yup. 85 front suspension and brakes on REspeed camber kit, ignition, FB clutch slave/master, SE tranny and 4.44 @ 81 GSL 3rd member. With the front suspension, I was running FB coil overs but its too stiff, so for now, Im runnign FB front springs but soon to be RB springs since its the same height as the stockers.

WEll since Billy is the one making these maybe he can do the R&D part before selling them. So that way it doesnt end up a big papper weight do you guys think???

A few things to consider before we plan trips and weekends
If we are looking to add camber with the setup then we need to know:
What models are we doing this for? 2's and 3's?
Is the factory camber the same for both?
Is the king pin angle the same for both?
Will the final camber number be based on with or without camber plates?
Will the final camber number be based on with or without rx7 struts?
If the final camber number is based on a rx3 with camber plates and rx7 struts then It may not work with an rx2 without plates. Or it may be way to much camber for the guys sticking with stock struts and king pin angles.
I guess my question from before did not explain what I really wanted to know.
Who all thinks they want them and what will your setup be?

I'm not looking for turn-in spacers. Unfortunately, I'm also a no-go for a test mule as Koni has my only struts and the front and rear are in pieces. I'm still happy to help down out in Lawrenceville, though.

I definetely want some turn in spacers for my RX-2. I plan on running RX7 struts (that way I can use your big brake kit adapter). I also will use camber plates.
