    Angry what camber kit to buy for my fe2?

    hi all,
    will make the long story short.. owned my vt s series1 for about 6 months now and went to go down the shops today and my rear tyre was flat, checked the other and thats about to die aswell. about 50mm from inner edge out is on a sharp angle and down to the wire. knew they had camber problems but the fe2 doesnt look as bad camber wise as the stock. i was wrong... lol ccan anyone throw me some names on good brand camber kits and experiences with fixing the problem... wheels are 17" vx ss wheels if that helps any... cheers

    There's a lot of debate about whether 4-point kits are best or 2-point.
    I've been reading up on them for about 6 months now, in prep for new sub frame and lowering.

    A 2 point kit from Nolathane or Whiteline (actually the same stuff just different colours) should be what your after.
    Look on their websites.
    $130ish from memory for the kit, another 200-300 for installation and alignment.

    if you're going through the trouble of putting a camber kit in put a 4 point in especially because it is a vt they didnt have the extra toe in adjuster that the VX series 2 onwards had... ive just finished upgrading my series 1 VX to a VZ subframe and i installed a 4 pont kit now my tyres sit perfect.

    so in conclusion:
    VT to VX series1= 4 point kit
    VX series2 to VZ= 2 point kit
    If in doubt......FLOOR IT!!!

    I do the SuperPro 4 point kit for $165 plus postage, usually $15 for an airbag.

    I have done these for about 10 years and never had a problem.
