What is your alignment like?

[Bishop]

-2.3* Camber
10* Caster
0 Toe in the front.

-2.6* Camber
3/32" total Toe in the rear.

I'm pretty happy cause the initial readings were totally boned and it's apparent now why my tires were getting eaten up... However, they claimed they couldn't get the -2.5* in the front I wanted, without dropping the struts, and they only left 2 bolts in the camber plate on the passenger side.

I wish I had less rear camber.. my car understeers w. camber plates up front and HR race springs.

Unless you have a silly amount of rear camber, more than desired probably isn't the cause of the oversteer. Rear toe has a greater affect than camber.

That said, what sways are you using and is the rear sway set as loose as it will go?

My car understeers.. not oversteers. :)
I'm installing the weld in rtab kit so it'll all be sorted soon.

these cars naturally understeer......



1)try thicker rear spring pads..to raise her a bit...and 2)play w/ pressures.

Ive heard alot of issues w/ similiar kits not holding specs.

3) and put in poly rtabs.....

I think these kits are really not needed in most fresh / maintained e 30s.....unless of course you are slammed to the ground.

I run HR race......and understeer is a mild issue....but she does tend towards it.........


if you track the car, then go in hard and use the gas/brake pedal to steer and induce more o/steer and rotation....
