Default Camber

I know products are limited, but does anyone have any experience gettting negative camber out of these cars? I have TCS sportine fronts and Im not getting anywhere near what I need. I wanted to see if anyone has any thoughts before I modify these or the factory arms.

I thought everyone said the TCS sportline fronts were death on wheels. If by fronts you mean the Supra front upper control arms. I think Diazen also makes a kit that replaces the camber bushing adjuster with something that has more adjustment.

Beyond that you are insane cause you are going into -8* + of camber. lolol

The Diazen gets to -8*?

What is the issue with the TCS arms?

The threaded joint sections like to back out.

I know that my car stock is sitting at -6 so i imagine with daizen and the TCS's you could go way negative like well beyond the point of any kind of usefullness

IIRC, that was only one time that happened and it was because it wasn't installed correctly to begin with.

I thought there were 2 or three dudes in that thread complaining about the same problem though. If these aren't that bad for $215 I'll swoop them up

I agree that is plenty for street use, but not for what I need to do. Ive had the arms on for 2 weeks and no problems. Im actually going to remove nut to get like 1 more degree.
