hey, has anyone been able to get crazy neg camber in the front and 0 camber in the rear?
i have seen stuff like -4 degrees or more in the front of 240's and hachi's but fc's dont seem to beable to be that adjustable (the exception is the gp auto fc but idk if that fc is even real or photochopped). i figure you can always use http://www.ingallseng.com/parts/81250.htm as well as turn the thingy at the top of the strut to get another 1/2 a degree for a total of -2.5 degrees but thats still not that much as far as adjustment goes. anyone got any tricks with out cutting and welding?
as for the rear, i hear you run out of room (the diff hits the chassie) before you can get 0 camber, is this true? (im gonna try to take my rear thingy off and cut/tap and reweld it all back together and hopefully beable to raise the rear end to get 0 or as close to 0 camber as possible). anyone get 0 camber in the rear with out cutting and rewelding stuff back together?

GP Sports used to produce a G4 suspension system which came with two sets of lower shock brackets. This allowed for the option of a street setup or a crazy cambered setup for drift. I haven't seen it in their new catalogue. I have a set coming in for our S13 this week. I am inquiring about the old setup.
We will be manufacturing lower mounts for all popular twin perched systems very shortly.

Front camber will be more than enough with adjustable upper plates. The rear camber can be adjusted with the Rod next to the diff. I have the Border Pillow ball adjustable one but the rear will not go to 0 camber with just that if you car is real low. I have found that I can drift better and longer with a little more camber on the rear as opposed to closer to 0. Also if I use too much camber on the front it Unders at certain speeds.
