Thread: Camber plates for NON coil over setups

From reading and reading, not toooooo sure what will work with an "OE" style setup... aka, springs and shocks... no coilovers.

Tein, Ground Control, and Cusco seem to be the leaders.... or only manufactures that contribute to the B13/ B14. I'm more interested in the B14 application myself.

Many people seem to be worried about the car lifting a foot in the air after putting some plates on, I would eventually like to get a Cusco FSTB, and it seems that I need to get a Cusco Camber plate to do so, but the down side is a raised front end of the alleged 1" from a 1/4 plate..... I'm someone who likes function over flashy, but I don't want my car looking weird driving down the road. I have Road Magnets with KYB AGX's , and before buying tires I want my car to be pretty square, so I need a Camber plate.

I'm just wondering if the best bang for the buck is Ground controls, Tein, or Cusco..... Take out the need for a FSTB, which would be of better quality for the function of the product?

There seems to be alot of conversation on fitment of FSTB to a camber plate, and ride height changes, but not a lot of hard evidence that I found.

Again, sorry if this is clearly stated somewhere that I missed, but I think it's time to put it all in one place. I know that Shawn B's thread touches the need for a plate, and who makes them but I had a hard time of getting the info that I needed.

Thanks all

I like the GC plates because they sit above the tower unlike most of the other ones. I dont know if the Tein will work without their full coilover setup, but I think they won't.

I recently replaced my suspension with Tein coilovers that have pillowball mounts on the front and I'll add to Will's thought that they probably won't work.

isn't happynole running his cusco in some hyperco and agx?

edit: it was Hyperco and CSK

Well I can rule out Tein then... to make things easy...
The GC's can be used in a NON coilover setup?
It's confirmed that the Cusco will work, but is hard to come by...

Hmmm....

TEINS WORK

and are the cheapest. to many retards read stuff and don't actually think

tein coils can use factory pillows. therefor the upper diamater of their coils are stock size

but believe the hype




not runing coils

You can't use GC with oem style springs. TEIN (call and confirm with TEIN), Cusco, Stillen (same a cusco I hear).

Looks like I stand corrected.... hmmmm

^^^^ someone who would actually know

So there it is
Cusco .... Confirmed
TEIN.... will find out someday....
Ground Controls.... NEGATIVE!

thanks all!

Not sure but this should be added to the Shawn B thread?
