well i dont have 32 but GTS4 is same with taking transfer case out

its only a day job so drop car off in morning and get it back that afternoon from memory ive paid about $400-450 for labour from Kents Brake and Clutch ive been happy with there service and knowledge of AWD cars

my clutch was a cheap xtreme HD clutch of $400ish thats with discount from Darren's mate Brad Fox

Noltec subframe bushes are good, i would imagine that labour would be a bit, would "guess" at least 400ish

I done it my self and now i can drop the subframe pretty damn quick and getting the old bushes out isnt that bad after you done it a few times.

cheers guys for the help. so it wasnt as expensive asi first thought.

with the subframe i would get my brother and a mate(both mechanics) but i just dont have the room at my house. im from VH they both live in adelaide

NPz James :D hopefully gave you another option as Kent's as a installer they do all there own machining in house too

and Xtreme clutches used to send all there customers to them to install because Xtreme don't have those facilities yet.

but i still when and saw Brad Fox and tell him your Deluxe's buddy for a good discount then take it to kents for install or the installer of your choice boostworx charges similar if not the same

    • 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.
