Depends on how much clearance you have with your tyres from corner of your guard on .5 lock. Usually 3-4 degrees positive castor is all that is necessary for a good setup and that would also include adjustable camber. The majority of 1600's that I've seen fowl the guards with 3.5 degrees without full adjustability in the front end. Also, most ppl run their 1600's too low in the front in the first place, and then go looking for setup because they don't handle - sorry, but they don't work like that. Nissan actually make 3 radius rods for the 1600 and there's lucky to be 12m difference in length between the long ones (0 degrees) and the short ones (~3 degrees). I have a set of long radius rods around here somewhere so I could measure them, the short ones are on my 1600, so I guess I can crawl under and measure them also if you want the lengths.
