The GKTECH V3 Z33 350z/V35 angle kit is a simple, lightweight, yet super effective bolt on steering kit. It is a bolt on kit, meaning it can be fitted and removed with no modifications. A completely reversible install, even when used with our Super Lock Lower Control Arms! With 30% faser steering these are suitable for both the dedicated drift cars whilst working equally as well for a grip/street car looking to speed your steering up.
If you own one of these vehicles, you would know the OEM steering angle on the Z/V chassis sucks! We measured them to having around 37 degrees lead wheel and even less trailing. This kit will allow you to get around 60 degrees of lock lead wheel and with adjustable ackerman you can acheive near parallel front steering.
We strongly recommend our bolt on rack spacer to make the most of the kit but they are an optional item as some people may already have a rack spacer. (SOLD SEPARATELY). To get the most out of your 350Z/V35 angle kit and to correct the poor geometry of the OEM 2pc lower control arm, we recommend our Super Lock Lower Control Arms (SOLD SEPARATELY)
More information on this can be seen in the FAQ below.
- 30% faster steering
- Adjustable ackerman
- Circa 60 degrees of steering lock
FAQs
Does installing this kit require a wheel alignment?Yes, it alters both toe so a wheel alignment will be required after installation.
Will this fit my car?
We can only confirm fitment for the vehicles listed above under vehicle compatibility. If your car is not listed there, then we don't know if it will fit.
Is there anything else needed for installation?
There is not, however, in terms of the kit itself it will arrive as shown in the product photo.
Can I install this myself? If so how long will installation take?
Yes, provided you have general mechanical knowledge as they are relitively straightforward. Installation time should be around 30 minutes. However, being a suspension componentwe recommend only a trained professional to install this product
What wheel specs are optimal?
The 350z/V35's have a HUGE swaybar up front which is not ideal. Some customers choose to remove this which certainly helps with clearance. From our test vehicles we found low offsets (near 0 or even negative) were best for fitment without the use of extended FLCA's. The swaybar being the main issue.
What size wheel specs should I use for the best clearance?
Whilst this usually has a really large number of variables (Tyre size, ride height, shock stiffness, wheel spacers, LCA length and more!) it's very simple with the Z33 350Z/G35! Answer: Any! Well, within reason. But we've tested all the way from 9.5 -17 on an 18" wheel and up to a 19x10 with a 255! My recommendation is an 18x9.5 +12/20 with a 235/40/18, these are very popular wheel and tyre sizes with HEAPS of clearance. By using a common wheel and tyre size, it keeps it affordable and it keeps it easy to get spares/access to more at the track (in case of emergency!).
If you have a crazy wheel spec and still have clearance, get in touch! We'll share it here!
Although, whilst there is no reason to bash the chassis. The 350z/V35's have a HUGE swaybar up front which is not ideal. Some customers choose to remove this which certainly helps with clearance on set ups using OEM lower control arms.
Do I need bolt on rack spacers?
It is not completely neccessary, if you are chasing lock, then we do recommend the bolt on rack spacers this will allow for more travel of the rack, which results in more steering lock.If you are not chasing steering lock and just want to have faster steering, then the bolt on rack spacers are not a requirement.
Should I get offset rack spacers or bolt on rack spacers?
This boils down to your setup, if you have low offset wheels and adjustable arms already and feel as if, if you had more lock the steering may over center, then we recommend the offset rack spacers, as they still provide adequate rack travel while also mitigating over-centering.If your setup is fairly standard and you just want to obtain more steering lock, then I would just recommend the bolt on rack spacers, which to date is adequate.
I already have inner tie rod ends that have rack spacers built in, should I get your bolt on rack spacers?
The aim of the game is to unlock the full potential of the steering rack through rack spacers. If you inner tie rod ends already have them built in, thats fine and they still can be used, but we do recommend checking if that is a limiting factor (assuming they are shorter then the ones we recommend) if they are then we suggest the bolt on rack spacers, because who doesn't like more lock right? ...... right!
Am I going to have any problems with an increase in lock with this steering kit?
Being that the steering kit increases steering angle and changes the ackerman this in turn may cause a light to appear on the dash along with the engagement of VDC.
To circumvent this, we recommend to bypass the factory YAW sensor or you can unplug it entirely.
Note that disabling the YAW sensor may not be legal for road use, please contact your local RTA if this is a concern for you and or effects your intention of use.What is the difference between the V2 and V3?The V2 wsa a great design and had near zero ackerman which a lot of people liked. Some people would prefer more ackerman and as such we have now introduced the ability to easily adjust ackerman.
Are there any special tools required?
No, a spanner set will do the job which we do sell separately here - Double open ended spanners

Customer Reviews
Gamechanger coming from stock angle! Easy to install with simple instructions included and fantastic customer support if needed.
Great product and it want break the bank. I Didn’t measure angle difference but you can definitely tell and feel the difference
The kit is fantastic. Perfect angle.
Great over all! Just some popping and clunking noise from the passenger front side
Hi Antwon, if you've got any noise I would suggest having a look ASAP to see where it's coming from.
Everything is super, the seller is excellent, delivery is fast, what else is needed to make the buyer happy? :)
