I thought you were done?
Stock camber is not adjustable and is anywhere from 0-1 degree, most of the time very near 0. For handling purposes in our sports car, camber is good. For a daily driver, 1.3-2.0 is a good starting point. Ideally you want more camber in the front than the rear. Your rear probably has 1.5 or so from lowering, while the front is less. You should also get a side skirt to hide that scratch I see in your pic on the right side of the car. And a front lip to match. |

Poor guy wanted to tell us he's basically done with his "build"... and we're being assholes and telling him to buy more parts the mod bug is addictive.

None of your mods are "major" and they are all "unneeded". Swarb already clearly told you what it will do and why you should do it. It is a relatively cheap and easy thing that will improve the car. Why only do part of the job and call it good enough when for a little more you can finish it and call it done right?

http://www.phasteksport.com/2013-FRS...mber-81305.htm Basically, when you lowered the car, the camber will be off (because the OEM camber bolt is "fixed") therefore the suspension geometry will be "off". The fix is to put a different bolt in there, so as the camber can be adjusted a bit. You're almost "done" ...... a couple of bolts and an alignment and you're good to go ..... humfrz |

Heh, like all has already said. You're never ever "finished" with a build.
10k+ now and I thought I was done for good after all the exterior tS parts... Now I'm going to have to do some more under the hood and then work my way inside the interior... You're NEVER finished.

This is a good review: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25001 For your DD, I'd suggest you just ask the alignment shop to put the front and rear within spec ..... maybe the camber a little on the negative side of the range. humfrz |
