camber link length vs change
I'm already running the AWR/mazdatrix individual camber links and want to be able to go to full zero on rear camber for drag duty. I'd therefore like to cutdown and reweld my stock subframe link to change the range that the AWRs can operate within.
After much searching the only comments on length I've found were that folks building their own adjustable units can't shorten by more than 0.5-1.0" inch. How much shortening of the subframe link results in how much camber change?
Ideally we could get a bunch of results that look like: "I shorted 0.375 inches and saw +1 degree (-2.5 -> -1.5 deg) change"

I bought my mazdatrix style bar used.. So im not sure on exact spec's, but..
Its the stock piece, they guy had taken to a machine shop, where they cut it in section's and tapped the ends, and threaded them together with two nuts to stop movement.
Its really simple. I would try that before cutting and rewelding, imho.
I would probably make it adjustable from, say, stock length, to 1'', to 1.5'' shorter.
Hope this helps
