Vorschlag has camber plates available. Others are using the Whiteline Com-C mounts instead of camber plates. The plates uses on the older Imprezas are compatible with the car so take your pick.

The front plates from the 93-07 Imprezas should fit the front of the BRZ without an issue. We just installed the Whiteline Comp C upper mounts and set them to give max caster and camber, and we are loving it so far. Really seems to help with steering input and feel, and the added camber is always nice as well

Thanks,
Rick

are you sure about 93-2001 (GC/GF) Imprezas? The bolt holes on the strut tower are placed in a different "clock" orientation to 2002-07(GD/GG). So a camber plate designed for a GC, though it physically fits, will have the camber "slot" oriented differently if used on a GD/GG.

Nice! I like that they are already positioned for max caster. They also look thick enough that the plate doesn't bend over time. I don't know how many Cusco, TEIN and HKS camber plates I've seen that are no longer adjustable because the plate has bent over time and you can no longer move the strut back and forth.

yeah sorry, I should have been more specific. With the Whiteline mounts you would change the orientation to get the camber/caster gains/loss, but on normal slotted camber plates, the 02-07 plates would be the ones to go with.

Thanks,
