Description:
|
I installed the RDR camber plates 2 weeks ago and have had some time to evaluate ride and performance during both the daily commute and some aggressive driving. I picked these camber plates due to the bearing being mounted in polyurethane. This should help damp out excessive road noise compared to a solid bearing system.
First, the install went very good, taking about 1 1/2 hours. I had previously installed H-Sport springs so was familiar with the process. There were no issues with assembly of the camber plates or installing them on the struts. Since I bought these used I didn't have instructions but the plates were labeled RH and LH by the previous owner and the install was straight forward.
The car was very twitchy before getting the alignment (1.5" toe!!) but absolutely amazing after. With -2 deg camber the ride is acceptable to me, only slightly harsher than with the stock plates. This was noticed more by a slight increase in road noise on rough pavement than any clunks or rattles, similar to the OEM runflats.
Last weekend I put on about 100 miles of fast twisties and cannot believe the increase in cornering grip the change in camber gives. I will have to wait until I can get on the track before learning where the new limits are but all in all this has been one of the best additions to my MCS to date.
