I would recommend going through an exporter in Japan to buy these (I personally use Jessestreeter.com) but if you want to know the drop downs I will explain. Top box is Basic or SPL, SPL just means the welds are ground back to look neater (this costs more). Second choice is what colour you want, green or black, green costs a little more. Third option is choice whether you are sending stock knuckles to be modified or whether you want them to supply you with ones to modify. Of course it costs more to have them supply the knuckle so you can tell which is which by the price change when you select each option. If you cannot read this level of Japanese I think you will need to use an exporter company though otherwise it will be to hard to arrange. Hope this helps someone :)
These guys are probably paying Sammit to be on his channel as promo but it doesn’t even feel like that or forced. The content is good and this channel is becoming a hidden gem.
I always prefer OEM parts over 3rd party parts, and this is an economical approach to creating angle with the normal steering rack position. OEM parts can be more expensive, but this is due to the time spend developing and testing for quality. Contemporary OEMs are huge with respect to global scale, and must develop considerable investments in supply-chain infrastructure and development in order to keep their parts cost effective. This means making parts that are reliable across the globe, and easily sourced across the globe.
He's english is advance and good but I really wish you add subtitles in the future for some of us, I don't understand japanese but I'm learning as I go.
Hey Sam awesome vid as always love how you take us to places like this, have learnt so much watching your vids, I saw on the website it states for track use only, is that just a disclaimer as I'm wanting street/drift do you think these knuckles could be used in this way and if so any chance for a link to get the ones where we don't have to trade in cheers from Goldie Australia :)
It's just a disclaimer - use at your own risk basically. Any modified knuckle from Japan will say the same as cut knuckles will not pass their 2 yearly roadworthy inspection. If you want to buy these I recommend using a company like Jesse Streeter to help organise but the option for them to supply the knuckle is on their website.
I believe he recommended to stick with stock lca, rod and rack ends, max out your camber and use a straight style tension rod unless youre running a 265 in the front then youll need a curved one for wheel clearance
I noticed sammit in America acts American and in Japan he acts really Australian, so does that mean in Australia he acts Japanese ? Car culture influence is real 👌
I really like Ryusei, hes so chill and you can tell he really knows what he is talking about
Right? such a cool guy!
jptop.buzz
also pretty handsome :o Looking forward to that car build!
he has cool hair
His English is so good !
Honestly he did very well. I took 2 years of spanish in school and no way i could speak on that level.
Dude speaks incredibly good english for japanese.
Damn an idol to drifter he’s so fkn cool
Such a cool video, it would be really nice to see the build progress of the S15.
You guys communicate really well.
I wanna see Ryusei again in a future video :) hes so chill
The man! so stoked we got them
22:03 The drift cave
Daily Upload... I like that 😎
This was cool we need more content like this please. Great video keep it up Sam.
Ryusei is a cool character
Ryusei is such a cool guy, & his English is good too
I love inside documentary with local japanese people. very good stuffs. Keep it up Sam.
I do the same thing here in New Zealand. Never had one break.
A33 cefiro/maxima rack ends 40-50mm extra. If you have an s13 you need to go s14-15 tie rods or even a33 to make it easier at the parts shop.
Do you run into clearance issues with the stock tension rod, or the inner fender wall? Also do you extend the LCA ?
@@danielBMXisFUN you will run into issues if you use a weak offset or wide rim. I usually go 25mm lca and offset tension arm .
I'd imagine it's in the tray to keep the earth for the welder and still be able to move the knuckle around not to collect sparks.
Looks like very good quality fabrication work
Please update us on his build Sammit, seems like its going to be an amazing drift set up. Cant wait to own my own S15 here in Cali one day lol
Ryusei as a Car Idol
Dang

Great video, good to see how these awesome products are made, more like this please, and follow his build 🔥
Very cool dude. Thanks for your shop tour 🔰
definitely copping knuckles from them, and following the other s chassis recommendations
As always bro good content but can't wait to see some evo built soon

its cool seeing that nice snap-on tool box being used in japan.
SAMMIT IS THE BEST
I've been wondering what they do to their knuckles for the longest, thanks for posting this sammit!!!!
dmax has a bunch of good parts that are really difficult/impossible to get in the states, like the oe knuckle remakes, oe front cross member etc.
Man them guys have some skills
Nice job
I already plan on running the Reverse Knuckle for my JZX100 Chaser. Gotta get it while I'm still in Japan

@10:44. MAN MY HAIR! lol. I was waiting. Thank you for Nice content. 👍👍
Great content sammit
Dude that was massive thanks sammit ✌️✌️
Sweet! Lots of good info!
I’ve got knuckles from Julian from animal style on my s13, which are pretty much naokis B-knuckle and OMG they handle suuuuuuper good.
Wicked content sam
“What goes into the process of making the knuckles?” “I usually go to this track this track and this track” hahaha
Pretty sure you should pre heat cast before welding check up on it
upload more, i love to watch your videos!!!!
This guy really looks like an anime character
Switching outro, nice 👍👍
14:38 the dentist giving me a checkup
Hi Sammit loved it.💯👍
Ryusei needs to make his own TH-cam channel !
Sam wasn't you an Australian Idol back in your high school days? Wait a minute, I looked it up! You are a auto shop class idle.
The only masked channel on TH-cam
That's exactly how I imagined, how Japanese drift knuckles are made ! 😁👍

Keep it up Sammy boi 😁
Great English buddy.. good work
Hey awesome video
Can you please list what he recommends for parts to go with the knuckles ?
I couldn’t quite catch what the names were
I believe he recommended to stick with stock lca, rod and rack ends, max out your camber and use a straight style tension rod unless youre running a 265 in the front then youll need a curved one for wheel clearance
grate video it cool to see..
So cool to see someone fabricating their own parts for their D1 car, you don’t see that very often
It would be good so see some videos of his driving to have a look of what his knuckles look like in action
Thanks for the insights!
Damn i wish he hired someone to make a youtube for them, such a cool dude!
nice one Sam...
Ryusei will be a hit with the paddock girls
you should make your own knuckles when your shop get set up
Love this!
ive been following Ryusei0121 for a long time. i bet he tears it up this year in d1
Are his basic knuckles only available for s14/s15 applications. Inquiring for s13.
And the big thing is... it is not just about cutting and welding, but repeatable.
I need an s chassis even more now
How much degree angle is it capable of? Cant understand boostar website its in japanese
shorten knuckle compare with rcck v2 gk tech. how about it man?
Whats the difference in the Basic and SPL versions they make?
What advice do you have for people who are driving twin plate clutches for the first time?
Support comment from Guam 🇬🇺
me likes the new outro!
Great office (man cave?)
Their website order option says it doesnt ship to Australia.
Can u request for r33 n done the testing on ur car
tell ryusei we need rx7 fc/fd knuckles!
Very Cool
I noticed sammit in America acts American and in Japan he acts really Australian, so does that mean in Australia he acts Japanese ? Car culture influence is real 👌
Epic insiders video. Try to get his knuckles in pink.
hey sam i think u should buy a 180sx when u get the money you know maybe a drift build
Hello hello Sammit noti squad
Why do you drop the knuckle over just shortening it? Ackerman?
U just gave this guys business secrets away just for a days content
You're stupid!
Ryusei is fucking awesome!!! Caught him hacking a grit @11:28 hahaha 😎😎
Not gona lie, i closed my eyes when he was welding.
That exhaust he has laying on the floor under his car 😲
cool shop
Get one of those knuckles for your s13
This ryusei guy is heaps cool hey
