shocking to think people that own cars and have done described modifications would actually know more than someone with a keyboard isn't it.

I think if you have a stripped out rear then it can make it too light hence said lockings.

I had a lot of audio and sound deadening and it never locked once. I wouldn't say it braked any better overall, but with V6 brakes up front it vastly helped brake peddle feel and brought the bite point further up. But even when I took the audio out it still never locked, and that was on track too (I removed brake bias spring, but IIRC that was an MOT failure point too).

I mainly done mine for looks as I cannot stand the look of drums.
