hi guys,

i have excessive tyre wear on the inside of my tyres. especially on the left or passenger side of the car. what do i need to get so that my camber can be adjusted front and back? i have heard that adjustable bushes can be bought? or is it better to go for an adjustable arm? where is the best place to source these parts?

i think they said that the camber was at -2 degrees.

thanks for your help if this has been covered sum where else jus let me know thanks

FRONT: I'd recommend adjustable upper arms. I used the JJR dog-bone style on my R32 GTR. They looked well made, and I had no problems with them at all. The offset bushes for the front are horrendously expensive and wear quickly.

REAR: either adjustable upper arms or offset bush kits. If going arms, you need to replace both upper arms (normally called the upper control arm and traction rod) to avoid bump steer problems.

bushes are a bit cheaper and work OK on the rear - again one bush needs to be fitted to each upper arm to avoid problems with bump steer, but don't offer alot of correction. expect about 0.75 to 1 degree of camber correction from an offset bush kit. you can use two sets of bushes if needed and put them in both ends of each arm, but by then you've paid almost as much as adjustable arms are worth - probably more if you're not fitting them yourself!

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
