The BMW E46 M3 has over 60 degrees of usable lock. While this kit provides over 60 degrees of lock, it is also designed and tested to optimize many other parameters that make a difference in handling and performance. Installation is very straightforward. Simply set your preferred toe and enjoy. All parts of the lock kit are available as spare parts.

The rear features upper and lower links, which can help improve the car's traction (the upper arm replaces the spring carrier arm). We also offer trailing arm bushings.

High roll center
Wisefab suspension kits raise the front roll center even on lowered cars, increasing roll stiffness and allowing for maximum lock by removing the front anti-roll bar (sway bar). -
Steering geometry correction (Ackermann)
Normally, the inside wheel has a greater angle than the outside wheel in a turn. In drifting, this means a loss of speed and grip, so we have compensated for this to achieve the best performance. -
Good camber control even at high steering angles
At high steering angles, the front wheels get positive camber, which is not beneficial. This reduces front grip and causes a transition of the contact patch from the inner edge to the outer edge during a turn or flip. While this cannot be eliminated, our geometry has reduced it as much as possible. -
Steering jack control
During drifting, as the steering angle increases, the same geometry can result in more jacking, which can be problematic. We have monitored this and modified the geometry to ensure no handling issues occur. -
Predictable self-alignment control
With certain suspension geometries, when the steering angle is high, the steering wheel may lock at the end, and the driver might need to exert some force to flip the steering wheel to the opposite side. We understand the cause and have minimized, if not eliminated, it.

Before Ordering
〇 Regarding Import Taxes
At the Shaftoya shopping site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred during importation on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇 Fitment Confirmation
All product databases are based on North American vehicles (USDM), so please confirm compatibility with Japanese vehicles (JDM) before ordering. (Please feel free to contact us if you are unsure if a listed product fits your vehicle. Our support team will investigate for you.)
If you order without confirming fitment, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if products are sorted by selecting the year, manufacturer, and vehicle model in the tabs on our top page, it does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese model vehicles without modification.
All products are translated into Japanese using translation software. There may be confusing expressions, so please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.
○ Regarding Shipping
Shipping costs are paid at the time of settlement. An estimate of shipping costs is automatically calculated when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, there may occasionally be a significant discrepancy between the automatically calculated shipping amount and the actual cost. In such cases, we will contact you individually via email.
All products are generally shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic shipping in Japan, international shipping takes about 7 to 14 days, so please order with time to spare. If you are in a hurry, please contact us to confirm the delivery date in advance. Note that all products are transported by air. They are not shipped by sea.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
All products handled by our company are basically designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please understand that they do not comply with the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection System" at all, and we cannot issue strength calculation documents for such purposes. Therefore, all parts are sold for the purpose of "use on circuits, private land, 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 the packaging or the product. For products with shipping damage, defective products, or products different from your order, we will provide returns, refunds, or replacements only if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Please understand this. Note that for products sold through us, warranty support will be provided "only through our company." Please note that we do not handle support through other companies or agencies located within Japan.
