ke70dave Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 I'm sure its been mentioned before in this thread, but how much castor/camber do you run on the front there? looks like a fair bit of castor judging by how much its cambering in that photo there.

Top secret but for you Dave, Ill share. don't tell anyone. 3.6 caster. 2.2 camber.
ke70dave Posted August 26, 2010 Report Posted August 26, 2010 (edited) ahh nice, so not tooo much castor. ive currently got +2.5 caster, and -1 camber. could do with a bit more castor me thinks. though I'm pretty close to the (somewhat standard) front guard as it is. ps. your secret is safe with me.

mungi mods Posted August 27, 2010 Report Posted August 27, 2010 i run maxxed castor with stock camber :blinks:
orangeLJ Posted September 1, 2010 Report Posted September 1, 2010 A fresh slap of paint will make this a very tidy car. Congrats on how well it came together in the end. The red one was great and all, but this version is ace.
LittleRedSpirit Posted September 18, 2010 Author Report Posted September 18, 2010 Was driving around for work this morning and had the pleasure of driving with this nice AE71 that I found out lives just down the road from me.
LittleRedSpirit Posted October 18, 2010 Author Report Posted October 18, 2010 OK its been a while. Sorry to anyone who noticed this thread missing. There is a long story that goes along with it but not really something I will discuss here. Ask me what was going on face to face if you want, but I'm moving on from it and now moving forwards with the car. I have just fitted the near new koni yellow shocks to the rear end that came in the ae86 I bought. Its such a big step up over the trd greens I cannot believe it. I also bought a new set of rear shock rubber for them in Nolathane, part numbers I could share if my girlfriend hadnt for about the millionth time thrown away something I wanted to keep without asking me. Same as vb commodoore anyhow, in stock at most places and the top and bottom bushes cost in total 20 bucks. Not a bush many people upgrade but well worth it and easy to fit. I just got some adjustable upper trailing arms, they are street legal ones from whiteline that are on car adjustable and have nolathane either end. Will fit them soon.
philbey Posted October 18, 2010 Report Posted October 18, 2010 ....I could share if my girlfriend hadnt for about the millionth time thrown away something I wanted to keep without asking me.... haha funny shit. good to see the thread back up.
