While this kit is not technically for an IS-F, I thought I would share the test fitting of our new modular suspension/steering platform that could work with the IS-F if anyone was interested. This happens to have a different hub configuration, thus why the brakes are not mounted. It's always fun pushing the envelope and exploring the possibilities
We take it to the limit so we can help you find what you need for your daily driver or track competition vehicle. It's all relative.

I personally think it would make the steering extremely heavy. The largest we have fit without fender modifications is a 265. changing the spindle geometry does not help this clearance a great deal, so you would need to do something to make a 295 sweep clean. That would be clearing the fender liners and pushing the wheel off the firewall more. We can position the wheel pretty mcuh anywhere we need to, but it will require the body modifications to make it function.
What size/brand tires are you running now? Based on how most UHP tires are patterned, you might even lose grip with a wider tire because of the contact patch distribution. If you are track-dedicated, an Rcomp tire in a 255 or 265 is going to give you way more than you need in my opinion, but I am happy to discuss the possibilities. All that extra weight would not be fun to steer for a long lapping day.
Mike

would this be a remedy for people expecting tire rubbing? I don't know if that's what I'm experiencing right now but when I turn my steering wheel right, I get a little resistance at a specific angle and then the resistance goes away after I turn more and comes back every time I get back to that specific angle... I literally have no idea what the problem is but this product is sparking my interest!

I think I have experienced what you are talking about. Since the rack is electronic, it could be a certain load range on the rack. This kit is more of an extreme geometry correction kit designed for either increasing steering angle, reducing upper arm interference when lowering, changing steering ratio to reduce driver fatigue etc. It's completely custom, but not really suggested for road-going cars, more for track prepped, caged vehicles.

Thank you so much for your reply, do you recommend any products to remedy my issue? It's been bothering me as it's the one thing stopping my car from giving me a perfect driving experience.

Is this a new issue or did it start happening? There are a few things that can cause a sticky area of steering, including encoder feedback on the control at the rack itself. It would take some troubleshooting to figure out the problem.

Killer IS-F Steering Angle
, planning on posting any drift vids on the ISF?
