    If you just have std lock, why don't you try just putting in some washers on the steering rack? I have standard hubs with washers on my car and they make a huge difference. The biggest problem is the steering going over center though, so moving the rack forward or buying offset rack spacers is a must if you want to use all that extra lock without any unwanted dramas.
    I don't have any mods to stop my steering going over center and it is annoying, but I will be moving my rack forward before I go drifting again as it is a pain when the car gets stuck on full lock.

    Ok, does your steering go over center? I was going to buy the Driftworks hubs because they have the roll centre correction, but they do seem expensive and my car isn't very powerful, so I am a little concerned about putting them on the back too.
