If the adjustment is from left to right then moving the bolt to the outside of the car should reduce negative camber.

I thought the same so I tried it but the negative increased by .9 degree.Dont figure.Thanks for the input.

You may find you require offset bushes in upper arms to correct camber on the front. I wasn't aware of any camber adjustment on the rear. Are you referring to the eccentric bolts on the inner of the lower arms? If so, these are for toe adjustment.

The alignment of the shock mounting will have no effect on front camber, this is set by the upper & lower control arms. Did your Teins come with instructions? I'd refer to them for correct top plate orientation, or compare to the original equipment.

      Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in

      Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.

      Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
