Update part 6
well i fitted the camber plates, i still need to reinforce the tower with a piece of 5 mm metal.. so this is just the basic set up .

I can drop it about 2' lower but how do i steer then haha these are 17' 40 245's

They are Borbet A's
i have the center caps but ill be running them without.. gives a more racy look i think.
I do not need flares for my setup sofar the wheel stay in the well, i just need to remove the little lip or roll it, for safety.

then roll them lips!! where do ya get wheels like those, i need some extra 17's for auto-x and the race car. so 2 sets. they prolly cost a grand per set knowing my luck. seems nobody else here really cares aboot ultimate handling?!? ever get that impression? ill be trying a simmilar setup on my track car. i got the top camber plates just like yours. i just gotta figure out the upper bearing part. prolly simple, you explained it b4, i just never clued in without pix

There seems to be some opinion that the S130 won't handle so why bother. But with the stock suspension in good condition they do handle well, trouble is the stock suspension is usually in bad shape after 25 or so years and it shows.

On the rear i run cusco s13 plates.. Useless for the trailing arm design, but i found a good deal on ebay. Cheaper than pillow ball plates.. witch they essentially are, also they fit with no adaptation.
Actually i only use these on the rear to loose some extra height of the rear struts, and thus giving more lowering/raising adjustability.

hmmm.... i like that camber plate idea looks pretty simple, well, for the most part lol.... and what kind of steering wheel is that? is it adjustable length/detatchable? just curious since i will need to be replacing mine.
