Here is the product description for the Nissan kit.
Engineered for performance and handling
• 65 degrees of lock, parallel steering - both wheels turn the same angle. As an option, there would be a possibility to buy Ackermann adjustment kit. You could tune your steering geometry either towards positive or negative Ackermann in just a few minutes even at track side without messing up an alignment.
• Higher roll center (RC). Lowering the car would mess up the original factory designed kinematics, especially with MacPherson suspension. On Wisefab knuckle, the ball joint is lowered 56mm, which brings the front RC up on lowered car, providing higher roll stiffness and letting to remove the front anti roll bar (sway bar) that is quite difficult to package with that high lock angles.
• Very good camber control and minimal bump steer with high steering angles. On drift cars the dynamic camber and bump steer is much more important than static. With our kinematics we have assured that the camber would provide very good front grip and bump steer is minimal at all the range of steering.
• Steering jacking control. During steering the car chassis is moving up and down – this is called jacking. Steering jacking is caused by combination of caster, KPI, trail and scrub. On road cars, this effect is used sometimes to balance the car or to help to turn in. During drifting, when steering angle is much bigger, jacking is also bigger, even with the same geometry and it could become a problem. We have changed the geometry that it doesn’t cause any handling issues.
• Consistent and predictable self-alignment torque. Caster is not the only important parameter to provide sufficient self-alignment torque especially at high lock. It’s the combination of different parameters to maintain consistent trail and self-alignment torque. With our setup the steering wheel turns always to the direction of movement and doesn’t get stuck at full lock.
• Other components, packaging and clearance.
This kit assumes coil-overs to have enough clearance.
Dependent on rim width and ET, wider fenders or fender flares would be needed.
15“original rim could be used if needed.
With tire diameter not bigger than 605mm (215/40R17) and lowered ride height the inner wheel wells don’t have to be modified.
With tire diameter up to 635mm (215/45R17, 225/45R17, 235/40R17, 225/40R18 etc) and lowered ride height the inner wheel wells need to be slightly modified.
Recommended backspacing is 135-140mm (7“ ET45; 8“ ET35; 9“ ET25). If ET is smaller, then wheels stay more outwards, if ET is bigger, then spacers need to be used.
• The kit is designed and manufactured the way that after installation and toe adjustment it’s ready to use right away.
Happy drifting!

Now we start taking pre-orders up until 15th of January. Those who pre-order get the ackermann adjustment kit for free, later on it will be sold as an extra for 70$ per set. And who pre-order will get the kit by end of January. The price is 1550$ + shipping. It is one of the expensive kits out there right now, but as long as I know, it is by far the best product on the market with the best kinematics, geometry and angle. We have a patent pending on it right now.
