Suspension Brakes 1st Gen Most liked posts in thread: Toe problem with aggresive camber

Take any working car and drop it off a 3 story building STANCE look and functionality achieved. :lol:

 

^^^ That should be in the Stupid things people do thread. Morons :lol:

 

I've been saying that since stance started taking the VW world by storm years ago (which is why I don't go to shows anymore) - it's the busted suspension look.

 

Since you asked - truthfully rat style cars are not my thing, but you did the work yourself, and your car is still setup to haull ass and corner - so I am good with it.

 

Another option is give up on the whole Stance look and make the car drivable and useful when moving. :lol:

 

I guess I'm missing it. This is a show car right, so does toe really matter?

 

Didn't like his stance crap in the VW world and dislike it even more here. If it's art - put it in a gallery, don't drive it and don't call yourself an automotive enthusiast.

 

If you cannot get enough adjustment at the trailing arms, you might need to get a set of top adjustable control arms to help adjust the toe with the large negative camber.

 

Not to sound like a bozo, but -9 degrees of camber is crazy. I'm finding hard to believe that number is even attainable. I'd suggest a normal wheel fitment & a good alignment.

I know in the front as you add negative camber you also add toe-in which can be dialed out with an alignment. I'm not sure about the rear, it may or may not be the same.

 

Yes that is correct. Seems that is what the OP wants. Me I like to drive more than admire my car at a show. Different strokes.

Wouldn't it be interesting to put that stanced car on a track & run it against a car with a more driveable suspension? I bet the time difference would be massive. :wink:

 

M|U, Motoring Underground is where he will find his answer for that STANCE look.

 

Haven't been there in years. Are they still around?

 

I haven't logged in there for well over a year! Only thing they seemed to be good for was picture threads.

 

Some performance camber tires might just provide that racer's edge........

Why did I even bother with plates & arms?

 

Non movement is better as the Stance /Stretch / Poke makes moving the cars something they don't do very well. Tires wear out, cars bang and scrape the undercarriage etc.

 

nothing extreme with that 9 degree camber...

Hey.... You can do that with stacked washers and some all-thread..... It's safe...

 

Not according to Rally...........it's art.
