Beeline mfg camber plates
Got a set of beeline mfg camber plates from a old auto crossed 82. Wanted to know if anyone heard of them and are they good enough to replace my respeed set?

3 bolt slider, i don't see where the spring/shock can pivot (especially the spring). are they aluminum too? aluminum can break, steel bends. i don't see any reason to put those in
kinda neat, maybe if you were building some period correct car?

No, you don't have to cut to use the Respeed coilovers. It is an option, if you require more movement than the shape of the standard hole allows, but it is not a requirement. In order to get that extra amount of adjustment with any camber plates, you would still have to cut the openening out. I have more than enough adjustment available (way more than enough) without performing any cutting at all.
Are you having problems getting enough camber adjustment with the Respeed plates? Are you using stock sized springs? Or coilovers? With stock sized springs, the limiting factor will be the spring hitting the chassis. This isn't an issue with coilovers because the spring diameter is smaller.

I don't think the part is very old, I think they where made around 2005-2006 by a local machinist that I believe owned Beeline mfg. I believe he made a set for his Rx-7 then another rx7club member saw them and asked if he would make more... PM'd You

I am running coilovers with the respeed rack with 5lug swap the problem was with the hre rims that came off a 2nd gen needed all the camber. The beeline ones maxed out with no cutting and since I changed shells figured I would try not cutting on this one.
rx seven I seen a couple things from google about this guy from beeline but never found anything about the camber plates just some times from autocross events. Thanks for the info gonna try them out and if they break hope I have fun doing it
