I would be surprised if the TCK car is suing the stock arms. They likely upgraded to the M3 arms that have stiffer bushings as well as a different geometry that will give you more camber.

Nope. They told me directly that control arms were stock.

Then why not ask them directly why you're not getting more camber?

WOW I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT LOL

I am friends with Erik and TC and they do not know either, TC told me that he gets barely -2 degrees on his 128 in Santa Barbara same suspension. I do not know Pete, he must be the fella in Cali location, not Ohio.

It boils down to, 128 and 135 must have something different in the front suspension.....somewhere...

Pete is no longer with TCK. You have to ask for Eric or TC himself.

I don't ever remember TC use the M3 front arms on all his cars, maybe one or two of them is all.
