Hi MV350.. Car look sick

wanted me a set of meisters in white on my silver GS! and they do fitt the gs soo good doing it right!. keep it up..

One question! what do u control ur camber with now? just camberplates on the coils? Im in for a intense build this winter and i need to know the best way to control camber and what i need to be able to do so!

can u point me in the right directions! And if i need something more to get everything to rock with eachother to last.

ps.. i have ordered a custom set of BCR alowing me to go lower than normal BCR! a travel och 150mm.

Woah, what a quick build. This definitely inspired me to go the extra mile. Unfortunately, the funds are quite low. :[

im completely using stock camber adjustments. im looking to get a little more, ive been in contact with figs, but seems like because of the end of the year hes a little busy. but because he would have to custom make them, similar to another members car fullmoongs(i think) to gain the extra negative camber.

thank you, but there is no need to rush or hurry anything. the reason i started so quickly is because i sold my is350 to buy a gs and do a build.

Hey Ian, right on your going to rock the rear camber. If you want more front camber let me know I am going to be talking to a friend soon and see if he can fab out a part for me that will giver the front about -6 or 7 degrees.

The option I am looking at doesn't pull the top of the tire in, but pulls the lower out like the rears. So shouldn't be a issue but will let you know when I do it hahaha
