mod your lower control arms
hey guy, im pretty sure someone has already covered this topic but i cant seem to find the thread, please forgive me.
Car - ae86
motor - 4age
use - drifting
problem - i have s13 brake setup, isc coilovers, adjustable castor rod, unknown lca, ae86 rack end and ra40 tie rod end. At full lock the tie rod end hits the lca and from my observation one side gets more lock the the other.
occurs/started when - only at full lock
personal situation - the setup works and all but im after more lock

yeah, maybe we should break tech articles into sub catergories. engine suspension, body ect ect. makes it easier to find things

yeah it's not a bad idea and I can suggest it. I will be making all tech question titles as descriptive as possible from here on though which will make it simpler.

ive noticed something interesting about my s13 gear.
its perfectly fine going forwards with full lock.
but if i go full lock in reverse, at a bit of speed, say like pulling out of a car pack and continuing around in 360deg or so. if i go forward again and try to straighten up it feels like it binds a bit, its quite tight for the first 1/8 of the turn, then its fine.
i have a feeling this might have something to do with the castor i run (about 3/4 of what is possible id say) could just be a characteristic of the setup though.

I have that on my ermm.. trike. On that it's because I made it so I can steer till the steering arm is pretty much almost a straight line to the steering rod, going backwards lets it go inline and it binds for a moment before going back. Have you got modified lower control arms?

nope just standard s13 ones.
im gonna ask a stupid question, but what is considered "modified" control arms in this context. adjustable length?
i intend on putting in some R31 arms soon, so cool wheels will actually fit without rearranging my front guards. i hear they are a direct replacement to s13 except you need to re weld the steering arm stoppers.
