Camber plates are supposed to go side to side... Not diagonal.

I reckon you should drop the front another 30mm and the rear another 15mm ish to pull of the stance you've got going on with those wheels..

Nope, diagonal is good for gaining both camber and castor.

Unfortunately the ARE in the wrong way and that car will have lost castor.

No surprise, given what the outside now looks like.

:bad:

I don't quite understand the rims/tyres, but I guess I am just out of touch.
You bought a kinugawa td05-20g yet? Will help you solve that too much money problem you are having.
Kinda flush. Fitment is something. ADM as F*ck.

With some more forum assistance this should come come together nicely!!! :D
I had no idea about getting caster from diagonally mounted camber plates.
Is the right mounting for that with the slots toed-in rearward?

You do realise that with the process west intercooler and splitter (assuming you have it) you are going to eventually wear a hole into your brake hose and have no brakes?

Also, the BOV line on the right will also eventually get worn into...it's still an unfinished product, the one I sold had the right mounting brackets for it, only because they were modified, but the brake hose line was re-routed around as well which is the only way to avoid the splitter digging a hole into it.

Jerome, do you know if this is this something that happens only with Process West TMIC or other after market TMIC?

I know the Perrin, AVO and Hyperflow TMICs are fine, it's just the process west unit because it is so big, particularly it's width, but it also has to do with the mounting brackets that are used with it

Don't flame. Instead, offer ideas to 'neaten' the mods up.. He's heading in the right direction just need to sort out the stance/camber etc and it wouldn't look too bad.

However, lose the rear view mirror decoration
