With spring around the corner it feels time to list my 3UP 4537 Knuckles and LCAs for sale.

I bought these when I was living in Japan and drifting and if you had an R33, these were the only option. Luckily they also happen to be an awesome option. They are crafted by the boss of the 3UP Workshop and are so well made that to look at them you wouldn't even know they were modified.

The Garage, 3UP is a small one located in Saitama, Japan, but they are passionate about their Nissans and have even run a car in D1 Street legal (see pics)

The name 4537 comes from the fact that they have been modified to turn the steering angle 45 deg to the right, 37 to the left, which is a crucial few degrees over standard, and more than enough to make a big difference when drifting. I went from spinning half the time at Nikko's first corner to being able to hold it and some dignity. Someone with proper drifting skills would be able to really play around with the car.

When swapping out knuckles you also need the supporting hardware, and that's where the Lower Control Arms come in. They have had thee stopper removed and a stronger plate set back on the arm welded in its place. Its also been boxed for extra rigidity.

The other things you need (not included with these parts) are longer tierods to account for the extended reach of the steering. 3UP recommend fitting the Ikeya Formula parts for an s14 Silvia as being a direct fit for this, but there would be a variety of solutions to this.

You may also need offset tension rods to account for the wheels turning further than standard, these are also commonly available.

This kit has been designed by 3UP not to bind and to provide greater lock for drifters. Its a high quality kit and the best part is, by being a direct fit you can keep your standard parts and fit them back anytime you want.

Items are located in Melbourne and I would prefer local pick up, but will send at buyers expense. They are, in fact, boxed up and ready to go and come with instructions in Japanese and shop stickers. Good value at $550 and these parts are rare-as; don't expect to see any others coming for sale for a long time. Best to email - [email protected] as Im not always on SAU. Thanks.

Couldn't say right now as Id have to work out a fair split of knuckles Vs LCA. LCAs would be the much cheaper of the 2 though, comparatively. PM me if seriously considering

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
