cheers, i raised the front to bring up the rake from the front and it sits fairly square now. Will probably end up bringing up the front 5mm to really even it out and stop alot of scraping.
I have just ordered a set of Pedders Camber arms (upper) for the rear. I thought about this and went for this rather than the lower arms. Should have them in by tommorow, all the ride heights sorted by the weekend, then will get a wheel alignement next week. Then i will be happy.
Can anyone help - i know the rear end is not set up properly (camber and toe angle) but the handling feels...... how to put it, i mean its nice and smooth, handles well, but in a straight line over bumps the car tends to move around a bit on the road.
Could this be just due to a non setup rear????? - i made some more height adjustments in the front today - the height is just about plum now. I have the rears at 5 clicks, the fronts are at 6 clicks off soft.
I will put the rear camber kit and and get an alignment and see how it feels next week. Hope its all good.

$210 for the arms, with ball joints. They said the toe will not be that far out as to need something like the ingalls kit, so ill get this today and see how we go. Have to make a final adjustment to height.
Is the tramlining because of the camber on the rear?
Same same really i beleive. They both control the anlge of the hub in conjunction with each other. Have one that is adjustable and you can alter hub angle.
when i had a lexus is200, i swapped from 19s to stocks which i think were 17s, and after every bump the car felt like a boat.. took it for an allignment and all was back to normal.
tyre place said something about the wheel size change puts everything out, even when you raise and lower your car a little bit, everything needs to be re adjusted again..
True to that, its hard to imagine just how much the slightest amount of angle in the tyre will effect the ride/handling.
I did however, this weekend, set the height pretty close. I have got the left to right height within 1.5-2mm so i will have one more go to try and narrow that down, then its off to pedders to get a full alignment with the new camber arms installed.
PS espionage your car looks tough from the profile pic.
, should deck out the rear some more to even out the car
