My layman understanding of camber for performance driving is that it increases the contact patch during cornering. So my guess would be having more camber in the rear (relative to the front) would lead to more understeer, you want to limit it to improve rotation.

This matters more for the front than the rear. The front's gain positive camber on turn in, so more negative camber results in more of a front contact patch while cornering.

The rear camber doesn't change too much under load, so anywhere from 0.0 to -2.0 is ideal depending on personal preference.

I am sure there are some grip set ups that purposely run more negative camber in rear than that, but I can't recall any off the top of my head. Usually drifters and stance guys run a lot of it for the benefit of fitment and less contact patch so the wheels spin easier.

Good news. Talked to the mailman and we figured out he delivered it to the wrong house. Got it from the other street and all is good

I get the same noise too. I hear popping every time I let off the gas or upshift..😉

But seriously, is it more likely to make the noise when you turn one way or the other? Going over bumps? Does it sound like it's coming from the inside of the car or out?

When did the off topic chat thread turn into cartalk?

Check for any loose bolts/nuts, specifically the sway bar end links.

When the main board turns to shit and when the technical boards are too daunting if you haven't done every single suggested thing in a thread that's vaguely similar that's 3 years old.

I get this weird roaring sound whenever i put in the key and rotate it clockwise. It only ever happens when I rotate it clockwise.

Screw Oreo, I'm keeping my blob emojis. I'd use 5.0 emoji if I could.

My LG G3 (yes I know it's old) never updated Android systems even once, yet my bro's G3 had at least one OTA update, and we got our phones the same day from the same place.

Manually trying to update it doesn't work as it just says it's up to date.
