Rear camber?

Been toying with the idea of having some rear negative camber going on....but how would i get this done?

Personally i think it'd look mad as f**k sat with some / | | \ action going on

Need some fatter wheels i think to pull it off

sod that,shiznit wheels + camber
BOOM

Proper way - Camber Shims

Ghetto way - Washers

Need to remove the rear stub axle and space out the lower edge using the shims/washers.

On the front you need adjust it using the strut to hub mounting bolts. Not sure how it is on the Mk2 but on the Mk1 you have a cam bolt to adjust it.

Say goodbye to the inside of your tyres

ive had unwated camber on the front for a while...due to a VERY loose hub nut hahaha
Looked cool as f**k,but i want it on the back
Shims it is then

Like this you mean?

on the front of a mk2 you replace the top 19mm head strut bolt with special ones that are 18mm an narrower than original to give a bit of movement..

The bolts are genuine parts, dont know what they cost but cant be that much for 2 bolts

Cymro them are some mean shims lol, where you get them? Custom made?

LOL
not that much camber...just enough for a cheeky little "stance" as such
that amount is just silly!

Right
after seeing whats needed with these shims...i'm opting for the camber bolts for the rear as i dont want that much camber as it is...now where the hell can i get some?

for the rear jus do what BigGR5 sed an use some washers behind the bottom of the stub axle, easy, very cheap to do an if done properly not unsafe either.

Threadlock always helps make sure bolts dont come loose which is the only real worry with it.

Front bolts if yours hasnt already got em are genuine only i think. Both are nice an cheap to do

they belong to a mate, custom made by him.

just to show how mad the guy is:

he's put an aitr filter...on his air fitler...so his filterd air is filterd....LOL
thats mad,fair play
