I have stock struts with Pro Kits and Konis but want a bit more front neg camber for the twisties. Anyone using camber bolts to achieve this?
 
eg. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/5-81270K-EIBACH-Front-Camber-Bolts-Toyota-MR2-91-97-/160696554976?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item256a42d5e0#ht_3506wt_906
 
Any feedback would be much appreciated.
 
Cheers

Very commonly used by the AE86/rolla guys. My BCs give me -1.2° camber which for my tyres is plenty. I had a digital inclinometer that I used to set the camber on a flat surface but that got stolen along with all of my other stuff. Provided you torque them up correctly and use some threadlocker there's nothing wrong with using these at all. Toyota actually make their own 'crash bolts' that are very decent from what I've heard.
 
You can also use the angle sensor in a smartphone to get a rough measurement with the right app. Tested back to back with my inclinometer my Galaxy S2 was accurate to within .1° but an iPhone 4 was within .05°.
 
But remember, the more negative camber you set the less rubber you have on the road for straight line braking. I'm going to get some camber/crash bolts at some point to even up the negative rear camber on mine, I think I had 0.7°/0.5° L/R.
 
 

Why not use the toyota crash bolts?
They have narrower centres that allow a bit more movement to align the struts.

The Toyota camber bolts are probably the best quality, and come in 3 different size apart from stock.
They have raised dots on the head to indicate relative size.
 
They are fairly cheap and I got mine from Twos'r'us but you could try the obvious local suppliers.
 
At 188 ft/lb I doubt if they would come loose, even without threadlocker.
 

Those Toyota ones are not adjustable though, so I'd probably need a few different sets by the sounds of it. I think id prefer to just rotate the bolt to get the desired camber changes :/
Also probably looking at less neg camber on rear to gain some more traction too.

All that extra boost givin' you hassles now eh? :P

I think I have a pair of used adjustable camber bolts in the shed that you could try. I had them on my SW20 for a few weeks then removed them after I rolled my guards.
You can have em cheap :) 
Same as the ones below.

Found a solution to your traction problem

EssDub - no hassels, just gotta be careful in the wet lol
 
Mrskylighter - how cheap is cheap? :P
 
MRVirgin - that looks like the best solution, if only I could justify the costs :(
 
I downloaded an Andriod app called 'Camber gauge' and will take a baseline tonight. Seems to jump around a fair bit though so I couldn't really bank on it.

Use a spirit level and some trig. Once you work out the maths takes no time, and very accurate :p
