Default Camber correction kit

Hi guys,

not sure if this is the right subforum, but here goes.

My car is lowered, and I can't get the camber within specs on the back.

Now I wonder what the possibilities are, I know comptech has a camber correction kit, but I the only information I find is this picture



I don't know how it works, were it's mounted and if it works fine.

Anybody has experience with these parts? Where can I buy them? (company must be willing to ship to europe)

Now I've seen on the website of AJR that there are a lot of parts from J's racing.
But to be honest, I don't know what they all do...
you got the roll center adjuster, the offset camber joints, the pillowball bump steer kit,....
On the other hand I also see the T1R front anti bumpsteerkit and the T1R back anti bumpsteerkit...

The problem is, I don't recognise the anti bumpsteerkit from J's when I compare it to the T1R version...

What do I want?
I want to correct my camber but keep the car low, so it has to be low but handle like a gocart/sportscar/like it should be.
I understood the bumpsteer is a dangerous thing being low... so maybe I'll combine installing them... now the T1R are simple spacers in the front, but the J's look different, maybe they have an extra function?

Can anybody explain me what all these parts do?
Maybe some links/installed pictures/....?
Sollutions that Bulletproof offers are offcourse welcome as well...

thx in advance

the comptech kit is an adjustable ball joint that goes into the upper a arms. it replaces the balljoint there and it has a slide adjustment for camber. Suspension Products Company(SPC) also make the same style kit.

the Bumpsteer correction will correct for arm angles so that when you hit a bump the car doesnt pull to one side.

I run 1.5 front and 2.5 rear camber daily driving but put the toe specs back to stock so the tire wear is not bad.

any reason that you never see those spc camber joints on the forums? seems like spc is known for quality stuff, they just don't say j's on them.

Graphtuner, how low is your car.

I plan to lower soon and would like to know where that point is that you seemed to have reached.

I am going to dump my car like its hot! (Megan coils)

is this the stuff?

http://www.spcperformance.com/PROD_DIR/SPC...md2=67220&cmd3=

it sucks that you can't mount the 16" on the rear with these

can you easily combine this with anti bumpsteerkits?

@S2Kstuntin : don't ask me how many mm or inches... but this is how he looks now
