that dudes FC is top notch. i wish i could find more info on the spindle/LCA setup he's using. we have the same wheels, and same front fenders, yet his front track is way wider than mine.

maybe notched shock tube for more camber, and 50mm spacer, or extended/tubed front LCA - extended tie rods.
JTP needs to start selling the 45mm front fenders so i can get MO ANGLE. these 30mm's are killing me.

That's nice!!
What I mod on mine for more camber was extended front ball joints. With Subaru impreza inner tie rods and s13 outer tie rods. I can adjust -2 through -8 camber. :p lol just tinkering and help from friends.

OP knows I'm not just some jerk-off **** talking, he's seen the car I'm referring to..

2A knows his ****! When i get some time, im gonna stop by his shop and see about lca's

These guys own when it comes to rotaries(building and tuning)

You dudes don't even know

I was just giving you all a hard time as well, all in good fun. Sure my first post was a tad harsh, didn't realize you guys were so sensitive. Even though I don't agree with the form over function, I give you guys credit for showing up and getting your cars on the track. I wish other forms of racing would have as good of turnouts like we do at the drift nights here in AZ.

I've had a little experience with setting up FC suspension, so was just trying to share.

this isn't a **** fight. everyones just trying to hangout, and have fun.

yes, i'm pretty sure we all know that you can alter just about anything to correct for ride height by moving pick up points, and making tons of custom, one off, high dollar mods to your car.

we all want to spend minimal money, have fun, get laid, and again, have fun.

awesome! the tie rods are the same thread pitch for the power rack? it looks menacing. i've been trying to figure out a way to space my ball joints out, but extending the tie rods was the thing holding me back.

thanks for the info! it's cool to support fellow FC dudes.

I asked that NZ dude what he did to get that camber in front and he said he extended his lca's by 30mm. Idk what else he did but maybe that helps.

my issue was finding the tie rods first. when i was looking at it i figured that would have to be the starting point so i knew how much i could lengthen the LowerBJ (yes, im waiting for it) and still have my wheels straight.

Secret Element was making some extended tie rods for power rack but i cant find them now.
i also could just buy another few thread on spacers for the inner tie rod to get the rods extended, although doesnt seem like a rad idea.

my supernow end links are all bent/hammered from use, so going to S13 **** wouldn't bug me. Forrest gets the deals on Stance Super angle tie rod end kits, so ill just buy one of those, and use the impreza tie rods, or like i said just get another angle kit and use the extra spacers, and replace my bunk *** endlinks.

i already have an amazing amount of steering angle before lock, without any binding. just need to get the extra 10* or so left, and space my wheels away from the the frame rail section/lca and not murder my fender while doing so..

I'll double check after work I have a set laying around. The more you extend the ball joints the more camber you can get etc.I believe but the tie rods need extension as well. I give lots of credit to my friend who welded the lower ball joints. Ill take pics of it as well. Idk lol I'm just budget but it helps alot for me in long run...
