I need some camber.

markslc1 · 11-15-2022, 12:40 PM

After a few autocross days I can clearly see it taking a toll on my outside tread. What is an effective way of adding some camber while retaining the stock suspension? I know Dinan had some fixed plates for the 128 but they don't seem to work on the 1m. Any other budget friendly options besides coilovers?

Did you pull your strut mount locating pins yet?

I haven't yet. I did a that on my 128 and added fixed plates for a total of -2.3. How much should I get with the pins alone?

I ordered the vorshlag plates but they can't seem to deliver due to parts shortages. Any other options with similar quality?

I'm pretty sure Vorshlag is top quality because their design includes axial bearing, not just the spherical bearing like most others. That said, your application probably determines which to choose.

Turner is probably decent quality, but race coilovers only

Ground Control quality is not bad, but "street" application may separate at the bushing-bearing under high loads (I've seen some pics on forums of this, YMMV)

It might be worth checking with Harold @ HPA to see if he can help source--
