FL: camber: -1.5 Toe: -.04
FR Camber: -1.5 Toe: -.08


With Cusco A Arms, SPC camber arms and toe bolts and Volk LE37Ts 19" settings are:

FL Camber: -1.6 Toe: -.05
FR Camber: -1.3 Toe: -.05


Is it Just me or did you not get too much adjustment with the Cusco arms? I have -2.1 camer up front and i'm looking for a set of front arms that will bring it back closer to spec but it seems like the Cusco's don't offer much adjustment.

 

-2.1 camber up front is not exactly excessive at all

I just redid my alignment today, trying to get a bit better turn in response, and a bit better exit feel.

Here is what I have now...I am only posting befores for the fronts, since we took the rears apart last night to adjust rideheight and put the rear arms in.
Current setup: Cusco Zero2's, Cusco front a arms, Kinetix rear traction arms and camber arms, Cusco sways, 245/40/18 front, 275/40/18 rear.

Front
Before Camber (L)-1.33 (R) -1.45
Before Caster (L)8.35 (R)8.80
Before Toe (L)0.00 (R)0.01

Camber(L) -2.10 (R)-1.98
Caster (L) 8.56 degrees (R) 8.85 degrees
Toe (out)(L) .03 (R) .04

Cross Camber -0.12
Cross Caster -0.27
Total Toe 0.07
Set back ? 0.37 - anyone have any clue what this is?

Rear:

Camber (L)-1.56 (R)-1.58
Toe (L) -.01 (R) -.01

On paper looks great....only thing is, the car drifts to the right now, and steering wheel is slightly cocked - back on the rack tomorrow. But, it turns in great and is very stable in the turns. I'll check tire pressure in the AM

 

-2.1 is not excessive? I though min was -1.3

 

not excessive at all and will greatly improve turn in - toe wears the tires alot more than camber does

 

Yep, to ramp this platform up, some won't be comfortable with the camber numbers they need to run, especially in the G community I think. Though I don't think they're looking for that type of setup in general.

 

I'd def agree - people see the number and tend to "freak out", when fact its a relatively minor change relative to stock, and pays big dividends

 

So with my -2.1 front and -1.3 rear camber, do you think that I would just be wasting $400 on buying the front A-arms for the minimal adjustment that I will get from it?

 

Your at -2.1 AFTER the Cusco arm install!? Question I have to know, how low is your car set? And what were the before numbers?

 

I think he saying his car is at -2.1 before the a arm install

I was just going to ask what the rideheight was too

My car is exactly 25 inches from the center of the fender line to the ground. That gave a "natural" camber of -2.1 degrees pre a arm install. Post a arm install I can get down to -1.3 on the a arms if I want

 

I'm def. getting these arms soon, I'm dropped about 2in so tire wear is crazy. I cearly am getting these to improve tire wear but I don't want stock settings. For the events I attend I like a little oversteer so i still want streetable wear has anyone found the sweet spot? (adam)

 

Yea, im -2.1 BEFORE a-arm install. I don't exactly know how low my car is set. Hopefully I can get it down to -1.3 with these Cusco arms.

 

I went with EVO A-arms; the Tech that aligned my car said I had enough adjustment to go to +.5. The car was sitting at -1.9 and -1.7--I have Tein Basics. ...had the camber adjusted to -.3. ..."feathering" stopped also.

 

Why can't the final FL and FR atlease be both the same at -1.6? Thanks

 

because he has lowering springs only, which very typically lower one side slightly more than the other - virtually every car is like this - plus he has fitted aftermarket wheels and tires which alter the final alignment settings

 

Damn you make me sound all f@cked up Yes what he said is correct. Lowering springs are never even side to side. I'm switching to some Swift springs and Tokico D Specs soon which should raise the car a bit and hopefully make it more even.

 

Then will it make it precisely even with coilovers?

 

part of the benefit with a coilover is you can make rideheight side to side completely even.

 

i was curious about the stock vs 19/9.5 and 19/10.5 camber and toes settings

 

What bushings come with these? Are they urethane? Spherical? Rubber?

 

i think they come wit urethane bushings
