Coilovers are installed and adjusted (height wise).
heres the pics. Go the alignement today, and got the toe issue all solved, but the guy told me he couldn't do anything to camber without camber bolts. no big deal talked to chad at gravana, and a set is in my near future. HOWEVER, has anyone had issues with camber/camber bolts with the gravanas? Just wondering. i know with my g/c's on my zx2 years ago, the bolts wouldn't hold and i got an alignment about every 2 months.
A nother ?.....the HT rear mounts....YES NO...what the vote on those

yea i was 2+ degrees off on both fronts. got myself some camber bolts and she comes right into spec. you can slot the struts too but camber boltsd are easier for retarded alignment shops in my experience.
My car may run 18s, but I can do your taxes in 10 seconds flat.

Camber bolts
and what bolts do they replace top or bottom?

The bottom bolts. The proper way is too slot the lower strut mount holes, but most shops are too lazy.
the gravana's are slotted on the top
ERIC!!!! YES good call. As soon as the stimulis check is here ima get bolts and take it to the shop
im within OEM spec's, but BARELY

Exactly. When I still had my Gravana's thats what the alignment shop did to mine. They slotted the lower strut mount holes.

cam bolts go in the top. If a strut is slotted, the bottom hole gets slotted.
ahhhhh

Mine were already slotted ON TOP
mine might have been but the shop still couldnt get it into spec. hence the camber bolts

That should not be a problem, especially if the manufacturer did them like that. They are the ones figuring out the geometry.....they will know what will work best for them.

Sounds like you need an alignment. remember everytime you change ride height, you are changing camber and toe also. Therefore you should get it set up how you want it most of the time, and THEN have it aligned.
i have an alignement....just got it done....and its all within specs, i watched the guy do the alignment from start to finish, but it still looks to be out a bit...so i dunno...
