Aftermarket camber kits f&r?
- Thread starter s-zero
- Start date
Just lower the car 1.5 inches from stock and the fronts will have a range of about -2 to -5, the a range of about -3 to -5.5. Don't quote me on the max negative end of the range, but the point is that you will be able to get -3 at both ends with stock adjusters.
If for some reason you won't lower it that much, CT has offset front ball joint bushings to shift the adjustment range more negative (or positive installed 180 out). So, same total adjustment amount but starting from a different center point. There are no such parts for the rear, but bushings similar to the fronts may be feasible.

My car has been bounced off a couple of curbs before i just recently bought it. The front end is still ok (wheel bearings and all joints). It only makes about .5 degrees neg maxed but i havent lowered it yet. The rear is about the same as well!? I took it to the track everything stock and it scrubs the outsides of the tires pretty bad. I guess i'll have to pick up those bushings and lower the car to see what i get. Thanks for the tip.
Ponyboy said:Hmph. I've only been able to get at most 2.5 neg camber on both ends with a 1.5" lowered car. Sjs, is there a specific technique used to get 3 -5 neg?
I never expected to hear that. Once I installed the H&Rs the least negative I could get in the rear was -3, which is consistent with a number of other people. I'm pretty sure it lowered only 1.5 as claimed, but didn't actually measure before & after. The fronts could have gone down to around -1.5 but I left them at -2. Are you sure you lowered it 1.5 inches?
I'm sorry - I made an error. My car is only lowered 1" with the Eibachs. Maybe that's the culprit. I just put the Comptech front noncompliance pivot thing (my words) on and that should give me a little more neg camber up front. We'll see...it's getting aligned today.
There is a point where the front suspension will start to go back to zero the lower it gets, although I honestly do not know that "point". That is why Comptech has the offset bearing, is to allow a car that is lowered more than 1.5 to 2 inches more negative camber (P.D.'s was closer to -5)
Yeah, my friend just had his aligned with a 1.5 inch drop and the range for adjustment was 1.8-.7 negative front and 3.3 to2.5 rear negative so i think that it will be pretty close if i get the front offset units and deal with about 2 degrees neg on the rear.
Jimbo -- Cantrell Concepts has been working on the part for quite awhile now. The actual kit is complete, but we're working on a elegant and simple installation system. You will be able to add or deduct a degree of camber.

Mine was lowered a bit more than 1.5". The max I can get in the front is -2.4 degree. The min I can get in the rear is -3 degree.
With the Comptech front kit, you will be able to get up to -4 degree which you will need if you run slicks. (We still wearing the outside slightly). Front only.
The rear has no problem getting more than 4 degree. This is on 91 NSX. The 96 can only get about 1 degree less.
