s14 front camber issues

[kidbandikoot]

ok ive resorted to this... prolly shlda started here anyhow but w.e.
ive pushd my plates as far back as they can go for neg. camber.
but i still end up with positive so much so its going thru tires faster than i want to admit.... now i have godspeed type-rs fully adj. and blah blah blah ive heard and read all the bashing on these.. i just need to figure out y the hell this is happening ... now i know i can go buy the lower arms to correct..but my thing is y the hell is it doin this in the first place... anybody run into similar problems :duh: ... thanx

Are you sure your coilovers aren't installed backwards? I've seen it happen before.. and that might explain somethings. Other than that, I blame the fact they are Godspeed. :D

[kidbandikoot]

yes there installed correctly ......

1. Adjusting them all the way IN (towards the engine) give you negative camber

2. Have you ever adjusted your front TOE? Toe kills tires super fast, not so much camber. Camber wears at an even rate, not prematurly. For every inch IMO, you gain roughly an 1/8th total toe. This is bad

thanx codyace.... ima be changing tire set-up soon soo ill have to go check the alignment settings aswell..

Just curious, but I'm swapping out my DF210 springs for something smoother. I haven't been able to source a set of OEM S14 springs yet but came across a set of Tein H-Techs which lower the car .7/.4". Would that be a problem camber wise or can I go ahead and ditch the RUCA's?

Yes, as codyace stated...check your toe specs on the alignment. Also, how is the height? Are you maxed out on the drop? You may need to raise it slightly until you get the arms to correct your alignment.
