Do I need camber plates for front GC?

[Adrian_Visser]

I recently bought a used GC kit with fairly low rate springs and bilstein shocks. I don't plan on going very low seeing as I am dropping a 24v in at the moment and don't have much oil pan clearance.

Will the GC springs sit on the stock upper spring perches or are GC camber plates a must?

Did you buy the whole assembly or just the coilover conversion? You can use either the stock mount or GC plates. For the stock mount you will need a centering spacer (no sure what it is called).

The basic GC kit comes with 2.5" upper spring perches that will mate to your stock upper mounts.

The GC springs will not work on a stock upper mount without the supplied perch.

Damn I don't have camber plates or gc upper perches. Thanks for the info.

I will be selling UUC camber plates soon and i have two sets of 2-1/2" spring upper perches. two are brand new GC (i bought a conversion kit but am GC using camber plates which come with the special perches mentionedabove)
and the other two came from a used generic coil over kit but match in dimensions to the GC ones

I may be interested when you have these FS. It's too bad, I would like to throw the coilovers on now while my car is apart in the garage getting an engine transplant.
