Exclamation Camber Adjustment?

How do you adjust the camber on a Second Gen? I have a TII and I'd like to adjust the camber out some for autocross. I looked up under the frame and saw a few different adjustment points. I know one is camber and one is toe, but which is which? Chris

there is no way to adjust camber in a 2nd gen. you can rotate the top mounts on the front to gain a little bit but I forgot off hand which way. you can buy a rear camber link for about $100 to change camber in the rear. best way in the front is camber plates but that also requires coil overs....

Truechoice www.truechoice.com sells a camber correction kit that basically includes a smaller diameter bolt and an eccentric bushing for the lower strut mounts that allows you to dial in a bit more camber in the front. As Scott said, the only way to adjust rear camber is with an adjustment link. Many places sell the link.

that is probably the eibach kit. I have that and it has come loose twice on me. I just redid it with a washer and locknut so hopefully it'll stay. When I get some more $$ in the spring I'm buying camber plates. so much better.
