the offset of the 53's is the about equal to current jacos.

i'm staring at his setup now and i think it's correct. the .75mm fr (front) hex spacer will combine with the 1.5mm of screw block spacers to yield maybe 189mm in the front. you can fit about 2.75mm/side of width spacers (either at the hex or the bulkhead) in the front before the car spills over 190 with foams. he's just short of that, at 2.25/side.

the rear of the car doesn't use any screw block spacers (except at the inverted front set to get correct toe), but his sheet instructs us to use enough axle shims to get to 189. i estimate this to be around 2mm/side at the rear hexes.

hope this helps.

note* if you need more steering with this particular setup, i would suggest dropping the front oil in small steps, doing only one shock at a time for the purposes of comparison.
