thx for stepping up to the plate to help us 3rd gen GS owners when bigger companies like Ingalls and SPC won't even take a sniff at us!

if i may make a suggestion: if you're gonna do a rear camber kit for us, might as well do a front camber kit as well. i certainly would be willing to pay more for a complete kit (F and R) as opposed to just a rear camber kit. thx

I'd like to buy a kit as soon as they're available.

If no one volunteers in the next couple weeks (depending on my schedule), i will bring my car down from Orange County to El Cajon for the R&D....Im sure there is someone out there who is closer!!!

Revenge Motorsports will need the car for about 2-3 days.

This actually started when i saw the post regarding the Intake R&D by Revenge, I decided to PM them to see what their response would be.
I was surprised to hear how open Revenge Motorsports is with this Camber Kit R&D - they gave me the impression that they are "stand-up" type of establishment.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the car comes from the factory with camber adjustments for the front. I'm lowered 2" and my tech was able to get my camber near factory specs. It's adjustable to a certain extent, but not with the range that a camber kit provides. Unless you're excessively lowered, the front isn't necessary.

Rear is a different story. My rear on DF210's makes the tire look like a butterfly wanting to flap its wings and fly off.

as far as i know both front and rear aren't adjustable, someone can correct me. i am surprised with 2" front your front is in spec. even the 2gs with full adjustment couldn't get it close to factory spec. all you can do is adjust toe to compensate

The tech who aligned my car is my future brother in law and allowed me to go into the garage at his work and watch him align it on the rack. He told me there were camber adjusters on the front, but none on the rear when he looked it up on the computer via the service manual disc. Only toe could be adjusted for the rear.

I emphasize near factory specs, not actual. The readings for the front left were -1.5 camber, 5.6 caster and .05 toe. Right front was -1.6 camber, 5.8 caster and .04 toe. My rear camber is out by more than a degree over factory. It sits at -2.3 left and -2.6 right. This was the best that he could get it and the front tires seem to wear evenly so far, even though I've only driven about 1k since it was aligned in early February.
