Hey guys, i need alignment/geometry on my car and was today at mazda dealer...they have stuff to get numbers, but they don`t know how to change **** like camber/caster....

I need something to tell them how to do it, pictures welcome ;o)))

I know about rotating shocks, but they said that my blue tokico's are symetric and that **** would not change if they rotate them....i wish to have caster/camber plates, that would help a lot guess...but i don`t have them..

Please, don`t tell me to go somewhere else i am in CZECH REPUBLIC, as well don`t tell me to get something what is for sale somewhere in US :p

Thanks...

 

you can't change the camber in the rear. (unless you buy an adjustable camber link for around $100usd) you can just the front alittle by rotating them. the shocks have nothing to do with it as you should still have your stock rubber mounts at the top.

I don't know if you can change caster or not. but you can change toe front and rear.

i said them same about turning it, but they didn`t trust me...but they will try to get me some kind of camber/caster plates...

and how to set alignment in rear ?

 

I told you can't change the camber in the rear without a link, like this one http://www.racingbeat.com/resultset....rtNumber=14008

the only front camber plates I've seen that fit the stock sized springs are the cusco ones for around $200usd. all the others require coil overs.

 

i can`t change ANYTHING in rear ? i don`t mean camber/caster

 

The toe in the rear is adjustable. Where the trailing arm on each side meets the subframe there is an adjusting cam . You can't miss it . It has hash marks for reference. See section 13 of the manual that is free online. Section 13 has pictures that show which way to turn it to increase or decrease the toe. As for the front , if you look at the online manual in section 10A, there is a picture and graph that shows the positions of the mounting block for changing the camber and caster. The manual is here http://www.iluvmyrx7.com/Technical_I...ice_manual.htm The rear camber can't be adjusted unless you get aftermarket equipment as is shown on this page http://www.mazdatrix.com/h6_86-92.htm Item 14008 costs about 105 bucks.
Section 10 is called MANUAL STEERING SYSTEM, and its page 9 you need to look at.
Section 13 is called SUSPENSION and the pages you want are 28-32.
