Camber settings??
Sunday, June 10, 2012 6:28 PM
Looking for some recommend settings for camber.

I have Koni reds with Sportlines. I will be installing some Mcmoney adjustable strut mounts.

I will be getting a alignment afterwards. Should I go with 0 degree's? -1? -2?

This is a street driving car. I currently do not autoX, but might try it in the future.

I was going to have the shop set it to a few different settings and mark the plates so I could always adjust later.


Thanks for any info feedback.

-1-1.5 degrees will help with turn in and shouldn't have any ill effects on tire wear.

since you will MOSTLY DD it, Id go -0.5... gives you a hair of handling without looking awkward and still handle a lot better than zero.

Car isn't really a DD either. Could be, but I have a 97 Sunfire as a DD, so I mainly drive the cavy when I want, or for fun etc..

I have mine set to -1.5 and I DD it.
You cant really change the camber whenever you want since it will affect the toe aswell.

-1. If u auto x it u want -3. More important is toe for driving. Toe zero for normal driving and toe out if u auto x. Caster is also a big thing as well.

If you have stock soft rubber control arm bushings you will want to run a little toe out1/8th. when you are driving down the road the power applied to the front wheels pulls them forward toeing them in killing mpg and turn in as well as torque steer is worse


see ya!
