For those that either autocross or track your car the question is which is the better way to go to increase front wheel negative camber. With PASM sport plus I have 0.9 negative camber and I would like to go to 1.5-2.0 so which is better

A) GT3 upper strut mounts ie camber plates

or

B) GT3 lower control arms


I have had people far more knowledgeable than me make a case for either.

Rss tarmac LCAs wil do it, just for front axle
Upper mounts from gt3 are also helpful but it will cost more to do, if you decide to replace your shocks then do that, if not - LCAs are the usual wy to go

LCA's....will give you a wider front track and more available front camber adjustment.

Thanks Mike, after our chat I'm leaning that way but just covering all bases and ideas before I commit . Thanks again, I enjoyed talking with you.

Here is the print out of my current alignment. The front camber is the max we can get with sport PASM and no other changes. I am targeting 1.5 to 2.0 as my goal
Looking for crisper turn in and a more planted front end plus of course good rear tracking ie a balanced and improved coordinated system

I would imagine the rear toe is a function of a lower vehicle ( sport PASM) and non adjustable toe links

Since I only want to do this once and the car is primarily a daily driver with some autocross possible I am considering lower control arms GT3 or RSS and possibly the RSS adjustable rear link kit for toe adjustment Comments from experts like "Mdrums" and others are appreciated

got to work on shrinking my attachments SORRY

Rear toe with stock toe arms is adjusted on the eccentric bolts.

keep teaching and I will keep learning, you are never too old

Amen to what F4 said. I just turned 65 and really enjoy learning more about our wonderful cars. The nice thing about being older, and I can't say there are a lot of benefits - lol, is I now have the time and the money to enjoy this sport even more.

Now keep in mind that if you do modifications to the suspension for Autox, then you will be running in the improved or modified class, thus competing with cars that are practically setup for this type of event.

That is the reason that i am keeing my car with completely stock components but with a fairly aggressive alignment...
