hey ppls :P

About 4 months ago i got the full whiteline suspension kit for my r33 gtst.. The suspension people installed everything and set the camber. Front -1.0 and rear -0.5. It seemed to be working realy well i didnt realy have any issues.. Anyways.. so i went back to the suspension place the other day and they told me that the camber on both wheels on the left hand side had been reset back to 0.

Someone crashed into the back of me a few months ago, but there wasnt realy much damage just the boot was pushed in a little. The suspension ppl told me this wouldnt of caused the camber to change.

There suggestion was that i had obviously side swiped another car, evan though the left hand side of my car has no damage on it.... nor do my rims......nor do i have any memory of this happening.....

Besides hitting the wheels real hard, what would cause the camber to change ?? like can the bolt or woteva come loose ?? and isnt it abit odd they both went back to exactly 0... ?

im just wondering because i was charged an extremely high amount for 30 minutes work to fix the camber...

One of the mag... Zoom or HPI I think, had a DIY wheel allignment artical last month. Sorry I can't be any more help than that :P

You can make up the device your self using levels and tape measure... or it's available to buy in japan I think...

    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day. 
    • It's all the sound deadening, and extra shit piled into them, plus all the extra (even though it's thinner) material for crumple zones. I can't fathom in modern cars why they need canbus to the headlights, and why the headlights must be vin coded on some cars to the ECU, BCM, and security module! Especially when they claim it's for security, yet, the canbus at the headlights let's thieves steal the car in minutes, so even more cars are being stolen! The Mercedes Sprinter 907 vans. They're a huge van, but a "basic" van. Yet they have that many canbus networks, plus two Lin networks, AND an Ethernet network. Logging a single network alone of 8 byte data frames, and they will generate a 20mb log file in 5 minutes. That's one network, and I can't remember the exact amount, but there's over 10 full CAN2.0B networks in them. I'm not a fan of modern cars, oddly, more and more I hate DBW, and all the bullshittery the cars try and interfere with. But all that bullshittery adds weight, plus crazy regulations on crumple zones, plus, ever picked a modern seat up, half of them have like 4 electric motors in them and will weigh 30+kg each. Then all the motors for things like adjustable steering columns blah blah blah. And did I mention the sound deadening so you can even hear an ambulance right behind you even if you 7.2surround sound is off?
    • Ah ok, yeah it should be flat, I believe the r34 battery tray has these 3 bumps in them they makes it line up and everything is flat, don't see how it would tilt if everything is secured.
    • Agreed it actively wants to kill you which I love driving fast cars slow is my stick
    • Awesome! I was thinking S14 since they are longer. I'll give those a shot. Thanks for the input!
