Looking to purchase some front and rear camber kits for my 33 GTS-t.

After some feedback on Whiteline kits (have just spoken to a workshop & got some quotes very reasonable $$$) and anything else people have used or are using on their rides.

I already have suspension wise - coilovers, strut bars & sway bars.

Any other suggestions to shore up my handling would be greatly appreciated!

(Hicas lock kit is already on my list)

Cheers dudes.

castor rods adjust the castor.

i run the whiteline eccentric bushes. front camber, front castor and rear camber - seems fine so far, reasonably comfortable on the street not much NVH. time will tell how they hold up, however the bushes are supposed to last longer than the arms on the roads.

i have taken the car out to do some track work, only a motorkhana at this stage and with the right alignment it's been perfect

I have some whiteline stuff, seems to be ok....but I could only get about 1.9 neg camber up front with the group buy, not enough so I got dave - TO4GTR to make some "adjustments" :P and now have -4 up front

Im actually looking at replacing most of my whiteline stuff anyway...

i'm not sure if that was a little tongue in cheek or what, i was kinda expecting you to google it yourself. however castor is basically the angle of the steering pivot.

an image is easier to explain

agree with evil_weevil on this one, i could only get around 1.5-1.7 camber up front, which is totally fine for a street setting. i tried to go a little more hardcore and couldn't do so.

i will be changing away from the whiteline stuff also next time around. it really depends on how hardcore you want to go.

for a mild street setting with the occasional track work i would personally suggest whiteline stuff.

if you want to go a bit hardcore and don't mind the extra discomfort and regular maintenance go the arms.

replacing mine with....well, pretty much replacing the springs, castor and the camber parts.

To what?

Dont know!

Im still looking into that.

If your car is a daily and with an odd track day in a blue moon, go the whiteline, but for me now, I need to upgrade as I just dont feel the package I have is good full time track use.

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
