Camber Bolts

[phunkynova]

Camber adjustment bolts.
Anyone using or used them on a Nova ?.
Are they any good ?.
Are they strong are they up to use in motorsport ?.

Eibach make them so there version should be up to the job as no doubt they are TUV approved.

I've got them but not yet fitted. They are made by Eibach as stated so imagine they should be fine.

Exactly the same as the bolts on my mk1 golf fitted by vw, you certainly find out when it not lined up properly as incorrect camber eats tyres quickly.

Got mine second hand for £6 delivered on gaybay I am a tight fecker lol

I got a pair from Elitedirect or whatever its called. Its a massive tyre, wheel, suspension, exhaust place on the A1306 near Rainham in Essex. They were £20 to buy, £20 to fit and a fecking fortune to adjust when they do there super duper wheel alignment! They did help the handling and the tyre wear, but I wish I had another more trusted and cheaper garage who could adjust them.
Ive had them fitted for years on various different engined novas and they've mostly been fine. Although I had a hunch that they were knocked out of alignment a couple of times when Ive hit a pot hole whilst loading the suspension up through a hard corner.
Mine were bought before the Eibach ones were available, but from the pictures of them Ive seen, Im pretty sure they are all from the same factory.

Thanks for the comments. I've just got a set and wanted to see if anyone had any problems with them as they look a bit flimsily compared to the normal bolts which are fitted.

waste of time imo, i can't see how they would stay in shape if you hit a pot hole, they're ok if you put them on max negative camber but not the other way round

[BRoadGhost]

Not seen the ones on ebay.

What I will say is a set from someone like Leda on properly machined struts for me, are essential to reduce negative camber.

Loads on ebay under "corsa camber bolts"

Currently a set at 99p ending in two days.

I can't see an eccentric bolt being a better way than having eccentric nuts; at least once the struts have been machined a standard HT bolt goes straight through, rather than stress running along the cam edges.
