kerry 10 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) this is the NEW delrin rear toe in/out, camber, caster kit for your e30. dont waist your money on a cheaper kit that will wear out over time. this kit should outlast any e30 corection kit on the market. the main bolt is keyed through the eccentric center bush. quality New Zealand made product up for grabs. $295 + gst free freight nation wide.

E30-323ti 66 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 They look nice. 2 changes I would suggest. The wider bush, thin down the other, and have a large hex on the steel insert, so you can adjust them easily when gettign an alignment. On the other end of the steel insert, put some verigations/serations so it grips the sub-frame when they are torque'd up, to stop them rotating.

kerry 10 Report post Posted August 7, 2011 fair sugestions. the bush is made to keep to the factory geometry of the original bmw bush. you can adjust these very easily from the bolt end as they go in from the inner side of the arm. if the eccentric bush were to be knurled on the ends that should in theory create the "grip" you say. cheers kerry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 1964 Report post Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) What is the degree of adjustment? Most of these kits you can purchase just don't have enough adjustment for very low/race cars. If you have anything more than about -2deg on the rear and want to correct it you need the slotted camber correction tabs put onto the subframe.

How does the bolt turn the eccentric sleeve to 'adjust' ?? eg. The KMAC ones have a 'keyed' bolt to rotate the whole bush IIRC to adjust. These are rubbish as the sleeve is concentric and the 'bush' rotates out of adjustment. if the eccentric bush were to be knurled on the ends that should in theory create the "grip" you say. cheers kerry Theory say P=F/A knurling the end reduces the contact area thus increasing the pressure...

kerry 10 Report post Posted August 8, 2011 How does the bolt turn the eccentric sleeve to 'adjust' ?? the bolt is slotted and the eccentric tube has a key way inside much like a crankshaft does it cant come out so once you have your adjustment set and nuts cranked up it would be very unlikely to move.
