X-Brace & Rear Camber Plate?

KUEDA · 05-12-2008, 10:34 PM

This may be a newb question....I just installed an X-brace today on my 07 Sti and was wondering if it is possible to run Vorshlag camber plates in the rear with the x-brace installed?? I am in the process of ordering coilovers and was going to order Vorshlag camber plates front and rear. If I cannot run rear camber plates, what are my other options? Camber bolts? Ball joints?

I'm running Vorshlags with an X-Brace. Your only trouble is going to be plate adjustment, as it is difficult if not impossible with the X-Brace installed. I have my rear camber set at -1.5 degrees and that's where I intend to leave it. I also have camber bolts in the rear (used for inner strut clearance, long story

).

I actually have TiC SSTs installed as well, and the adjuster knob is installed. I can adjust it with the X-Brace installed.

I too have an X-Brace, which is sexy. Adjustable lateral links would not only simplify camber adjustments, but also eliminate some ribber bushing compression. I really liked the improvement. During steady state cornering, the car would push and then pull in during throttle application and lift from the stock bushings. I thought it was due to the tire tread crawling. It's more rock solid now and improves my confidence in my driving. It does add interior noise though.
