    The toe will be massively out if you put in that much camber and not adjusted it

    You toe is probably really screwed up from the extra camber. Point the steering wheel straight and look at the wheels from the front of the car, they're probably pointing outwards or in.

    so i grind-ed down the back side of the knuckle arm yesterday made clearance for the springs so i got a chance to take it out for a spin with the camber maxed out on the front. and it just feels really weird it feels like the car car wants to pull side to side it almost feels like it skipping/jumping sideways and wen i go into a turn or in circles the steer wheel wants to pull in hard.im assuming this is cause of the excessive camber and the toe is off and i might need an alignment? has anyone ever experience this with alot of camber and how do u fix it? or is this just the price i have to pay for having too much camber ?

    Interesting to say the least, its going to look good when you get it finished. I don't think shaving a little off the knuckle is going to hurt, but don't take to much off.

    dont worry its a dip if u dont know what a dip is its like a rubberized paint so its removable. so if i get bored of the color i can just peel it off.

    thanks man

    i am planning on doing a 99-00 front end conversion it has that sleeker look to it. i never really like the 96-98 look. i have the whole front clip already but it just needs to be paint match to the car, so if anyone wants to buy this one let me kno lol

    took the front clip off working on wheel tire clearances, so after i had lowered the car off the jack i had played with the steering wheel moving it back and forth and i heard some unusual rubbing noises like metal on metal noises so i crawled under the car to check it out and found this


    because of the excessive camber the spindle arm is rubbing up against the springs lol the only thing i can think of to do is take out the trusty old grinder and shave down a sixteenth for that to clear what do u guys think bout that safe to do that? btw these are cheap springs shock combo im using. i am ordering actual coilovers the d2 sl's so im crossing my fingers and hoping they are going to be skinnier or ill have issues
