hi,
Wanna dial in some serious front camber on the e21, have seen adjustable top mounts but wondering if anyone is using them?
Also is there any other way to get front camber...?
Cheers
Arron

the other way is to lower the car modify the front subframe, fabricate some new strut tops with offset mouting holes.

I guess you are concerend about looks than handling.

I use K=macs and RPM but nowhere as extreme as Mr Jasons.

to be blunt here, in my current financial sit. concidering the other stuff i need to buy/sort out.... theyd have to be sub £100 to tempt me at this point.

id also bought some adjustable bolts with the eccentric washers, like the rear wishbone mount ones infact. guna do the the lower arm mount on the subframe.
widen the front track and add a touch of camber along with some all important castor hopefully.

I'll email or call them and see what they'll do on a buy of 10 sets. I can't see a reduction of 50% being on the cards though tbh. Anyway, I'll mail them now.
