Tramlining & Excessive Torque Steer.

Mass production! I will be keen...
Well done Eddy!

[Eddy]

How much were the inserts Eddy? Can you get more?

Hoyhoy.
OK people, we have talked a little bit along these lines. Will get back to ya's.
Its not just the camber pins, you need longer bolts (hard ones), 30mm slim line open ender which will have to be made as well. Also a 30mm socket for ajusting.
Rough figures will be around 140 - 170 dollars with longer bolts & the spanner including GST, no socket, plus fitting which can be straight forward, but may need to ream the holes out if damaged.
This price might scare a few off, hey, but its cheap for what it does.
This engineer chap is from the old school, not on line & hard to get to answer the Ph. So I'm not sure on how to go about it as yet.
How about I edit the opening post for those interested or start a new thread for a list of possiables,,,,, what ya's think.

Thanks Eddy! Please add me in!

Fantastic.

Would also be interested in understanding how hard it is to get camber on the front (now that you've done all the hard work).

What sort of labor time do you think would be involved? An hour-ish? If it is going to be a long install, the price of the components ends up being less relevant to me as I have to pay a mechanic more to make the change than the cost of the parts.

Thanks Eddy, really good engineering and so greatful to you for sharing your findings.

Well theres a lot involved, cutting of strut tower top, narrow springs (story on its own) to be able to fit in the small strut tower, top end of the sway bar links has to be changed also, because it also hits on the 3 degree setting. Camber plates were round in shape, but have to be changed to a diamond shape. A lot of minor hand filing in the top part as well. Not much room in these little things.
In hours don't know, weeks = heaps

Want to swap? You can do it all again!!!

Thats a healthy list of mods, guess I won't be getting my camber any time soon

[insanekiwi]

I will be keen, just keep us up todate.

Your engineer chap should make it, or you should make it available for online sale. I mean market is huge!

Eddy, QR sprints in September, would be tops to see the car in full flight. Would also be nice to compare a heavily modded one to a stocker, and also learn some new tricks.

[Desmo]

Just curious has anyone tried the Kmac camber plates, i was looking at trying these..

PN:#141516J $370 - pair

[Eddy]

Hoyhoy.

Please take note to post No2, me started a list of those interested at the rough price suggested in a later post, but will confirm before hand.

[Desmo]

Ok im interested.

[Preen59]

I could do them for $155... Just kidding.

Fair price. I should have said something earlier. Could of got in on a good deal here!

If it all falls over with your mate, let me know. I'd be interested in making them. However if all goes ahead, that's cool too. I'm not interested in undercutting anyone.

I was thinking about trying a set out for the Caddy (Mk5 strut tops). Heard good things, however i never got around to getting some.

[Ben_GTI]

Yea I'd be interested. Cheers.

Hoyhoy.

Need a little more time to sort things out with testing, adjusting & costing, so hang in there people, please.
