Car "hops" left to right vice versa

[st165]

Hey guys. i have an s14 , and recently i installed new rear camber arms. i noticed in semi bad roads (Manila) my car hops or shakes very bad at low speeds 30kph. what are the possible problems? can toe or allignment be the problem or is it normal in cambered cars(-3 only)? thank you.

-3 camber doesnt fuck up your that THAT bad. but you are explaining the exact same thing as i had, wich dissapeared when getting adjustable toe arms.

Sounds like you need an alignment.

After installing your arms....you will definitely need to get an alignment. I had the same issue. The shop i went to set my toe waay too aggressive, so everytime the rear would compress, the rear end would wobble in a way that did not seem right + it ate through my brand new tires in 800 miles.

I just installed the Isis arm kit on my car and set my alignmet to OEM spec.
My car is pretty low.


No problems of any sort.

Try to set your alignment as close to oem as possible.

I thought this was common sense...

Wrong... Toe out in the rear makes the car skate around. Toe in will be more stable, but have a little more tire scrub. You want it as close to 0 as possible.

In the front, toe out will kill a set of tires very quick, a little tiny bit of toe in is what most alignment shops will put on the front. I have mine set to 0 though.

just be sure you have your alignment done before rain weather.

your rear toe is completely fucked. you have your back end "skating", ive had that before and its sketchy shit to even daily around.

I hope you have toe arms to go with that RUCA.

yep alignment

Hey guess what, you need more arms and that other thing

Ph yeah, alignment!

Why is this a thread? I miss when people got bombed for asking stupid questions. And xoxide, what do you consider toe in and toe out? Are you saying the leading edge of the tire being pointed in is considered toe in?
