Camber Plates

[Sam Strano]

I run -2.2 (can get more if I needed it) and I get great wear... *shrug*

 

[ArizonaGT]

Exactly. The same can be had with the J&M units.

Wisdom.

I appreciate all the responses, but now I'm a bit confused. How much negative camber do I need to be running on a daily driver that sees no track time? It appears I definitely need to take that into consideration when purchasing my camber plates.

Unless you're interested in messing with camber and or caster from time to time, i think reccomending camber plates isnt the way to go. The bearings wear faster than factory mounts. For someone whos gonna set it and forget it, im starting to lean towards camber bolts. Id be curious to hear other opinions.

FWIW I have ground control coilovers and cc plates on my porsche 944. I wouldnt buy anything else simply due to their service and support. J&M has nice support too, but GC seems like theyre been at it alot longer.

I've heard to many stories concerning the bad things about camber bolts. They way my car is currently set-up I really don't need camber bolts. Since I'm going to replace my struts, I wanted to upgrade the strut mounts and move away from the potential "clunk" and other issues associated with the factory strut mount. I figured "while I'm at it and its a part, I might as well" fix known defects and allow for future upgrades.

I'd suggest the Steeda HD strut mounts. With my Steeda Competition springs plus weight from the SC they let me run almost - 2 degrees camber but I could also run the stock setting if I wanted.

I'd suggest the Steeda HD strut mounts.

+1 given a preference, I would go with the Steeda HD camber/caster plates for a daily driver that goes to the road course often.

 

[Sam Strano]

+3, that's why I carry so many in stock... I use them, a lot.

 

[03fridge]

Well, it looks like I will using the Steeda HD mount. Sam, I'll be placing an order with you this weekend.

Sam, can I run your adjustable rear sway bar with the Saleen 35MM front bar for a time, or do I need to use both of your adjustable bars together? I'd like to take out a bit of the oversteer if that's possible.

 

[Sam Strano]

You can run my rear bar with your front... But running the set gives you the maximum adjustability because you then have 3 adjustments in front, instead of just one--and teamed with the 3 in the rear gives you a lot more flexibility. with the side benefit that my front bar is a lot, lot lighter too.

I went with the j&m , they were $100 cheaper than m&m and provided more adjustability.
