What is a Backorder?

Q: What is backorder?

When a product is on backorder, it means that we have sold out and we are opening a back order due to popular demand. This is essentially a queue, when new stock arrives from production, we’ll send your order.

Q: Will items in my order that are in stock be shipped out first?

We will send your order altogether once your backorder item is ready! You may wish to place separate orders if you want an item before the other is due back in stock.

Product enquiry

combined 8 years of product development and over 1,000 pairs sold we bring to you the V2 S/R/Z32 chassis rear knuckles. We have developed a lightweight yet strong drop knuckle. They come with dual caliper brackets as standard, high-quality PTFE lined spherical bearings throughout and have all new kinematics to drastically improve anti-squat, bump steer, camber gain curves and raised roll center height. The V2 adds even more ridgidity over our very popular V1.


- Ability to run dualcaliperwithout spacing the rotor out
- Ability to rundrumbrake in standard position with dualcalipers(or singlecaliper) installed
- The drop is 40 mm - optimized for cars 40 mm lower than factory ride height (more drop would have required proprietary arms)
- High-quality PTFE lined spherical bearings throughout as standard, common bearing size so replacements are easy to getandaffordable (QA1/FK part #COM10T)
- All new kinematics to significantly increase grip over regular drop knuckles
- Optimized camber curve for more even tire wear
- Optimized bump steer for toe-in under compression without OEM arms' elastokinematics
- Increased anti-squat for more rear weight transfer and traction
- Raised rollcenterheight for better handling
- Lightweight sheet metal design optimized using finite element analyses for ultimate strength - fully dressed weight (bearings, spacers, circlips) 3.9kg (standard knuckle is 5.1kg)
- Clearance for larger GTR drive shafts

INSTALLATION NOTES:

- To be mounted with bearing mounting holes perpendicular to the ground in static height (extended LCA's that push the wheel out to the rear of the wheel arch will NOT work well, or at all if extended too far out). Note that our rear LCA's adjust perpendicular to the centerline of the car, which makes sense.

- Will fit all GTR and Z32 chassis' with the use of an S chassis style lower coilover mounting.

- Will clear 17" rims (and even 16" rims with low offsets) and all 18" rims but please note that the closer the rim sits in the wheel-well, the greater the chance that the toe arm mount will come close to hitting. A 17x10.5 +22 Enkei RPF1 wheel was tested and still has around 5 mm of clearance (ample)

- Aftermarket camber, toe and traction rods ARE required and MUST have rose joints as the suspension mounting points on the knuckle are in significantly altered and rubber or similar wouldn't have enough misalignment to work. Lower control arms can be OEM or aftermarket and do not need to be changed. OEM bushings in lower control arms will produce different bump steer curves

- The Wilwood dual caliper bracket that we offer do NOT fit on these knuckles

- OEM S-chassis single piston calipers can be used in a single or dual configuration BUT the drum lever won't fit without modifications.

- OEM GTS-T/GT-R/Z32 2 piston calipers are a direct fit and the OEM drum assembly fits just like OEM.

- For optimal results, S14/S15 or R33 subframe is recommended, or the use of our S13/R32 RLCA anti squat kit:
S13/180SX/R32 SUBFRAME ANTI-SQUAT REDUCTION WELD IN KIT

Nylocks

The suspension is great but tightening the nylocks is not. You have to have a SIGNIFICANT amount of force on the nylock to tighten it (prevailing force). I understand from a theoretical standpoint as to why they’re used since they can’t come loose easy but from an install and removal standpoint if you can’t tighten the nut down then what’s the use? It would make more sense to just use threadlocker as opposed to a nylock or even just following a torque spec. oem has zero issues with a torque spec they don’t loosen from my experience. I had to use a floor jack and compress the suspension all on the ratchet just to tighten these nylocks down once everything was in place. Id also have to assume it’s supposed to be tightened to oem torque specs anyway so I don’t understand the reasoning for needing a nylock? I’d suggest replacing the nuts themselves honestly. Not the best idea.

Havnt used them yet still in the process of building the car but was quick and fast delivery happy with the product thanks

Grip & machining quality +

Great grip on the rear of my s14. Weld quality and fitment are on point. I did have to chase threads on lower shock mount, which I find unacceptable.

Hi Devon, sorry to hear that you had a problem with the rear studs. We do try and protect them in shipping but it's not impossible for them to get damaged in shipping. Did you reach out to anyone in sales to get you sorted?

I have the Gktech front and rear knuckles in my R34 track car and rate them highly. Handling, grip and control is amazing 10/10 would recommend

Impressed!

Mate, I’m still super impressed with your rear knuckles. It always surprises me
