PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Wisefab BMW E46 3 series Drift Angle kit is the ultimate steering lock kit for a BMW E46 or BMW E46 M3 (The new V2 kit fits both versions)
This is the "Pro Long Trail" version. It has a more aggressive knuckle adapter design that offers more "jacking" and even faster self-steer. It is designed for Pro level drivers that want a car with sharp steering response that snaps to lock aggressively. If you aren't a pro level driver, we recommend choosing the normal Wisefab E46 V2 lock kit, which will still offer amazing handling and steering lock whilst being a little 'calmer' than this version.
The new V2 kit now has the ability to adjust the ackermann angle (from the knuckle add-on) and also the caster (from the top mount). These new features make adjustment convenient and handy.
The V2 kit is suitable for both standard models and M3.
Kit Details
- Higher roll center Wisefab suspension kit brings the front roll center up on lowered cars, providing higher roll stiffness.
- Revised steering geometry (trail and Ackermann) You could tune your steering geometry either towards positive or negative Ackermann in just a few minutes even at trackside without messing up an alignment.
- Good camber control with high steering angles With high steering angles the leading wheel will have a positive camber, which is not a positive effect. It reduces the front grip and during turn or flip it creates a contact patch transition from inside edge to outside edge. It is not possible to eliminate it, but with our geometry it has decreased as much as possible.
- Steering jacking control 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 monitored it and changed the geometry that it doesn’t cause any handling issues.
- Predictable self-alignment control With certain suspension geometry at high steering angles it could happen that the steering wheel is locking up at the end and driver needs to apply some force to flip it to other side. We know what causes it and have decreased it to minimum, if not eliminated it.
- Adjustable lock-stopper.
- Stronger inner ball joint design over OEM and older Wisefab version.
- Adjustable coilover top mounts, Formula Drift compliant.
- Hub add-ons with Ackermann adjustment hardware.
- Lightweight lower control arms.
- Assembled tie rods.
- Adjustable lower control arm rear mount / lollipop bush.
