well i've had this fc for maybe a month now and i can't help but to notice that the rear wheels have negative camber. and the driver side seems to have more negative camber than the passangerside. how can i fix this? is this normal on fc's? i like having oversteer and i feel that this is making it hard to do so. btw i have a 87 TII with out the auto suspension stuff.



thanks

YEah, mine was like that. I replaced my springs and shocks and that fixed it. I got a rear camber adjuster thing from mazdatrix too, so now I have less camber.

I have this from K2RD -









I have a pair of these from Mazdatrix -











Get these and you'll be able to COMPLETELY adjust the camber of both rear wheels independently. Plus they get rid of any rubber mushiness that the stock pieces have.

carfull how much camber you take out, Jims and I have developed a bang, when we slam 2nd due to the lesser clearence between the driveshaft and the underbody.



it's only the pad hitting, but still doesn't sound good
