Default Aftermarket Steering knuckles?

Im currently Getting my S2000 in Spec for Drifting. Yes, I know its not the perfect car to drift but I like a challenge and being unique and not being "just another 240" or rx7.


Anyways, Im looking for After Market Steering Knuckles to get more angle out of my Turning Radious. So Far Ive had no luck. I know alot of Nissan Guys run them. But cant find anything on S2ks.

So if I cant Find a Aftermarket one. is it possible for A shop to modify my stock knuckles. or Any Other mod that would get more angle?


Any Info will help!

The front lower balljoint carrier is a bolt on piece so making one with different ackerman or quicker ratio/more steer angle should be doable by any capable design/fab shop.

Ya I know this isnt my first time Drifting, Ive Owned a s13 and s14 both with sr20's and broke everything lmao.

And I dont have any pics yet :/ it was on a Private Course (Very Wealthy) And there was only one person Photographing. I want to take a Video so bad though.


ANYWAYS! Some Progress, I looked up more. Found that Megan Makes Tie Rod ends that "Add slightly more steering angle" Does anyone Have these or know just how much more angle you get out of them?
