hi guys,

just wondering if R34's have factory camber adjustments front and rear? i have a feeling it's front no and rear yes?

My old 17's had their inside front tyres chopped out big time (hence the 2 x free tyres in my for sale thread), and i don't want to repeat with my new 18's... but i have a feeling that traction tyres told me they did what they could up front (when i got an alignment) but said there wasn't a factory camber adjustment? I don't know if this is front or rear or both...

i don't want to go pay for another alignment for my new 18's just for them to turn around and tell me they did their best, but couldn't do it properly... but still pay please

cheers,

daniel

You are right...no adjustment for fronts and a little bit of adjustment at the rears. Depending on how low you go. If I remember SK's advice, recommended height settings for GTT is around 350mm fronts and 345mm rears measured from center of wheel to guard. Any lower and you will need a camber kit for front n rear.

Check out SK's Bilstein GB kit thread, all the info is in there...

my car isn't lowered at all, but will i still need the kits if i want to get it aligned properly? I don't know why the fronts were chopping out on the inside as the car is stock height, but i def don't want a repeat on my new set of 18's.

if your car is not lowered at all, then you definately don't need camber kits. Take it to a proper suspension place to get your allignment looked at....not just some tyre shop..somethings not right there if you have uneven tyre wear.

it's official, 2nd place now that's said they can't do anything for me on the fronts. Need a camber kit. The front right is running -2 degree camber, and this is a car with practical brand new tyres, 18' rims, and stock ride height.

thinking of getting the front camber kits from the GB thread, but it's only +/- 1 degree. I really don't want to go chopping the insides of these new tyres though..

i had the whole suspension checked, bushes are fine, shocks/springs fine, no leaks etc... Is there anything common that could be causing me to be running -2 degree camber up front???
