JIC/Cross company just installed R56 MCS mono turbe full coil over suspension. they are 15 way dampning adjustable front inverted mono tube and rear mono tube damper. ride feel 10% harder than origenal factory sports suspension. very nice ride. hundling is very nice. I can't wait go to race track.

Adjustment looks like a royal PITA. Cutting of the strut tops looks semi necessary to adjust the plates easy. Please say thats not the case (and more pics please!)

Have fun!

same for any camber plate and most coilovers.

 

how much?

 

I have these on my R52. The adjustment isn't as bad as it looks, because if you move the silver lockdown bolts more toward the center, you can reach them through the hole in the shock tower using a ball-end hex driver. If you look at the top of the camber plate, you can see the alternate holes that you can use for the bolts. It still might be a little tighter fit than with the first-gen cars, though.

 

Perfect explanation!!!! Thank you so much!!!!

 

What is the max negative camber up front you can achieve without the spring hitting the body (if that is even a problem)?

 

Depend ride height and wheel offset should be able to make around -3.5degree. if need more need modify little bit panel then more. I will update more detail info later.

 

Not true for the Helix plates for the pre-2007 cars. You can adjust the plates without having to cut up the strut towers.

 

...which is nice but the penalty you pay is weight -- they are by no means light.

 

and stack height IIRC

 

Wheel offset and ride height should have anything to do with camber angles

Nice kit by the way.

 

I have ridden in the car above, it is by far the best riding/handling R56 I have ever ridden in. After the test ride I went back to the shop and bought a set for my GP!

Revolution Mini Works is now carrying the Cross/JIC coilovers.

The R56s should be in shortly as they are finished and are being shipped from JAPAN!

 

The Helix camber plate weighs 28 ounces more than stock, adding a whopping 3.5 pounds to your car. It also adds the best protection available against mushrooming, plus it's easy for any competent mechanic to install them correctly on the first try.

 

Nice setup looks good!
