hey there, been searching but couldnt find anything though whats the max camber on the fronts and rears of a r32 gtst stock arms.

also while im on the topic of suspension, are r33 lca's a straight fit into an r32 model or is there any modifying?

cheers guys,

I don't know the stock camber on the front and rear at stock height. It varies depending on the height of your car a little.

My car is on TEIN Superstreet suspension wound as low as they go, and the fronts are reading about 1degree, twenty something minutes each side.

The rear on the other hand is a bit over two and a half. I'd really love some adjustable arms to fix this up.

The R33 front LCA's I've been told will fit, and will give you a little bit extra lock and also a bit more camber. Yet to try it out though.

as said camber will depend on ride height

im pretty sure std front will be around 1.25 deg neg

r33 LCA do fit straight up to r32 i had 2.5 deg -ve once they went on with a ride height about 345mm i think

rear you add camber pretty quick as u lower the car

cool thanks for your input guys, helps heaps! yeah i just realised the height of the car factors in aswell.

im running r33 lcas and have around 2.5 degrees at the front. The rear is set about the same height and is at 3.5 degrees. This is with all non adjustable arms..

nice, got any pictures if you have taken any?

i have r33 control arms... they are straight fit. they can give anywhere from 2.5 to 3 deg neg camber, depending on height.

the stock arms are not adjustable, how it is is how it is... and camber will be should be neutral at standard height.

to change the camber you'll need adj arms or offset bushes..

alot of people are running r33 lcas as they push the track out 15mm more, allowing wider wheels, and more lock..

sydneykid says these hurt bump steer and doesnt recommend doing it, instead change the camber at the top arm only, or set the the top arm 15mm out to push everything out and then adjust camber from there.

sorry meant ball joint.. the 33 joint is thicker than the hub on the 32 so just press out the 33 ball joint and replace it with the 32 one... i have fitted 2 sets of these to both my current car and my first 32.. i figured this out the first time when i realised it wouldnt fit

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
