Hi all
I've a pair of Banchwerks drop plates for use on Mk1, Mk2 and Mk3s. I've got their -2.5 degree camber ones. Comes with all associated high-tensile bolts. They're new and unused and have been sitting around for more than half a year in the original box - I never got around to fitting them onto my Mk3. These provide a 3" drop. If you're already slammed on coilovers, fitting these will allow you to run the same height but with an additional 3" of suspension travel on the rears, providing a more comfortable ride. These cambered drop plates provide that stance and extra clearance at the wheel arch too. Essentially these act as drop plates and camber shims in one.
Below are some pics of what they look like and how they mount up. They go between the torsion beam and stub axle, and will work with disc brakes and drum brakes.
These plates achieve camber by a slight curve in their profile. This pic is their -5 degree plate mounted up.
This is what I have, the -2.5 degree.
This allows them to run a constant thickness throughout the plate. They're approximate 10mm thick. They act as a spacer but because of the extra camber, you gain a bit of wheel-to-fender clearance (some trigonometry calculations confirmed this).
Many US dubbers have run these without problems. A search on google will get you a lot of reviews.
These are $225USD new, before shipping from the US. I'd like $220 for my pair. Pick-up at Merrylands or I can ship for extra.
