It seems to me the rear is still a tad bit taller than the front(the side skirt is still a little slanted), so I might change it the setting later on after it sets. With that setting, theres still a finger width wheel gap. But the overall height is nice.
Will do. After work.

I'd be very interested since i have the TE37's in the same offset and am worried the tires will rub if I lower the car...

Front was adjusted into spec without any camber kit. Toe is still off tho, without the A-arm kit.

Rear fender was rolled. I dont know if it would rub without rolling, but I didnt bother try, so we just rolled it before the install.

Phatmitzu? In the front your tow should not be difficult.. a fat 1/16"
Did you mean to say Camber?
I run neg 1.3 camber in the front, and it was very good on the Valencia Canyon run.
To get rear tow correct with just rear camber rods ( no tow rods ) I had to settle for neg 2.0 - Until tow rod proto-types are fabricated.. I'm set for canyon car now - will adjust to Touring - Daily driver as new parts are made...
This using Hotchkis Spring/sways. Sways Front Middle 0 Rear Soft
with Koni's
But man I like the look you have created - Sano !!
Like both Jeff's said yeah - Stoptech ! Many Jeff's here
Say what did you do with your "Take Off's" - PM me or
amy@amycroft.com
Sorry to miss Eric's Going Away - Got involved... Then dis-engaged
Cheers Amy
