who here has actually fixed your rear camber

who here has fixed your rear camber?? because the camber is actually not starting to make its effect. for the front iam thinking about those nopi camber bolts, any one had any experience with those?? they claim that it fixes about 1.75 deg of camber. as for the rears i was looking at pdm racing and saw these and i wonder if they will fix my camber well enough to somewhat properly eat up my tires.





Rear 1989-1994 S13 OEM Nissan Upper Control arm with SPF1638K poly bushings installed.

how much camber will that fix?

its only 300 for the arms. and i would think of you not wanting to do that to your arms. you might break them at a very bad time. check the bolts to the Toe arm and the Control arm (going away from the brakes) there are adjustments on those bolts that you can pull in toe/camber.

you can slot your rear upper arms to give you a little adjustability...no safe if yu slot too much

the eccentric bushings will do some justice.....buy those if you are on a tight budget

if you look at the image that peice does nothing for camber.
a camber bushing has a offcenter shank in the middle.

i just did a rite up of the bushing change over.

The yellow set is from pdm as well.



Have you guys tried to fix your camber with an alignment before getting these parts?

How much are your cars dropped?

It matters how much camber you have to fix. But you will not know that without an alignment. Drop the car. Get it aligned. Find out how much you can fix. Then resolve the problems.
