front camber help
I'm looking to get -1.5 front camber on my FRS. What's the easiest way to achieve that? Can I just use the OEM bolts or do I need camber bolts? Also, are you supposed to use the top or bottom holes? I've read a lot of conflicting info and it's getting confusing.

14mm oem crash bolt goes in the upper hole. 16mm eccentric camber bolt (spc, whiteline, etc) goes in the upper hole. 14mm eccentric camber bolt goes in the lower hole.
I run spc in the lower hole and crash bolt in the upper and get max -2.5 front. Not sure if one or the other alone gets 1.5.

16MM eccentric in the upper alone was not enough for my tech to go past -1.2, but your experience may vary. The guy's a wizard and wasn't being lazy- he showed me on their rig the max he could push it. I tried going for -1.5

I got about -1.5 on each side with just whiteline bolts in the upper holes, slightly slotting the upper holes got me to -2.

-1.5 with OEM crash bolts in the upper holes here.
To get much beyond that you need to slot the holes or use camber bolts in both holes. |
