I am going more for a drag racing setup but I plan on also doing some autocross since Bristol is gonna open it up this summer at street fights. So, I should just leave it alone and not worry about it. Thanks...just saved me a bunch of money and a pita time trying to fix it.

Ok just got the setup for the camber kit writen in autocad so now just to make a sample.
there is four upsides to this kit,
. it uses a strut mount bearing that every shop can get if needed replaced
. it's very easy to install
. you get almost an inch of adjustment and thats just from the prototype, there may be more after
. the most important is that it is very inexpensive
the size an bolt pattern is differnt between the lanos and lemans. i'll build a kit for the lemans based on thi kit shortly.

the lemans and the nubira are the same.Efrain A. wrote:strange because ive being told that i only need to drill the 3rd hole on the strut base in order to fit lanos top mounts.
update: i made a sample of the "inexpensive" kit (a kit that uses an OE type mount) and things went well, just a but of modification needed. the kit should run about $200 at this point. there will be some cutting to the strut mount "bucket" needed.
the more expensive kit will be like the one stefan made and need no cutting. the cost as of now will be around $350-$400.

i'm continuing to work on a high quality 'budget' camber kit using an 'OE' type strut mount bearing, about $200.
i'm also working with a company called Ground Control (ground-control.com) to create a high performance camber/caster kit using thier high end sliders, bearings and bushings. the cost will be upwards of $300 but i don't see why this custom kit from groung control would be more.
so at this point i basically need to poll the forum to see if the 'budget' is worth producing or if the high end kit is price well enough to just produce it.
thanks for the input!
