High angle of Steering and Ackerman ratio is the vital of the RWD drift car. Well performed YD-2 brings out “front driven well baranced new drift style”.

Improved steering response and front trace has achieved by new aluminum steering section and suspension mount.

A new designed aluminum shock tower and narrow chassis delivers more effective traction for drifting

Innovative design of 4-gear transmissions for drift car.. Prevents the left/right imbalance due to the torque of the motor, by installing the motor in horizontal position and lead the neutral steering characteristics. Meanwhile, the rear traction will be increased on the throttle, so possible to escape when cornering stability and acceleration forces to withdraw. High dust-proof sealed gearbox is also attractive.
In addition, rear transmission gear is a lightweight type by using a plastic bevel gear. Contributes to the improved throttle response and performance.

Aluminum shock cylinders are the super low friction shock which is with Kashima coating to reduce the maximum frictional resistance with piston. The largest capacity in on-road car category, 11.2mm big bore cylinder has adopted and enable to absorb even small vibration due to run with a resin tire in a drift run from the road surface, then possible to get a maximum grip. 
Height adjust system possible to change the car height by rotate the spring tensioner and suitable for various length 
on springs. Of course the setting that is most suitable for various road surfaces and run situation in total is provided by the change of shock oil and the piston to get a damping force with finely adjusted.

Longer stroke rear suspension arm is now available as standard bundled.By increasing the down-stroke amount, possible to pull out more rear roll aggressively and enhances traction and more stability.

Setting variation has greatly expanded, increasing damper mounting holes for both front and rear shock tower.Also the variety to roll Center and Camber settings are possible due to the increased upper arm holes on rear shock tower, so suits for any kind of customers driving styles. 
The aluminum rear suspension mount sets on more toe-less according to the demand of the expert driver. Very smooth turning out for corner exit but also actively push the car up to the top speed range.
