Spent yesterday fixing up my front Koni's to meet the new 1mm allowance. Welded in some material and reground the hole. Went from 2.5 degrees to 2.1 degrees of negative camber... :(
Yes, this.
Honestly, the fact that we are discussing this on an open forum is my main motivator for making sure I am within the new 1mm allowance. I have already admitted that I shaved mine to the previously accepted 2mm. Would I protest somebody for it....no...but I have seen stranger...
Does anybody have location measurements for the oem strut holes? My stockers were already butchered up. I am planning on adding material back to my konis and regrinding to the 1mm allowance.
Sad that we have to go to these extremes over 1mm......
Well, it wouldn't take a Mustang expert.....There are National Level M3 and Camaro drivers that lurk these forums. See my post above. I will be buying new struts before Nats.

FYI: I accessed the service manual on motorcraft.com for my 2016 GT. It does in fact show that you can enlarge to strut hole, BUT it clearly states 1mm each direction. That is different from the 2015 manual that Dick posted that showed 1-2mm. It also clearly states to use 2 service bolts...
Fellow F streeters, I have asked before elsewhere, but want to try here as well. Has anybody had any luck finding a rear brake pad that will pair okay with the oem PP front pads? I want to keep running the oem front pads (I'm cheap) but would like to shift the braking balance rearward a bit...
Nice driving Steve! I am jealous that you got to run some laps already. Hopefully we'll see you guys at more of our events this year. I finally got mine all ready to go last weekend with an oil change, sway bar changes and an alignment check. Can't wait to get to an event.

I use my GTPP for autocross. I've pretty happy with the oem pafs but want to shift the balance towards the rear. Trying to get the car to rotate more while trail braking. What do you guys recommend?
Is there a rear pad I could use in conjunction with the oem fronts to achieve this?
I am selling my FS legal 18 inch setup. They worked great for really tight courses or really fast courses (crows for example). Honestly I just suck at shifting and it distracts me. If anyone is interested in trying them at a greatly reduced price or looking for some lightweight track wheels...
