Ground Control Camber Plates

FOR SALE: $300 including shipping

I purchased these Ground Control camber plates in Oct 2015 from a good friend who originally bought them in Dec 2014. I actually bought them before I purchased my BRZ recently. I won't be putting coilovers on the car anytime soon so I need a different setup. These won't work with stock shocks unless you have a coilover conversion kit, which Ground Control also sells.

If you look closely at the pictures, you'll notice they have a very handy modification with a thru bolt / set screw setup that keeps the bearing from suddenly moving when loosened and doing an alignment. This allows you to fine tune the camber setting easily.

Will this work with a KW V3 coilover? And does this let you adjust caster too?

These were used on a car with Racecomp Tarmac 2 coilovers, which are based on the KW Clubsport coilover. I'm not an expert on these different fitments but "I think" they will work on your KW shocks. When you order these from Ground Control you select KW shock and 2.5" spring. Assuming you have 2.5" springs on your KW's, I don't see why they won't. It wouldn't hurt to call KW to make sure.

You can adjust camber and caster.

See the picture below and check your spring size.

You'd need the 60 mm perch, which you could buy from GC. They adjust caster and camber.

I don't know. Best bet is to contact the vendor of your shocks to confirm. Reference the spring perch measurement in the picture I posted and note that 2.25" and 60mm spring perches can also be acquired from Ground Control.
