UPDATE: I now have the front guide supports (found in a box in the garage) so it is truly a "complete" Dinan Stage 1.

What kind of camber are you seeing with this kit (springs and camber plates)?

I understand you are the second owner. However, do you have any idea how many miles and old the set is? Are they off the car/pics?

Pics below. I picked the system from a friend that used it for about 2 years. I used it for 3 months and then decided to go with a full suspension upgrade. So, it's just been sitting boxed in the garage for about 6 months.

Is the Stage 1 set still available?

I've already got a set of Vorshlag camber plates, so I'd be interested in the Stage 1 by itself, without the GC plates.

Even if they aren't for sale any more, I've got a couple questions for you, as a user of the Dinan stage 1 with camber plates:

My understanding of the Dinan kit is that they recover the suspension travel lost by the drop from the springs by using shorter top mounts and that replacing them with the GC plates would give most of it back (keeping a little from the shorter bump stops). If you ran your setup with the GC plates on the track, how did it behave compared to stock? Do you know whether using the GC plates also gave back some ride height? Thanks.

They are still available and I have no problem splitting them from the camber plates. However, for the height reason you described the camber plates were custom ordered and made to maintain proper height.

As for performance they were a huge improvement over stock zcp in EVERY way.

Nicely done. Which GC plates are these? If not competely inconvenient, mind snapping a quick side by side of the dinan mount with the GC? Thanks man.
