What is the Differnce Between the Various Camber Plates??

[cjgt350]

I am not sure what the big deal is. Have one alignment done while the shop allows you to make notes or paint/marker lines of the marks on the camber plates (most have alignment degree marks on top of the plate as pictured)at 0* and -1.5* for GT350 running MPSS while the R spec is more towards -2.0*. Once you take the weight load off the strut they adjust very easily by hand.

What are the stock specs anyway? Does anybody have them?

I've been wondering the same. I suppose a call to FP is in my future.

No one's worried about how to adjust the camber with the plates, it's the rest of the alignment that we're talking about.

You missed my point....That is what I described. Identify the desired camber alignment marks/specs on the camber plates themselves and adjust as needed for the street/track.

exactly. Which is why I was wondering. now its alignment before and after a track day, or is there a sort of middle ground where you can improve tire wear on track, but also not toast them driving around town.

Personally, I'm still running the alignment I had when I went to Atlanta Motorsports Park! Lots of camber, little toe. No tire wear issues I'm concerned about.

I got your point, my assumption is there is a toe difference between the standard alignment and "track" alignment. No worries:cheers:

and caster as well. I was under the impression its not just moving the strut inboard and outboard, that other things would be affected by this motion.

Got it. Could be the case but I observed no discernable changes to toe or caster when we changed camber on the rack.

Not sure if accurate but from another thread:

Front Camber: -1.03 +/- 0.75 degrees
Front Toe: 0.0 degrees
Front total Toe: 0 +/- 0.2 degrees
Front Caster: 6.91 +/- 0.75 degrees

Rear Camber: -1.5 +/- 0.75 degrees
Rear Toe: 0.12 +/- 0.2 degrees
Rear total Toe: 0.23 +/- 0.2 degrees

As an aside, my car rolled out of the factory with -1.4 degrees negative camber at the front and -1.5 degrees at the rear.

Can anyone confirm?

That tolerance on front/rear camber looks suspect.

Off topic. Noticed you have GA1R wheels. I have used that wheel in the past. Great wheel! Did you consider the slightly lighter SA1R?

No such wheel "SA1R" unless you meant the AR1's. Lighter yes (maybe 1lb)but not load rated for R comp tires. GA1R's in production here as well.

What is being used for the Rear Camber?

The stock arm allows camber adjustment.

So any sponsors on here sell Vorshlag CC?
