Ok I'v just read this whole thread lol hahaha I'v been drifting for bout 2 years now and I'v learnt so much reading this, I have a few questions now!
Whats a KPI mod? bump steer? I have a few modded chassie myself, and understand that the sakura mods ya guys are doing is to create more lock, I struggle with a type of dyslexia where names and terms take awhile to sink in and I cant recall things I'v learnt, Please excuse me if i ask the same question
Do the mst knuckles work with the stock c hub or are they deleted so the knuckles can be used?
OK check out
suspension tuning 101 the KPI is covered there in detail. Bump steer is exactly that, when the linkages aren't straight and you hit a bump it throws the car off balance. The knuckles won't fit the C-hubs unless you cut them down or delete them and when deleted you also need to cut the A-arms back to incorporate a ball end. I have a new set of short MST knuckles on the way and some Square R31 48mm wide angle CVD's coming when I take my front end apart I'll snap a few pics for you to see what I'm talking about

Nice I want to see how they look on yours too have you given any thought to price for making a set of lower arms?
What do you guys use to turn your turnbuckles? I've been taking it off and adjusting with two pliers and it sucks.

I agree but the turnbuckle that came with the car keeps slipping. Since this is my first chassis I don't have the tools. I'll definitely look into another one. They're 3mm right?
yeah you can get a set from
3racing

My camera is playing up and the loan camera fell through...sorry... When I can actually get pics again I'll update in my thread.
The price of the custom arms has been difficult. I'll pm you a price once I make some more.
