Stevo_n Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Hi, i am currently getting my EP91 Glanza finished, i have just fitted Tein springs with KYB dampers(all new)I think it was around a 50mm drop, maybe more front/back. Will have to check. I have also ordered some camber bolts for the front, has anyone adjusted the rear? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob H@RCH Engineering Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 The rear is not adjustable it has been covered a few times all ready on hear if you have a look, the ends of the rear axle are welded into place so carnt be adjusted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had searched and found same results, just a last resort. Thanks for reply Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Liam_D Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Been told its the perfect camber setting for road use matey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stevo_n Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Been told its the perfect camber setting for road use matey Yeah it will be fine at that, shame you can't set rear's though. Car has been tested and run for a few days, will update the progress thread soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
turboloon Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 please keep us updated i have these bolts but haven't fitted them,these in theroy are doing the same job as a anti lift kit..is that correct..? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 No, an anti lift kit creates extra castor and prevents lift and dipping under accel/braking Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starbo Moorley Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 You can get rear camber, you just get the beam profesionaly bent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Still waiting on someone to do it lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Got an idea, seems redneck but I'll load up a pic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stevo_n Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 The bolts i have bought are the camber adjustment ones. They will be fitted Saturday, then tracked and set. I will let you know what the results are. Don't fancy bending the beam tbh. It will be fine as it is. Don't know if you have seen the progress thread, but i carnt stay out of the car lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 No, an anti lift kit creates extra castor and prevents lift and dipping under accel/brakingThe anti lift plates reduce lift under acceleration but INCREASE dip under braking by the same amount. Castor bushes and antilift plates can be fitted separately. I used castor bushes but removed the antilift plates.You can get 1degree using the standard bolts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Really, they increase dip? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mindless Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 We recently just bought a spare rear beam our EP82 time attack car and will try to cut and shim the rear hubs to get a bit more camber out of them. I was able to ask Fernando Saravia (I think you guys know him as the red glanza race car http://extreem-ep.net/?p=722) if he had any adjustment done to the rear camber and he confirmed that cutting the hub and shimming it (using longer bolts too) was what they did. It just took quite a bit of trial and error to find out how much camber was needed (how many shims to put) - but hey if it works for a 250 whp race car why not. So yeah its been done before and looks like it works. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Awesome!! Do you have any pics?? I really want someone in the UK to try it so I can get it done on my GT, especially after seeing this Micra. I'm sure they have the same rear suspension design as us? http://www.street-cover.com/2012/qld-haos-k11-nissan-micra.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AlancEP82 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) might be worth keeping an eye on this thread for a reply,shiming it only way I think www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?104839-first-for-starlet-ep91-ep82-rear-camber-!!!!!!!
