Hi,
I drive a 910 bluebird with a standard solid axle rear end in it but use s13 coilovers and strut braces etc. It handles well but could be better. A common mod is converting to a R30 independant rear end. Im keen to do this but i heard the camber is fixed.
Is there any way to give the rear end some camber? a few degrees negative.
Thanks,
G
Your right, just looked at my R30 skyline. There is the arm from the body to wheel hub and it solid, as in no adjustment what so ever. So you'll have to put up with 0negative camber. Unless you could find someone silly enough to cut the arm and weld it back on an angle. Here is a pic i took a few years ago when i forst got my R30..

hmm just come across this thread and its exactly what i'm doing right now with my R31 skyline shell. TIG welding ALL (yes all) the seams and joins of the body. Though i'm only welding in the cabin area, as front and rear has strut braces going on. TIG is better than mig as it moulds the joins together rather than adding to them.
The only downside to welding most seams in your car, is you go through a lot of gas, and gas refills are around the $90-110 mark.
And yes, it is really easy to blow huge holes in the body if ya not careful.....practice on something first !!
I'll have to take pictures and post up my R31 body.
