Hi guys i just purchased a set of Buddy Club N+ Coilovers for my 06 Euro :D:D

I now require a rear camber kit, because i was not able to buy one from the place that i bought my coilovers from.

I would like to know if there is any other place that i can purchase an Ingalls rear camber kit from in Sydney besides JDM Yard which is unable to get them atm.

I do not want to go with a budget brand such as "Kmac", if anyone can point me in the direction of an establishment where i can pick up ingalls kit from i will appreciate it alot.

Thankyou

pauly

mmm, most would recommend Ingalls camber kit, they are the best ones imo. Ive got a set myself and it was from JDMyard too. pity on the wait though. Other than that i remember looking on eBay as there was a shop over in the US that sold them, but of course being eBay probably not alot of trust there. Bcoz with them buddyclub coilovers you got, you can drop the car realli low. Low as in front and rear tyres tucking in. And since with such a big drop your gonna get heaps of neg camber and so the Ingalls has alot of versatility.
How long did JDMYard say the wait was gonna be? can you wait for it or you realli eager to slam the car? :)
Congratz on the purchase man, the drop will be hottt.

Nah actually quite a few of us got the ingalls camber kit off ebay.
I did as well, and the wait was at max 2 weeks.

29-09-2008, 02:57 PM
Thanks mate i cant wait to slam it :)

Yes JDM yard are actually looking for a new supplier as the old one was not reliable.

Umm im really stuck as i have heard such good things about the ingalls camber kits so i dont really want to opt for a lesser product.

There has to be another place in sydney that can get them in for us...

LOL TRUST ME IF ANY1 KNOWS ITS ME dont mean to be rude or cocky guys but firstly doesnt matter how wondeful ur camber kit is because their is only so much u can do before it is to close to the guard my camber is so massive now its not funny and i have a camber kt and it wont do sh#t because my rims r less that 1mm from the guard thats with the camber kit obviosly bringing it that close but what im saying is u still cant even bring it out alot to even worry bout how long they are beacuse their is only some much u can do wen ur low as the car naturally cambers to tuck UNDER the guard not INTO it :)

Spot on Daz.

Yeah, as on my previous post. Im staying with stockies dropping until there's no finger gap all round or slight tuck'age. Camber kit will serve it's purpose.

As for brand, I think coz lotsa people have them and have good experience with them, thats why people want them? I know thats why I bought the Ingalls. But thats me.

TRaNz
29-09-2008, 11:15 PM
Thats coz you slammed the rear and have huge freakin wheels. The other person might not op for such huge wheels. They might want to go for smaller JDM wheels for performance and handling where the camber kit will help reduce tyre wear from their 'sprited driving'.

So just because the camber kit didnt really work out for you, doesnt mean its gonna be useless for others.

.QD you have it mate, the reason i want ingalls is because like you said many people have had positive feedback with them and recommend them.

On the otherhand when you purchase good quality things you want to make sure everything is of a high quality, you dont want to mix poor quality with good.

Like they say "do it right the first time, you wont have to do it again"

Jdm is irrelevant to me. Slamming a car with mega "look at me rims" and doof doofing around is juvenile. Thats all im saying.

Each to their own i guess, i prefer performance orientated mods.

But at the same time i can appreciate massive drop on massive rims, i just wouldnt do it to my own car.

BTW i've got the SPC camber kit, chose it cause i didnt need to relocate my HID leveler.

I personally like the slammed and big rim look, always have and always will.. I think the euro is the perfect looking car for it too.. If anything it's the other way around performance cars such as the wrx shouldnt have their handling compromised by doing so..

Like anything aesthetic and design orientated, it's subjective.. just like not everyone likes the look of cheap small gold wheels on a red car. :p

Your absolutely right and those people ( doof doof p plater slammed try hard brigade) are the sorts of people more euro owners avoid like the plague.

I dont consider 18 inch small, no one here does. except you and your peeps. How much did my rims cost then since you have paranormal insight into my activities?

More sweeping generalisations? I'm on standard rims at standard ride height by the way, and I haven't been a P plater since the late 90's.. Your the ricer here, don't play yourself.

Camber kit rules with super duper negative camber!!

IN RESULT - BETTER TO HAVE CAMBERKIT THEN NONE AT ALL.
- BETTER TO HAVE QUALITY BRANDED STUFF AS ITS MORE REPUTABLE AND QUALITY WISE THAN NON BRANDED AND EL CHEAPO

- IF ALL PRODUCTS SATISFIES YOUR NEEDS THAN IT'S ALL GOOD.

Moral of the story... dont go that low with stockies, unless you like to scrape everywhere. I'm getting them adjusted once the coil-overs settles, and it's gonna get raised a few inches... maybe 1" :)

they just matched the stock camber and toe. will get them sorted after a week when the coil-overs get re-adjusted, then ill get wheel alignment.

Suntzu
30-09-2008, 09:34 PM
Yep. I ran mine as is from the install place for 2 weeks. Then I re-adjusted height. Then I got the alignment to my specifications at Jax tyres. Totally sweet after that.

It will settle in for a bit and you got to come to a happy medium on what height your comfortable with. Then finalise the alignment.

reverse is fine. but once the front wheels meet the gutter, front under skirt scrapes. ouuch! so yeah i have to angle. once im on that driveway, i cant go any further. unless i want to see-saw. only for a week to have that silly height. if i had them SC1's then no gap ftw :thumbsup:.

Thanks man, I'll keep it in mind. Btw, did you have to manually adjust your headlights when you lowered your car? Coz atm mine is pointing down! Beam hits only the bumper of cars doesnt even get upto the number plates (i wont be getting flashed now, haha). Not sure if the HID sensor is meant to compensate a little bit, coz my fronts aint connected atm. N+ cant take the OEM front mount. I'm gonna have to make a ghetto mount for the front.

Was scared my hand would touch the driveshaft....

The most i get is just under the plate up close, but from faraway i hit front cars plates and sometiimes the whole rear windscreen.

Meet up with me sometime and we'll compare.

Give us a call on 0438118168, damn i am going to put my rear lower tonight or tomorrow or something.

okay whoever has tein ss/flex/mfp or whatever coilovers.

When on 18", whats the finger distance you get from them on lowest at the rear and front etc.?

Just wondering.

Atm i dumped my rear the furthest my MFP can go and i can fit my index finger tightly.

might need to drive it so the spring gets adjusted to the height. <--- also my camber would be playing part of the gapness.

but i have hit the undercarriage on the first and only speed hump just before u turn up to the second level :(



i scrape when i get to the top floor at the ramp going slow and on an angle. slight scape'age, whatever is under me that's where it scrapes. other than that it's awesome.

cant wait to re-adjust slightly higher for now while stocks and get wheel alignment. steering wheel is off centre, slightly to the right atm.

haha bummer man.

whats your gap at the front? and is it on the lowest setting at the F?

you know broadway shopping centre where they have those Trapezium metal humps.

I've slammed my LAB a couple of times going slow and straight.

Most likely be the CAT heatshield but there is a chance it might be the resonators.

Another thing on topic about coilovers.

.QD (chris w/ BC N+), Akina (Alex w/ Tein SS) and i (w/ Tein MFP) met up today and compared coilies.

Got to say BC N+ not worn in yet is bloody comfy and Tein SS is almost like stock.

But my problem is Tein SS on akina's car is fully lowered at the rear and my Tein MFP is adjusted to the max at the rear also but Tein SS looks lower and has smaller gap than mine, could this be the reason from tyre size/rim combo as the tyre would be stretched out further causing it to have a smaller gap both of us running profile 40 but me(225) and alex(225)?

Note: the Tein MFP Rear is meant to be 9mm lower than Tein SS.

Cheers for your guys opinion.

akina

im 225 as well.

9mm should be a huge difference, but i have no idea why :s
looking at it today it seems like i have no gap at all at the rear.

do u have a full size spare? coz i do (17").

ROFL i have space saver!!!

alex go weigh the 17" wheel for me and see how heavy it is? unless you know how heavy it is. (about 20-21kg from the top of my head)

Can't tell you until .QD has his N+ worn in.
However, if compared to SS + MFP i'd go for SS but MFP comes with the pillowball mounts and tracks alot better around corners

And we'll test drive our cars in open space rather than in .QD's work carpark which had too many poles and possible nails on the ground.

this is before the ECU adjusts to the airflow? or did you thrash the car around after the install then take it on the dyno straight away?

damn your beating me by 5.9kw atw and you'll be more after it adjusts to the airflow.
