oz weather, takes the feed from the BOM, and shows BOM maps without having to navigate through BOM's archaic website.

What kind of camber settings would be best for a street car that enjoys a few twisties every now and again?

-1.5 degrees all around?

I don't know much about that kinda stuff so i'm off to do some more research.

you're better off running camber setting which will improve lifespan of tyres. In this case, you should aim for about -1.5deg on front and about -0.5 on rear. The rear you will want as neutral as possible. This will depend on height of car and the range of your camber setup.

Ive got two rear camber bush kits on the rear, best could get with my height was -1 degree

Talk to your suspension workshop regarding best setup. I recommend Traction Tyres in Rowville. They will point you in the right direction based on what you plan to use your car for.

More tyre on the road the better. Eg billys 4.5 deg camber on front would make te car understeer like a bitch when pushed on corners

The more front negative camber the better. As you turn through corners, car leans onto the outside wheel, enforcing positive camber. By dialing in negative camber, the positive camber occuring through the turn balances this out and applies more tyre to the road. Hence better grip/traction through the turn. So, if anything, less understeering.

The rear you would like minimum camber, as to provide maximum grip during acceleration (more grip to the road). However, having too little negative camber and going through a corner will create positive camber and may cause you to spin out if accelerating due to the smaller tyre footprint.

Basic explanation, so dont shoot me down with specifics

Camber = serious business

that explanation only works for RWD as well, cos AWD geometry is completely different.

Not that Kris is ever gonna get anything about camber, cos all he's interested in is going in a straight line from a traffic light :(

Thanks for all the comments ppl :(

Nankangs..?

Any good, I thought they were some pov pack tyres like NEXEN's, which I have used before...

They are alright for now, pretty grippy. Not that I care, they are rears and dont last long anyway :/

haha true that. Basing my jibbajabba off my car, awd cars go speak to your suspension workshop.

hmmm If i get GTR brembo's on the front, then I wont be able to run r32 stockies on the front anymore :(

Might have to settle for some R33 GTST calipers

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.

      Cas issue

      It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
