i bought a set of intrax lowering springs for my 89 gxl that knocked it 1.8 inches & threw some 17 inch racing hart c2's, the result...very bad rear camber. do they make camber kits for my car? if not, is there a way to correct the camber? thanx

 

You need an adjustable camber rod. Lots of places sell them, try the RX-7 Store (banner at the top here) first. Be sure to get one that is adjustable without being disconnected... the other way is a pain.

just curious..but how hard might the install be on that... i did the suspension myself (the springs)..any idea?

 

Two bolts.

It's not hard at all.

However, I doubt it'll get you back to 0 camber, just won't be sooo much.

any other suggestions on where to find this adjustable camber rod?...the rx7 store doesnt have that.

The lower the car, the more rear camber. The more camber removed with an adjuster, the closer the subframe gets to the unibody. It will bang on the unibody if it's too close. You can dent the unibody and then you might not hear the subframe banging on the unibody.

When I lowered my car, my 60' time went from 1.9 to 2.2. Quarter mile time went from 12.2 to 12.4, even though I had added 20 rwhp and my speed went from 114 to 117 mph. I get wheel hop now with the lowered car.

 

eibach sells an adjustment kit it's 30 dollars and it adjusts 1.5 degrees. the one's from all the other places i found were 100 or more. check horsepowerfreaks.com they have it

 

that eibach kit is for the front. you won't get 1.5 outa it. it says 1 max but you will hit the tire on the strut after about .5 I paid $24 for mine... then threw them out after having them in for a short while. Crap.

 

i found the adjustment rod for 76 bux at mazda motorsports..its the one u can adjust while its still on the car...still waiting for it to get here from cali.
