Default front camber

hiya, anyone know what the absolute values, or range of the camber eccentrics are on the front of a 993 ?

or put another way, if i have the eccentric tightened so that the upright shifts as inboard as is possible (max camber as possible), roughly how much negative camber will the car be runnig ?


cheers

It depends on ride height too.... but at near RS spec height, I think my old car was a little less than -2deg when fully maxed out.

Set at RoW Sport height on Bilstien HD shocks, I am maxed out at neg 1.8/1.9. Might be able to get bit more if I were to egg out the slotted hole on the strut.

BTW, there aren't camber eccentrics on the front; it's just a slotted hole in the strut. Most I could get was -1.9 deg.

I haven't heard of slotting that hole... have people done this?

-1.50 to -1.55 degrees was the most I could get from the front of my yellow car -- at ROW height.

The majority of the cars will be in the -1.4 - 1.5 range. Now you can screw around with the eccentric and get to about -2 degrees.
