do the job which we do sell separately here - https://au.gktech.com/open-ended-spanners
