Okay guys cute story
I was looking for the camber adjustment I thought was in the rear end of my car and can't seem to find anything and I was wondering if anyone could blatantly point out the bolt to me because I didn't see anything that I thought looked like adjustment
Cheers in advance :)
 
you can't properly adjust it yourself or you'll throw out the toe and everything else badly. you just need to take it to as shop and tell them to max it out and make it even each side. they'll know what to do
 
you can only get like max -3* camber anyway which is really nothing so you may as well just max it out

No no. Das heaps yo
 
its best to take it to an alignment shop and have it aligned properly. i've never understood why people want excessive camber when A)it ruins your tires B)you lose handling due to the fact there is less tire on the road C)It appears you are too cheap for a camber kit like most honda boys are in the states.
But some people like the look *shrugs*.

They have up to -3deg of camber adjustment from factory equipment. and our "camber kit" is camber arms. Not quite sure why we are cheap?
 
the perfect camber makes any car look unf worthy, my old man's GT-R got his professionally done and tuned etc. and not only does it handle better, but it looks damn fine mm mmmmm.
 
its not an uncommon story in the states for honda civic owners to get cheap ebay coilovers and install them and lower the car without getting it aligned. naturally the camber is off by alot and the stereotype comes from that. i dont encouraging mimicking that look. but that is what i meant by it appears you are too cheap. i reread my original post and i felt i should clear that up. its not an intended insult. either you have people that are too broke to buy the parts to properly adjust the camber, or you have the other end where they know exactly what they are doing and prefer it when driving down the track. but aligning a car for daily driver use and aligning it for track use are too very different beasts. most people feel they can have their cake and eat it too, and thats when you get people wearing out their tires prematurely driving down the highway to get to work in their "race car".
 
By all means I don't think I've taken the cheap alternative since I bought decent coilovers with front camber adjustment knowing there was a little bit to work with in the rear anyways it only needs to be a few degrees so I can go a little lower than I am now.... Thankyou for your input though :)

You can get pretty good alignments using a piece of string. It wont be hekkas race car spec but it will be good enough to save tires and go down the road straight. Good for ppl who change heights and stuff alot.
