    Too be fair though, you have alot of lock and your roll centres probably aint that bad because its like a double wishbone setup. might be better to leave it :)

    Because the Geomasters are made for S14 suspension, he modified them to fit in the Z32 double wishbone setup. It's all in his build thread on here :)

    i thought u had some serious lock when we was there on nye @ teeside, btw whats its like on the steering with all them mods, does it self center nicely when you let go of the wheel or do you have to give it a nudge.

    Nice work btw

    I think the amount of lock people are getting is bordering rediculous.. I'm all for increasing lock to a certain extent, but think people are just going way over board with it, especially the e30 kits and wisefab kits etc..
    It's all to take out driver error and detracts from the skill needed to skid fast.


    I mean fuck off.. Just fuck off with your stupid lock.. Wtf is wrong with you?
