The Mantis Kit for BMW is the most relevant angle kit in the drift community today. Here is why:

Mega Mantis Angle Kit for BMW E46

Adjustability: The innovative lower control arm/lollipop design allows for fine-tuning of caster while on the car. This is a unique feature not found in other kits.

Strength: Using the strongest alloy steel available, the Mega Mantis kit is engineered to perform under intense racing conditions.

- Angle, 70 degrees depending on steering rack setup

- Ackermann, adjustable Ackermann

- Roll Center, optimizes handling by adding 40mm of roll center correction

- Bump Steer, minimizes bump steer while drifting by perfecting the tie rod pickup position

- Caster, offset caster built into the knuckles for optimal adjustment force

- Camber, optimized camber adjustable in the -3 to -6 range

- Track Width, 50–75mm wider per side for a stable, high-clearance front end (front over-fenders recommended)

- Suspension Travel, long travel range, achieving full suspension travel from full lock to full lock at all times with grip

- Joints, chromoly Heim joints, spherical bearings with self-lubricating nylon races, easily replaceable p>

- Weight Reduction, lightweight and strong design due to compact knuckle design, alloy steel arms with scissor-frame structure, using 7075 aluminum where possible


- E46 Mild: 26 mm, wider than stock, providing a milder tread width while maintaining high clearance for the extra angle provided by the kit.

E46 Mega: 53 mm wider per side, providing a stable, high-clearance front end with a fully adjustable tie rod setup.

The E46 with optional E36 knuckles has advantages! - E36 knuckles are much better than E46 knuckles. The reasons are a stronger mounting design, a lighter mounting design, and simpler installation. The mounting design makes the knuckles cheaper to produce and allows for longer shocks (50mm longer for increased stroke). You can adjust camber at the knuckle and the top of the coilover. As long as you have E36 front coilovers, it bolts directly onto the E46 chassis. This is what all professional drivers using the E46 are doing, including drivers seen in PRO FD like Adam LZ, Dylan Hughes, and Jonathan Hurst.

*Coilovers are required to run this kit*

This kit includes everything needed for installation

- 2 Lower control arms

- 2 Knuckles

- Ackermann plates

- 2 Inner and outer tie rods

- All bearings and hardware necessary for installation

For custom colors, please email your order number and desired color.

- For off-road/track use only -


Before Ordering

〇Regarding Import Consumption Tax
At Shaftoya Shopping Site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges other than the total amount paid at checkout.

Confirmation of Compatibility
All of our product database is based on North American vehicles (USDM), so please check whether they can be installed on Japanese vehicles (JDM) before ordering. (If you are unsure whether a listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will look into it for you.)
If you place an order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer name, and vehicle model in the tabs on our homepage, it does not necessarily mean they are compatible with Japanese-model vehicles without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.

○Regarding Delivery
Shipping costs are paid at the time of payment. Shipping estimates are calculated automatically when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, the actual shipping cost may occasionally differ significantly from the amount automatically calculated. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.

All products are generally shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic Japanese delivery, international delivery takes about 7–14 days, so please allow plenty of time for your order. If you are in a hurry, please contact us to check the lead time in advance. All products are transported via air freight. They will not be shipped by sea freight.

○Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
All products we handle are designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection System," and we cannot provide strength calculation documents for Japanese inspection purposes. Therefore, all parts are sold for the purpose of "use on circuits, private property, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.

○Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. Since all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be shipping damage to packaging boxes or the products themselves. Please understand that we will only provide returns, refunds, or replacement exchanges if you contact us within 7 days of receipt regarding products with shipping damage, defective products, or products different from your order. Furthermore, for products sold through us, we will handle warranty-related matters "only through us." Please note that we do not handle matters through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
