Any installed pictures?

What are you all using for camber plates? I currently have MSI, but they have a rather tall stack height forcing me to run the spring perches almost all the way down my Tarmac 2's.. and I'm not even very low at all.
25.675 fender heights all around.

I was choosing between the HVT and Raceseng and ended up with HVT. They may not have the sex appeal but they do exactly what I need to for a bit less.

I really like the HVT but I'm a bit concerned about them maxing out at 1.8 deg camber.

I get about 3.2 deg with maxed out $8 OEM bolts. It's more than I need, still quite a bit cheaper.

Oh that's perfect! I may have to go that route.

Currently running WRX camber plates.. set at -3.3 ... I have ALOT of range that I could go like to -5.5 if needed. but isn't necessary for obvious reasons.

There's a number of high quality options and I can't see you going wrong with any of them. Just comes down to comparing price with what you actually need from the product. Glad I could help though.

I've been debating between those and the Ground Control option. Mostly something high quality that won't raise the car.

Just wondering if any of you guys that are running the KW and have swapped springs are looking to offload the originals. Looking for the stiffer 400/343 rates (obviously).

this is a pic of -3.3 degrees.. As you can see I have a ton of adjustment there..



Standard WRX Camber plates..nothing special



these are EBAY specials. One word of Caution if you decide to use these. They only come with a 12x1.5 nut..where as most Subaru Fitments are 12x1.25 ... so I used Cusco top nuts that I had from another application. Most Camber plate bearings are the same diameter..so fitting the Cusco Top nuts wasn't an issue.

Looks like I'm finally going to buy some more parts an actually put them on the car. Still have half an STX build sitting in my storage room. I know, I'm lame. But with the ability to drive the SSR Vette, my motivation has been lacking. Also, quiet and comfortable has been quite nice. But I'm finally going to install all the suspension goodies soon after I order a few more things.

So real question here, what's the current thinking on rear lower arms? I know the SPC is the standard go to, but thought I had heard word of those slipping? Probably will get it anyways. Just wanted to get the consensus here.

I have the SPCs and haven't had any slip since I installed them (1 lapping day and 3 auto x days so far) but I was only running 225/50/16 tires. I am throwing on 255s tonight and considering ordering Cusco arms to replace my SPCs...
