Increased steering throw ZX5
 
Guys

Was at my local track on sunday and was getting fed up with lack off lock on the car. So i sat down and had a look at what i had in the pit box. Looking at the the old version the steering knouckles where hitting the front gear box cover near the screws. So i stripped down the steering and i had the steering mod from e-speed, and i have used the carbon link and mounted the link behind behind the pivots. The balls were then mounted in the normal position.

I then had lots of lock and more steering as the throw is increased. THen only down side is have i altered the ackerman or anything else on the steering?

If my discreption is rubbish, will post some pics later on.

Some advice if i havedone something really drastic to the front end but i did seem to improve the front end, and increased the lock i was after on a tight indoor track.

Cheers

I believe yes the e speed part will change the ackerman too.

I've been using the vega option as it allows you to change the ackerman too as well as increase steering lock. That's just my findings and I'm sure one of the "proper" Kyosho boys will provide better info.

I'm trying the e-speed part this weekend after I found it was fitted to a car I purchased for spares :thumbsup:
