    If you are lowering the car any substantial amount, you guys may want to consider KMAC eccentric bushings for the front lower control arms/ They correct the negative front camber when the geometry of the suspension arms become more parallel to the ground and force the bottom of the wheel outward.

    Hey Vetruck, a question for you. When would you suggest the need for fitting the KMac bushings, anything over 1.5 inch/37mm drop?

    Sorry guys, Had family issues and was away for a few days.

    I ran the calculations on the car when I first bought it 4 years ago and if I recall it needed the corrections at about 1.5" lower than OEM. Once at about 2" drop the car was static -1.2* camber up front and went to about -1.8* dynamic in suspension travel over bumps to about 2.5" drop equivilent (1 inch suspension travel from 1.5" static drop) The cars should not run more then about -0.4* front static camber

    Sounds good, but is there a camber plate for the top of the strut/shocks available for these cars instead of that bushing?
    Because honestly i think is a better option and easier to adjust than the eccentric bushing!

    No because these cars do not have a strut, they are upper and lower control arms with a regular shock and spring separate from each other, not a coil-over.
