Euro coins or washers, undo your steering rack boot from the inside and pull it down the tie-rod towards your wheel! then get a 30mm spanner is it or some size like that and undo your tie-rod, it bolts into your rack.. theres a locking collar on it with 4 tabs you have to bend back out of the way first!

Then once you've the tie rod out, place a max of 6mm's worth of coins/washers then clean the threads and use thread lock when putting the tie rod back in the rack.. then shorted your arms by undoing the 19mm nut i think it is that connects your tie rod to your track rod end, shorten them by 6mm or what ever amount of coins/washers you put in! You'll see what i mean!

Repeat on the other side!

Then get a grinder to the lock-stops on your wishbones, its where your knuckle or trackrod end comes around on full lock and hits your wishbone.. grind it down to allow for your 'extra lock' but leave enough there to allow for movement up and down, as your knuckle will move under load, i.e hitting a bump etc!!

Did this on Petes R32 over the weekend and the different was unreal, considering it was near impossible to park the car the lock was so bad! we used more than 6mm of washers though as its a track car
