Extra Lock Q? How much

Was hitting full lock alot out in Mondello on Sunday which led to a few spins. It would nice to have a bit more.

How much extra does the washers/ 1 euros coins give you on the 180sx? Is it much? I've found a few old threads but they fail to mention how much.

I don't have the cash to get the hubs modified & I wouldn't know were to start with modifying them myself.

Cheers Lads

Wanted to know this too!

Same was happening me too, just hadn't enough lock on some of the corners

Put about 3 washers in each side......! 4 if your feeling brave....! And cut your lock stops....! U will notice the difference.....!

if you dont have spacers on front don't put in four as it will start rubbing, 3is bang on but if you have spacers go for it jus once your getting couple of threads back into the rack if you know i mean...euro coin is exactly 2mm so if you use 3coins = 6mm. so you need to adjust your rack ends that amount to even her out...pm if you'v any hassel mate

Cheers lads, I have 235's on the front, will this affect it, should I be dropping the width aswell, maybe 205/215's?

ya the washers are a good job and cheap way to do it but then ya run into more problems like over center.which can be a pain in the hole




PS if you do go with it.keep an eye on the the thread left on the tie rod going back into the rack.can be left with very little thread and will be dangerous.could end crashing it over cutting cost
