Do you have an RE Amemiya car that needs aligning or something?

Maybe you could email RE Amemiya and they'll tell you...

the fact that you are wondering what their camber settings for their car are, is utterly useless.

the real questions you be asking yourself are: am i comfortable with it? does it suit my particular driving style? am i comfortable with the way the car reacts to my inputs?


you've asked the wrong question. what you need to do is drive the car and tweak your suspension little by little.

dont think that once you have one persons suspension setup, doesnt automatically mean that you're going to like it right off the bat. every person has their own tastes.

maybe he likes a little bit of toe-in/out, massive negative camber front and rear, maybe he likes the car to oversteer/understeer with great ease...

just cause you have his exact suspension with the exact setting doesnt mean it going to reward you with fast lap times and win you every time attack/road course/autox events.




if you initially said that you were going to use these settings as a starting point, then that would be a valid question. instead of just asking what their settings are and getting several people upset

well the reason why I ask these questions is because I have searched this forum and do not have a starting point on what settings I should use. I like my car to have a little oversteer but not too much. Do I make the front more camber than the rear? do I make the back more ? soo many questions...

Do I want to have the exact same settings as REAmemiya? no I dont, of course there is no magic formula to ultimate settings because everyone lieks it different. But I would defintiely like to know what Amemiyas settings to use as a starting point.
