Thumbs up KPR steering angle kit, this car should come from the factory like this

I can only say, goodbye 3 point turns. Of course I'm down to the threads on my tires so I can't properly test them out.

I said the same thing when these first came out. I don't know why every car doesn't have these. It can't cost THAT much to add what 3" to the exsiting parts they use and it is so practicle for turning.

I assume it has to to something bad for your car, I really see no reason all cars have such narrow wheel angle compared to what it could be.

yeah you have some outter camber wear, unless you just recently flipped the tires.

If you do any kind of hard cornering with he factory camber settings, the outer shoulder will eat away very, very fast.

My OEM 19's were worn out like that, had 15% left on the outside and ~50% on the inside...

It was actually a PITA to get these, and I actually got them from another member.

Looking for a set myself.
Even the D1 brand (Blue outer tie rod ends) will work.

get some coilovers with camber plates if you don't already. put a good amount of negative camber in there to get rid of that outer wear

You bastard, I had just forgotten about this kit and how it's no longer available...WHY DID YOU HAVE TO COME BACK AND STAB MY DREAMS?!

Srsly, if someone finds a set of these, I will pay. I NEED these so I can get my drifts more stable, I'm so sick of out-sliding my turn radius. My friend's '88 volvo 240DL WAGON can outdo me lock2lock and his is stock steering.

I know there is at least 2 other companies that had or were working on these

On a side note does anyone know if 9.5's up front will work with these? Maybe if anyone with a steering angle kit and some aftermarket wheels could chime in.

KPR went out of business a while ago...

We can sure get something similar (or better) from Synchro G drifters in Korea.
Sure it's MUST have not to spin out doing your donuts or going sideways.

Hey, how you been? that vega kit is looking sexy.
Basically it just lets you turn an extra rotation on the steering wheel, so when your real sideways you can hold it there

oh and it also lets you pull mad tight U turns and makes your turn radius way smaller.

Can't some one just take a KPR kit and copy it. If I had a kit I would definitely look into it.
