The Art of Knuckle Adjustment: A Deep Dive into the World of S-Chassis Tuning

As I sat down with my friend, who had recently completed a thorough tune-up on their S-chassis car, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe at the level of attention to detail that went into every aspect of the build. One of the key components that caught my eye was the knuckle system, which seemed to be a perfect blend of form and function. "I've been doing this for years," my friend explained, "and I can tell you that getting the geometry right is crucial. It's not just about tightening up the bolts, but also about understanding the intricacies of how the steering works."

My friend took me on a tour of their garage, where they showed me the tools and parts used to adjust the knuckles. They explained that the key to success lay in understanding the relationship between the upper and lower control arms, as well as the way the Ackermann geometry played out. "It's not rocket science," my friend reassured me, "but it does take a bit of patience and experimentation." I watched in amazement as they carefully tightened and adjusted each bolt, making sure that every movement was smooth and seamless.

One of the most impressive things about my friend's setup was the level of customization that went into every aspect. They had even welded their own knuckles from scratch, working closely with a local tuner to get everything just right. "It's all about finding that sweet spot," they explained, "where everything feels perfect and responsive." I couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for my friend's dedication to the craft.

As we continued to chat, I asked my friend about their experience working with various brands and tuners. They spoke glowingly of Yashio Factory, a company that had worked closely with them on several projects. "They're like family," they said, "always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything is just right." My friend also mentioned Oka-Chan's work on their S-chassis build, which had been nothing short of phenomenal. "He's a master," they declared, "with a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of what makes a car truly special."

As I looked around the garage, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement about the possibilities that lay ahead. My friend was already planning their next project, which involved building a custom transmission bracket. They had sourced it from Drift Hq, a company that specialized in creating bespoke parts for S-chassis cars. "It's not just about throwing some metal together," they explained, "but also about understanding the intricacies of how everything works together." I watched in awe as they carefully measured and assembled the bracket, making sure every piece fit perfectly.

One of the most impressive things about this build was the level of attention to detail that went into every aspect. From the clear Gk cover on their rear diffuser to the custom driveshaft, it was clear that my friend had spent countless hours researching and testing each component. They even included a special feature - a slip yoke built into the driveshaft itself - which they explained would help with power delivery. "It's all about finding that perfect balance," they said, "where everything feels smooth and responsive."

As we continued to work on the build, my friend mentioned something that caught my attention - the possibility of swapping out their transmission for a different brand. They spoke highly of Mazrix, a company that had worked with them on several projects in the past. "They're like the Rolls-Royce of S-chassis tuners," they said, "with a level of quality and attention to detail that's hard to beat." However, my friend also mentioned that Mazrix hadn't been able to create custom dual guides for their engine, which was a bit of a disappointment.

Despite this setback, my friend remained optimistic about the future. They were working closely with Mazrix to get everything sorted out, and they were confident that the results would be well worth the wait. As I watched them work, I couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for their dedication to the craft. It was clear that building a S-chassis car was not just about throwing some parts together - it was an art form that required patience, attention to detail, and a deep understanding of what makes a car truly special.

The Clutch Masters Twin Disc: A Game-Changer for S-Chassis Cars

As my friend continued to work on their build, they mentioned something that caught my eye - the clutch. Specifically, they were working with Clutch Masters Twin Disc, a company that had built a reputation for creating high-performance clutches for street cars. "It's not just about raw power," my friend explained, "but also about feel and responsiveness." They spoke highly of the Clutch Masters Twin Disc, which had impressed them with its ability to handle high levels of torque while still providing a smooth and seamless driving experience.

One of the most impressive things about this build was the level of customization that went into every aspect. From the clear Gk cover on their rear diffuser to the custom driveshaft, it was clear that my friend had spent countless hours researching and testing each component.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enwelcome to today's video guys i am super excited we're putting the s15 together got a lot of new parts a lot of preparation has gone into getting to this point so now it's a fun part where we get to put all the shiny new parts on maybe get the engine in maybe get it started maybe go do something maybe a little bit mike you better pull me in the mud stopping was nothing it took us like 17 tries to do this i started with i literally got ran over he pulled me into the freaking the the wheel what are you doing big skateboard company now lots of decks big deck guy he's got a huge deck collection yeah he's got a huge snack bag all right back to the shop i gotta go to masworks you don't need to film me anymore just don't hit the brakes i'll kill you should we okay moving on so last weekend we had our drop with the brand new track hats as well as the lean custom pins i just wanted to thank you guys extra i know you guys have been asking us for the track hats forever and it was sick to see so many orders coming fast uh we did stock up since it takes us so long to get them so we do still have quite a bit left over in addition to a handful of these pins and even though we just pretty much got back the guys have already cranked out 90 of the orders and they're able to accomplish that with the help of ship station you guys have heard me talk about ship station before in addition to us using them for years they have been sponsoring these videos showing us love back and if you guys have an online store and you need to get orders out fast shipstation is the simplest way to manage import and ship your orders out for the least amount of money possible you can import orders from pretty much any sales channel and you can take advantage of their deeply discounted rates and ship with any courier you can automate shipping tasks and the best thing is you can spend a lot less time shipping and a lot more time growing your business and i know that if you guys aren't already familiar shipstation don't use it on a daily basis it is going to blow your mind if you want to try it out and see what i'm talking about you can get a 60-day free trial all you got to do is go to shipstation.com forward slash adam lz that's two months of free no hassle stress free shipping at shipstation.com forward slash adam lz i'm gonna give ship station a massive thank you for sponsoring this video they're awesome you guys are gonna love it now you can go and make ship happen yo look at this ice homies over at koru works made me one of their beautiful rebuilt racks if you aren't familiar with car works it's kind of like a boutique drift shop they make a lot of really cool sr parts s chassis stuff a lot of stuff that we're gonna be using an engine that i haven't showed you guys yet but this rack is the first one that i've had them rebuild they modify it for drifting so it's got slightly different internals in addition to being a fresh rebuild with the powder coated candy purple stick it comes with am lines for the crossovers and then am fittings so that way we just need to get some am lines for the power steering setup and then everything can be brand new nice minty and easy to service things gonna look so cool in the subframe so so i will be using a mishimoto thermostatic sandwich plate for uh some oil cooler lines i didn't run an oil cooler forever on my sr and it seemed okay like never got too mad at me but always a good idea to run one i definitely probably cook the oil in a few times i could tell when i was doing oil changes that it kind of lost its viscosity so we're gonna do an oil cooler on this thing i don't know if we'll have time to do it before the first event but at least i'll have this all set up you can obviously orient it whichever way works best with your lines but i think for me i'm gonna end up probably running like 45s down out of here so i'm just going to orient it vertically for now and i can always change it after the fact so i believe i talked about it before but i'm going to be using a 72 v-band housing for the g25 setup uh reason being quick spool small displacement v-band always preferred just because of the ease of serviceability you don't have to worry about turbo gaskets and you can clock it however you need i think i already explained but this rtec manifold which we saw under fish cube uh comes with all different firings so whichever turbo you're running you let us know we can give you the firing for your turbo so it can suit different types of v-band flanges instead of being stuck to one kind of a neat feature um but anyway i'm popping this turbo on now i'm gonna fit the wastegate and then i'm gonna finally put the lines on for good instead of putting them on taking them off put them on taking them off since this engine is going in i guess in the same video i was gonna say tomorrow but y'all finna see it right now i most completely forgot to mention uh you guys might have already seen this on my social media but huge huge huge news something that has been in the works for over six months now it has been my dream to be able to stock garrett turbos and be able to sell them to you guys advise you on turbo setups and garrett is super exclusive in that they only allow a very few number of places to be a distributor for the garrett brand so you guys know i've been using garrett turbos pretty much since the day i started drifting not only am i a huge fan of the garrett products but i've had them pretty much on all my builds and have learned a lot of kind of different turbo sizing what certain setups feel like i've been able to compare them and they have interest in me to become a garrett distributor now this was actually all going on before the drift hq deal even happened but now of course drift hq is going to take over at that position and they will be the garrett distributor so what that means not only can we sell turbo to you guys it won't be drop shipped we will be carrying a massive amount of inventory here in florida there isn't another southeast distributor so if you're buying a turbo in the area you'll get it faster if you order from us and we're able to sell to shops that have a business certificate as any other distributor could i got a lot of homies with shops i know a lot of you guys are constantly needing turbos all our stock is already live on the drift hq site but if you have any questions or you need help getting a turbo setup figured out for you i now can finally sell turbos to you guys officially and i'm super stoked happy boy more go fast parts turbosmart hypergate i feel like i've told you guys five million times the best flowing wastegate on the market also my favorite design super easy to change the springs you don't have those annoying banjo fittings that always get loose to make your car over boost and blow up insert clip from chaser here look i called it the only problem is there's a little crush washer that i guarantee is missing now of us on the side of the road yeah bro that's it and then the funny thing is too we were talking about that like the last question is the same thing happened to sean yeah the homies from down under have been supporting the builds for a while now never had an issue the way that these manifolds are designed if you look at the orientation over on this side it's pretty easy if you want to recirculate the wastegate into the downpipe i kind of like the rotary really raspy sound of an external wastegate as long as you have a top mount manifold sr but if there's a bottom mount setup i might veer on having a re-circuit just to be a little bit less rowdy who knows maybe i'll do that eventually just to see what it sounds like but i'll probably just dump it to atmosphere for now so i'm assuming i would probably the downpipe is coming down like this probably oriented something like this and then kind of follow the trail of the downpipe but plenty of options and the cool thing about these gates as well you can pivot the bottom half 360 degrees to line the ports up exactly where you want to make sure you can get the setup perfect run the lines how you need i might end up doing normal vacuum lines on this but we started using am lines on the chaser just for a little more safety and high heat environments but at the same time i kind of like vacuum months because then if something goes wrong you don't need to remake and lines on the side of the highway we've all been there done that you know all right guys a little information for you on the coilovers we're going to be using in this build you guys know me ain't none but bcs on this build we are doing bc's ds series drift spec if you aren't familiar with the ds series i know i try to explain it in every video it's about like a 200 up charge and what it does is it changes the damper to a digressive damper in layman's terms what that would translate to you is that you get a little bit more low speed damping so it feels like on turn in or on like initial feedback a little bit stiffer while kind of tapering off up top if you hit a bump it's not super bouncy so generally speaking with the drift spec the spring rate will be a little bit softer but it'll still feel the same as if you have the standard brs with a stiffer spring without the disadvantage of having a bumpy ride when you hit bumps and stuff so i recommend it for daily driver for a track car pretty much anyone getting a set of bc's the ds is probably one of the biggest bangs for the buck sometimes too with the drift spec coilovers you'll have a little bit longer shock anticipating and not super slammed ride height but the beauty of it is you can pretty much custom tailor the spring rates your ride height whatever you need to do through a custom order with bc um obviously you guys know we can help you with that so i always love when you guys send love our way and order clothes to us it's cool helping people spec out ride kits for their cars so we'll pop this boy in let's see what we're gonna run for knuckles on this to a certain extent i am trying to keep it as simple as possible on this build these may look like average cut and shortened knuckles i'll tell you these are not your average knuckles so these are brand new oem s15 knuckles that okay well did for me himself when i drove the ashio factory cars over in japan i was blown away just by how good the steering feel was how good the angle felt how the ackermann felt like everything about it felt right it was simple there's not a lot that you can really mess up with a cut and shortened knuckle but getting the geometry right lowering the pickup point adjusting things there's definitely a secret formula to getting it right okechand's og in the s chassis world they don't call him the king of the s chassis for no reason and he literally welded these himself for me and sam was telling me that he went as crazy as he possibly could with these because he wanted them to be as perfect as possible and i'm super appreciative of everything that oka-chan and sammit have done for me through yashio factory through the other brands that work with them i'm so running his knuckles on the car i just i do kind of wish i feel like it would be cool to paint them pink they still look good fun fact for uh those of you with an s chassis if you ever need to get a little more camber out of it and you don't have any adjustment on your top hat left uh there's usually a little bit like maybe a degree of camber that you can get out of pivoting this and people have been known to kind of ovalize the holes on their coilover to get a little bit more camber out of it that way too so kind of got another care package from the homeless mike over at new jdm look at how good this looks he did a little restoration on a cast for me with a clear gk cover you can see how nice it looks inside this we're shining super pumped it's always helping us out helping us take the builds to the next level looks so good let's see meat johan's whipping up a bracket for the transmission the homies over at driveshaft pro yet again came through all the way from california and got next day drive shaft made and delivered it's not that simple for this setup either because the fact that you have a flange on both sides wow this is making a mess look at that so they actually have to put a slip yoke like built in to the drive shaft itself uh fun fact we do sell these on drift hq we can help you custom order a shaft for your setup and assist in that process but i'm trying to build out kind of like a catalog of all the different measurements and stuff so this what i hope will be a common swap if it works really well with the 335i trains now we have the data so if you order one you don't even need to take measurements you could be proactive and you can order one because we have the measurements for my car it's all ready to go we're good we're going to get an internet we can leave it out because we have to still put the clutch on we're waiting on one piece for the clutch so this is unfortunately still a mock-up phase i'm starting to figure out the routing for the gk tech uh hydro line kit it's pretty cool comes labeled i've had to piece together my own kit before and it's a pain trying to figure out what fittings to use and everything so it's all cohesive kit and i already explained why i did the uh like stock brake so i could have a hand brake along with the wheel wood set up cool thing about these calipers too is that they have bleeders on both sides so technically speaking they're interchangeable between left and right there's no oh i put the wrong caliper on the wrong side we have new rotors they just haven't come in yet so just kind of mocking everything up and figuring it all out in place since it's already on the left while you on mix the trans bracket i'm gonna try to follow the stock handbrake slimes nice working on the car where everything's clean and nice and new before the engine goes back in the car i don't know if i explained this before but we were waiting on one last piece for the clutch so it was just kind of mock-up phase uh we're doing a clutch masters twin disc i've run them into quite a few cars i've had really good luck with them it's a very nice like street friendly clutch that still has good feel and can handle quite a bit of power johann zapping that on unfortunately mazrix wasn't able to do the dual guides on this engine before it needed to get tuned so i'm probably just gonna do that down the road so i'm just putting the stock stuff back in cleaning it and i'll put cams in this one finish up the top end hopefully right around the same time that it's going in the car when you said moving onwelcome to today's video guys i am super excited we're putting the s15 together got a lot of new parts a lot of preparation has gone into getting to this point so now it's a fun part where we get to put all the shiny new parts on maybe get the engine in maybe get it started maybe go do something maybe a little bit mike you better pull me in the mud stopping was nothing it took us like 17 tries to do this i started with i literally got ran over he pulled me into the freaking the the wheel what are you doing big skateboard company now lots of decks big deck guy he's got a huge deck collection

phase uh we're doing a clutch masters twin disc i've run them into quite a few cars i've had really good luck with them it's a very nice like street friendly clutch that still has good feel and can handle quite a bit of power johann zapping that on unfortunately mazrix wasn't able to do the dual guides on this engine before it needed to get tuned so i'm probably just gonna do that down the road so i'm just putting the stock stuff back in cleaning it and i'll put cams in this one finish up the top end hopefully right around the same time that it's going in the car when you said moving on\n"
