Hey guys, just wondering if I'm going to need a camber kit for a 1 inch drop on lowering springs? I'm I going to be way out of spec?

There is no way to really answer that. It all depends on how OCD you are about your alignment. On a 1" drop the fronts isnt gonna be affected much, but the rears will gain some natural camber from lowering. Some people have gotten away without camber kits and some people needed them. For example after lowering you could get -1.6 and -2.0 in the rear if that bothers you and you want it to be even you will need rear control arms.

From an email discussion with CSG, "At a 1 inch drop with [coilovers], you'll have a natural rear camber of approxmately -2.1 degrees; this is totally acceptable and will not need rear lower control arms." Whereas the extra negative camber in the front is only going to be useful, unless for some weird reason you want zero front camber (which is the manufacturer's spec btw). See also https://www.ft86motorsports.com/wheelitfit/ for some estimates on how much natural camber you'll get with different amounts of drop. |

What's the best place to reference for torque specs on bolts/parts that are 2017+ only? e.g. Performance Package Brembo brakes, red intake manifold, etc. |

I do however agree that the front camber changes due to lowering the car will be minimal. -0.3º for a 1" drop, according to that calculator. |

Sorry if this has been asked already...
How do you set height on the RCE Tarmac 2? To me it looks like height is set by spring preload. Is there a way to set the ride height independent of preload? Thanks! |

For reference, our T2s have more than 1.5 inches more total front stroke than a BC ER coilover. That's huge. - Andrew |
