          www.vorshlag.com ?

          Another vote for them here- much stouter design than the GC plates, and they sell different spring perches for just about every spring/strut combo. So if you want to switch to coilovers later on, you can send back your "stock" spring perches for a credit towards the new ones. Great company to do business with, too. Ground Control, eh, not so much.

          Kmac plates are a fucking joke.

            neg 3.5 degrees driving home can be a bit annoying when you are exhausted from the day.

            did you align the suspension when you dropped the camber down? do you even know if your camber is equal on both sides? you might be running -5 on one side an -3 on the other.

            please don't tell me "well the marks on the camber plate are even"

            if you ever did get your suspension properly aligned you would note that even though the camber is set equally, the struts sit at different positions on the camber plate.

            not worth it to spend proper money having the car alignment done right, then fuck it all up by dumping it down for an auto-x
