I think i saw somewhere in a previous topic about problems when peps have lowered there car -60mm and the camber went way out, but i can't seem to find it! :x

Anyway just wondered if peps could give me any useful info on this topic as im about to lower my gsi -60mm all round and wondered if i came across this problem, how i could sort it!! :wink:

Will my camber be totally Fuked :?: and Is there a camber adjustment kit :?:

Thanks peps :lol:

not good then! :x

there must be a way around it, im sure there was somebody on this forum that said about drilling new holes in the top mount!

A -60mm drop has got to be done 8) :lol: :twisted:

i've got this camber prob on my 60mm drop.

I've heard u can re-drill the holes at the top of the arch where the strut is but that sounds dogdy to me.

i think i read the article on www.nova-land.co.uk.

There must be a way of doing it properly.

(What kit u use? I got Gmax.)

G-max m8!

I dont want to drill holes either sounds very dodgy and could be a big mistake!
:cry:

eccentric top mounts!!!

the camber mod is not dodgy, its actually quite a good FREE (cheap then) fix to the problem, just need to make sure everyhting is measured properly!

Excentric top mounts (1 or 2mm should do)
