Quick check on camber plates please

[i3igpete]

I am mid install on my Verus camber plates and I can't seem to get full negative on the plate. I have the logo facing towards the outside of the car. i checked the reinforcement rib in a few stock photos and it looks like it is supposed to be on the logo side. All studs going upward are all the way in, am I missing something or is this as far as it goes negative?

Looks about the same as mine. I’m at -3 and -3.4 degrees.

Awesome, thanks for checking. i was dreading taking it apart again and flipping the orientation of the slider plate.

What coilover/spring setup? If you have a larger barrel type or progressive spring it could be coming in contact with the shock tower limiting the camber.

Here is a JRZ plate 3.8-3.9 camber on factory arms.

doing the hks spring / verus camber plate combo for increased Tire clearance inner and outer, respectively. since it seems like the usual budget coilover options are a downgrade on this platform, and i don't have the seat time to properly dial in an expensive setup.

Related question I suppose. If my goal is to get as much negative camber as possible, can I just slam it inboard and crank down the adjustment bolts, or do I need to back off a millimeter or two to prevent rubbing? i think know what the reasonable answer probably is...

HKS uses a barrel spring so it’s likely that the spring is making contact. You would want to back it off a bit the whole strut assembly turns with the front knuckles.

Thanks for the sanity check, i decided to back it off so that the third outboard hole from the strut Center Line is half showing, rather than fully exposed
