Raceseng | Billet Aluminum Caster Camber Plates

Just wanted to give you guys a heads up as to what is going on inside Raceseng. We are developing a true independent caster and camber adjustment plate. These plates will mount under the strut tower, have plenty of caster/camber adjustment and minimum stack height! The key to our design is to make the caster and camber adjustment independent of each other. Below are some shots of our product design, development and prototyping in process!

Very nice, it's about time these things hit the market. What dampers do you planning on making them compatible for?

Excellent question!

If these will be compatible with the Koni's, you will most certainly have at least one customer!

Damn that's purdy! Love the hardware as well.

How do these adjust caster? I can't tell just from the mounting holes, but is it just that the camber slot is off-axis so you get more caster at the same time, or is there a way to turn it that I'm not seeing?

The camber plate works like normal, but if you see where it mounts to the strut tower it's slotted vertically to adjust caster independently.

I just bought a set of "temporary coilover" , ideally I want to go with KW v3, and hopefully this will complete the set !

Keep us updated !
