would these increase scrub radius? or simply place the coilover at an awkward angle. and posisbly cause bigger issues with caster, kpi, and or camber gain through the steering range?
i ask this because i am thinking about putting my s13 megan tracks on an s14 that i may be getting, and i also have 25mm extended lca's it would be really cool if this would simply just help bring down the negative camber some with the extended lca's, if this will work, i would rather buy these extended s14 brackets, than drill the wholes for the s13 out, and just in case someone feels the need to through there opinion in, i know megans are garbage, we dont need to go over this, and i have pbm's for le track car, these guys are for use on what i intend to be a daily drifter, and i pucked them up almost new for $500

Thanks for the link, these are exactly what i need ...
they are used with "weak offset" wheels, to prevent the tyre from rubbing on the spring. It does not affect anything but your camber adjustment
range, because it offsets your coilover body toward the inner side of the car. I.E as you extend your lower arms, you end up with a camber adjustment range going more toward negative.
Also they are the perfect thing to use on an S13 with swapped S14 knucles, as the bolts on the S14 upright are 14mm instead of the 12mm for the S13. And it allows you to run camber bolts, which are better than changing camber on the hat (as this changes SAI at the same time).
I am going to get them, i wanted to mod mine to get the same result (i need wheel spacers right now to make it fit and i hate that) but for that kind of money i think i wont bother.
