i read the guide on it and it says drill the holes 7mm towards the wing, does that mean the edge of the new hole needs to be 7mm from the old or do u put the centre of the drill on the 7mm mark. Any help appreciated..

i dont think it really matters that much as long as you do both sides the same.

did mine had no probs with MOT
you dont needto move the centre hole!!!!! only the two small holes!
this is what id recomend..

suspension drop / camber ajustment

0mm / 0mm
30mm / 4mm
45mm / 5mm
60mm / 7mm

this is only what i recomend not saying these will be perfect for all cars!

loosen 2*13mm nuts, jack car up a bit, make a mark where ur gonna file to, file the holes, lower car, pull strut across to outside and hold it there while u tighten the 2 nuts up tight.

then off to get tracking done!

if your happy with the result then might be worth welding 2 metal washers in place but not really needed

sorry been on this board ages and this is the 1st ive seen of a camber mod, what are the benefits of it? i assume its just a case of shifting it by the set distance against the lowered amount? also if its against a gsi what would be the adjustment for a 1.2 nova lowered 60mm?

cheers

does this just stop tire wear or does it make the car handle better :|
