harrison140 Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 I've just got some adjustable fuca's and rear camber arms that I will get fitted early next year. The front arms are adjustable for caster with shims. I was thinking about reducing the caster as the Z seems to have more than a lot of cars . My Z is a weekend/ track car and I'm not bothered about keeping things within factory spec if I can make it better for the track . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrison140 Posted December 15 Author Share Posted December 15 Sorry should have asked if anyone else has any experience of adjusting caster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 Do you really mean Caster or did you mean Camber? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrison140 Posted December 15 Author Share Posted December 15 Yes caster but I will also be adding negative camber to the front as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted December 15 Share Posted December 15 Are these what you are planning on fitting to the front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrison140 Posted December 15 Author Share Posted December 15 Yes Gktec is the make reading the instructions it says that caster can be increased or decreased by one degree depending how you stack the shims on the arms. I've been searching for information on the effects of caster but can't seem to find anything about the Z . From what I understand I don't think I need to increase it but wondered if decreasing it would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
