Camber kit
#3
Spc bolts are what we use in the fronts. They are the adjustable kind. Spc also has a shim kit for the rear.
Are you lowered? On what? 15_16x8 can be done, but fender mods will be a must. Rolling, cutting, and maybe some pulling. Tire stretch will help but fender work is inevitable.

By air runners I assume you mean bag type system. Lowered it sits on ground, raised it sits about stock right? Spc bolts for the front. You may want two sets to give you maximum camber when dumped. Something like -2° up front. Both front shock bolts are replaced with spc bolts. In the rear you need either Spc red shim kit, or just shim it with washers. Shims go behind hub to give camber. -2° again up to-3° is probably what your looking for. Tire ware may be a slight issue. With a 15_16x8 im assuming your offset is around +10_+30. Is this your offset goal? Offset will tell you how much camber and fender mods are needed.

Old thread, but anyway. The bolts go into the bottom strut mount bolt holes. The bolt is accentric meaning it has a big metal oval thingy in the middle of it. This thingy moves the strut towards or away by simply turning the bolt. Once you stick bolt in and put nut in other side. Tighten the nut hand tight. Rotate the bolt while watching the strut bolt hole. You will see the strut move in and out. Do this a couple times so you get the feel of what it looks like in and out. When the strut is pushed back that is negative camber. Pushed out is positive. If you are gonna run both bolts with spc ones you must do both at the same time to active max negative camber. Then hold bolt with wrench and tighten the shit out of the nut, but dont allow bolt to twist or you must do this again. Hope this helps, and good luck to ya.
Fyi: just wanted to throw this out there. A professional should do your alignment.

So i've heard people complain on here that once you lock these things down, they don't really stay dialed very well and move around over time? Lock-tite these things to make them stay? Or is it a different issue entirely that causes the problems?
I'm used to camber plates, so I have no experience with these things, but am curious. Bthasht answered my question about how they work, so now i'm just curious about how sketchy they are in keeping the alignment where I set it at for a longish period of time.
Any input appreciated. Thanks all.

Gd3 2004 rear camber
Hello, im from indonesia. Umm my problem i want to do rear camber on my gd3, but in indonesia it's so difficult to find camber kit for my car. My friends told me to put some flat ring between the hub and the arm, but my mechanic said the hub may will tilt but the axle still straight, it will damage the bearing or the hub, does anyone have idea about that? If you don't mind, please send email to me how to do that, rakhabaritama24@gmail.com thank you guys
