R30/R31 Front control arms .

[Boof]

Its been said that a couple of cable ties around the rear damper pistons will move up to show squat height when under maximum acceleration or power load . This is where you need neutral camber and toe to put the most rubber on the road ie largest contact patch . Once this is known I suppose enough bags of cement in the boot at aignment time should re create it .

The only real issue i can see with trying to get static +ve camber for maximum traction is the issue of lack of grip whilst cornering...If you go to far +ve whilst static you'll loose alot of rear end grip, so its a case of you've gotta comprimise between the two...Mines that stiff in the rear that camber doesn't change, its set -ve (not sure how much) but i don't really have traction issues at this stage yet either...Time will tell when i wind some boost into it and start making some power

Hehehe Thats why I am looking into a R31 crossmemeber with rack and pinion steering and making engine mounts from there. 

Can anyone else tell me if a r31 cross member fits??? (or else it will be all custom) I want rack and peanut damn it. It's not like everything else in my car isnt custom it just would be nice if something fitted good for a change might have to go to u-pull-it for a measure.  :chairshot

Apparently late model 280zx were rack and pinion (for 8 months!!) and the x-member and rack can be used in R30 without to much drama.

Can anyone confirm this?.
