Hay everyone!!

I have to ask where was everyone today (especially to JET-33!).

Just came back from Calder Park Rwy. and it was F***IN mad. I was helpin out wit the dirt events and meet up with only 3 SAU members. It was crazy!! It could have been better if more cars entered. There were at leat 500, but with such a huge event and soooo many thing to do it looked slightly empty.

I had a ball, even though i was an offical, and saw a couple of 'lines and one silvia (from this forum) go sick in the motorcana (on dirt) and grab a flag, WELL DONE people!

Next time i might take my own car and have a good thrash, seeing other people absollutely lovin it, made me wish i was an entrant. NEXT TIME!

I think this will be run again later this year, so when it does i will keep you all posted!

c ya

JET-33 Sorry to hear that bud, i would would have loved to see your car. Especially on the dirt (hehe).

trbs Sorry mate. I was an offical on the day. I got there at 7am and left at 6:30pm. Did you see the motorcana and grab a flag (the only two grass events), as my friends and i were runnin those events. I was the one wearing the white, red and black shirt with OFFICAL written on the back, the other 3 were in grey offical polo shirts. I introduced myself to every 'line and nissan driver that entered. WHAT WAS YOUR CAR DOIN IN THE PARKING LOT!! YOU COULD HAVE HAD SO MUCH MORE FUN IF YOU ENTERED.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
