Not exactly sure about that but I'm lowered on coils, not slammed, just lowered and I still have -1.7 camber up front no tire wear but looks funny. After taking my wheel off and looking at the "fully adjusted a arm" IF it was adjusted out anymore I'd have to worry about the BIG adjustable ball joint hitting the EDGE of the strut tower. My front a arm still bottoms out on certain bumps but slot of people do. I think the adjustability problem lies in how big the ball joint is, not how much movement they offer. Don't cheap out on suspension.

Really? I read the suspension 101 sticky and it said depending on the use and aggressiveness of the set up it didnt really matter? I didnt want to go with the metal bushings because it said they can have some noise. I HATE squeaks and creaks so I went with rubber.....

Did you "oval out" the sub frame with a drill/dremel for the toe bolts?

No joke I tried to get my hands on one of those Eurospec pumpkin cases but no luck. I was going to have one shipped over from Dubai then I realized how insanely dumb that was.

Nope, kept it at 100%, didn't even think of adjusting it. I hope I don't regret it.


...And Fedex just dropped off some more goodies in order for me to install all this stuff.



I couldn't fit my current jack under the car at it's much lower new ride height (which will only get lower once the weight from the motor, differential, exhaust. etc. are added back to the car).
