Adustable Camber Strut Mounts
I couldn't find camber adjuster top mounts for a Gen 1 car, so look what I made! CNC cut from billet aluminum — except the part that bolts directly to the strut, which is steel. I'm going to send them off to have them hard anodized tomorrow; then install them on my car. They should allow for at least 6° of adjustment.

How much time you have into them?

Too much, the prototype always takes 10 times longer than the 2nd or 3rd set. You have to design it, engineer it (failure analysis), then set up tool paths, build fixtures, etc; it's sort of a labor of love for me. If I could have found them already made for $300-$500, I would have just bought them. But since nobody was making them for a Gen 1 car, I decided to tool up.
Anyway, now I have a really quality set for my car.
I did make a couple of extra sets whilst I had the fixture set up in the mill.

Yeah, that was confusing to me too. Ireland Engineering has some and I just installed Vorshlag's in mine.

I really did search; all I could find was for GEN 2 cars (which have a different bolt pattern).
