2jz KSRACING swap subframe help
 
I USE FOR MY FD 2JZ 2INCH DROP original subframe, I have hks coilover. Im trying to make the coils like first then I put a spacer 3inch between the body and coils, but now when i drive the car I think there is some mistake on tie rod or I dont know, maybe the couks touch the arm

Did any body use this subframe?

It's called BUMPSTEER from having lowered your steering rack 2 inches.

Same issue I will have.

You need bumpsteer spacers.

I haven't purchased anything just yet.

I intend to, I'm just waiting for the shop to at least get the stupid car RUNNING first before I throw in additional parts into the mix.

The problem with the KS Racing "kit" is that it also lowers the mounts for the lower control arms so it completely destroys the suspension geometry. You won't be able to fix it with spacers. You need a different mounting kit.

Yeah, I looked at that kit a while ago and I couldn't even figure out how you can screw the nuts and bolts back on to reattach the subframe through those 2" spacers.
