It depends what wheel you're talking about. The leading wheel will gain more POSitive camber while the following wheel will gain more NEGative camber.ScrapnSidwayz wrote:I but increasing caster increases camber gain during cornering
yeah i know that only the outside wheel gains more negative camber. but isnt the inside wheel suppose to gain positive? i always knew that it is beneficial for the outside wheel to have negative camber but i never really thought about the effects of positve camber on the inside wheel. anybody wana elaborate on effects of positive camber on the inner wheel?Gabes13 wrote:It depends what wheel you're talking about.

^ this is good advice for probably 95% of us. If you need to run more or less than this then you already know why.Razi wrote:I say, just run stock 7 degrees of caster.
There isn't a simple yes or no here. The suspension is a dynamic system where everything interacts and affects each other. The stock caster setting is the usually the best compromise. But hell, don't listen to us. Try out a different setting and see how it handles on the road.ScrapnSidwayz wrote:so the stock 7 degrees would be best for the most tire contact patch while turning?
haha yes that is another option. i believe i have seen an rx7 that had its coilovers mounted like that before, although i never thought about trying that on a 240. but i guess if camber was a problem then you could always put in some camber bolts for a lil extra negative camber.Razi wrote:You could mount the top of your coilovers sideways.
Then you could get a little extra caster adjustment without moving the wheel inside the wheel well.
But then your camber adjustment would be limited...
Decisions, decisions.
