Just installing front and rear adjustable camber arms on my 33 GTS-t. Just wondering what a good set-up would be for a) track work and b) daily driving (tyre life wear).

As I have pretty good tyres I was thinking about having 2 different setups as to not wear the inside's out.

Also would it be actually worth it or just go somewhere in between ? Is it really going to slash my lap times by say having -1 compared to -3 or -4 camber ? pros / cons ? I am prob only going to do 3 or 4 track days per year...

thanks

If tyre life wasnt a concern I would go a -3 to -4 camber on the front and 0 to -1 on the back but since tyre life is a issue here maybe try -2 on the front.

Did you get adj castor and traction rods aswell?

Also what is your purpose on the track grip, drift?

Set it up for street and save your tyres I would think between 0.5°-1.0° neg is plenty. When you get to the track then dial in some proper camber but do so checking tyre temps.

      Fuse taps are perfectly fine to use, especially when you're adding stuff for your own car, and so long as you're being smart about it. IE, don't throw a 30amp circuit, onto a circuit that is only a small circuit. It's best to add a small circuit, to one that is already quite large. Oh, and make sure you're not going to blow the fuses that are further upstream too! I dislike their use in other applications, such as alarms, telematics/tracking devices etc, as it's far too easy for someone to unplug them and render a system useless. Those sorts of devices I go for wiring in quite secretively.

      Given it is temporary, I bought a  cheapy gauge mount (which has become enflattened) which I will screw into the existing phone mount Also a first for me; given this is a temporary install I could not think of any reason not to use one of those "add a fuse" thingies to source the battery and IGN power. I had always figured they were pretty dodgy but having a good look at them I think they are a valid option for sourcing power from an existing source without cutting

      Finally for now, a bit more work on the transmission temp gauge. I was wondering how Raceworks do a gauge for $100 that autometer want $500 for. No idea about the accuracy of course, but they have cut a few corners that made things hard.  First one I mentioned above, the sender is physically difficult to fit and doesn't work with their own adapters (the extra fittings I used to get the sender into a hose cost more than the whole gauge, lucky I had stuff in the shed) Second, the temp sender wires are way too short. They are shown as 2.7m on the box and I know my routing was long from navigator headlight to driver's firewall back to centre console, but I had to lengthen them by about 2m total - 2 joins in each wire. Also, same with the supplied power loom, they needed about an extra 1m to get the fuse box where I sourced power. Another join in each wire since one end wasn't supplied terminated. I know they could argue that the wires might be long enough depending on situation, but when you consider parts and particularly labour, it would be a very expensive cheap gauge if you can't do the work yourself. And, only a small issue....but it would have been nice if they remembered to tap a tread onto *both* spacers they supplied for the bracket....I haven't had to use the M4 tap often!
