New photo posted of the front... come on... it's not that bad! lol

[fourtailpipes]

holy FFFFF

i'll be the first to say it... it's not just low, it's TOO low.

i have a large pile of mulch in my driveway i need moved. can you help?

[infinitekidM2C]

looks good bogart; the front camber is a bit excessive though i think

[fourtailpipes]

haha to me, the fact that you got a lot of camber out of it is one of the redeeming qualities of having a suspension this low!

I would if I lived near... work?

I agree, it is too low... it will be raised once I got to put my snow tires on... for now I'm enjoying the *holy FFFFFF that's low* looks I get as I drive by.

Thanks! -3* isn't that much... it just looks bad because I'm in dire need of spacers and studs... which are in the mail.

The front is way to low. It just doesn't look right. Sorry. If you like it is all that matters though.

[vividracing]

Looks good. Hurry up and at get the wheels on the car!

It'll be nice to see something different, as long as they're not CSL style you're good!

after look at it again. not sure why its cambered in the front it just make it look worse

the lower you go in the front, the more camber you gain. 3 degrees is actually not a bad number. it may be a bit much for the street, but i'd rather have too much than not enough.

the rear gets affected more. the problem is he actually went ahead and dialed in -3

+1. With a 7.5" wheel (I believe it's 7.5), there really is no reason.

If it's sitting on the track, fine.

If it's sitting in a parking lot, lol, no bueno.

true, but the rear's not very low. OP are your plates adjusted all the way in?

it looks bad right now, because I'm on the stock wheels with no spacers... but that is changing soon!

3 degrees is not much at all, and not really that bad for the street. I haven't seen any signs of bad tire wear, and it feels great around corners. I also have 1/4 inch of toe-out in front, and that also helps on corner entry, but hasn't been an issue at all on the highway either.

What do you mean, the rear gets affected more? I don't see that as a problem? The nice thing about camber plates is that I can change it if I want to pretty easily.

Yeah, front stock 7.5" wheels... but that is changing very soon! There are many reasons to add a lot of camber to the front... mainly because the suspension geometry on the front (macpherson strut) does not change camber angle as the car rolls in a turn and the suspension on the loaded side compresses. In the rear we don't need to add that much camber, because we have multi-link suspension that changes camber angle as the suspension compresses, unless you are trying to fit a 10 inch or wider wheel with the correct sized tire (JZ I know you have pushed the limits on this already without any camber using a stretched tire).

Yeah, maxed out in the negative direction. Unfortunately, the rear is as low as it can go with the kw v2's.

what i meant was the rear will naturally camber out when you lower it like so...





but besides the point. I don't understand the reasoning behind -3 dialed in on purpose on the fronts?

Yeah, that is correct. I like to take turns really fast and the camber gives me a lot more grip and less understeer.

I don't understand your reasoning behind running tires too small on rims with the wrong fitment.
