i have a 1989 n/a supra, and there's play in the front wheels, i haven't really asked/searched how to get rid of it, but i should probably ask asap and get it fixed, and while i'm at it, i'm also wondering, is there a way to increase the supra's noobish steering angle? i just noticed when i took a pic of my car today that it's pretty bad, probably another reason the supra can't drift :icon_evil

steering angle? i dont understand. you mean the ratio?
by the way if you wanna check your ball joints, jack it up so the wheels are off the ground and shake it at 9 and 3 and 6 and 12...if theres play, you got some bad balls.

Or completely disassemble the rack and cut an extra notch in it for that much more angle.
Apex-i did that to their D1 FD

yes but secound gen's lock to lock is less then the 3rd gen rx7 it's one and half turn less then the mk3 supra

suppost to be all find out soon eghough


as in cutting new notch in the rack it's not that easy you have to fill in the some of the rack end and then cut in 2 new notch's shave down the pump bump stops and ect

the best way to have rack is have the gear and rack in the center of the streering rack i have sean thes eon audi's befor and there turns are = on both sides
