ZCP Camber Settings - with pins in and square set-up

R A W L S · 03-03-2011, 11:51 PM

Can anyone recommend front and rear camber settings for track use with the pins in? I have zcp and a square tire setup. Also what about toe/caster settings?

Thanks

You're limited in front. Just max it out. You should get around -1.4. This is how I ran my '09 with square set-up. Rear was set to -1.5. The car was very very neutral on the track with 265/40-18 PS2s on four corners with these settings and stock EDC suspension.

Remove the pins! From what I have read here, you want as much camber in front as you can get. Removing the pins seems very safe, dealer friendly approach. Its not like you are drilling holes or even installing aftermarket suspension.

I run 275 square, the back is at 1.5 and front maxed out with pins pulled. I have been very impressed with the stock suspension on the street and track. I could use more camber up front but i have been hesitant to change out the stock springs. The front would love 2-3deg negative camber on the track to even out tire wear, but I beleave there is still no adjustable camber plates for the stock springs and they would probably lift the suspension some also(no good). I run zero front toe and the rear set within specs, just make sure that your cross camber and toe is the same.
