I am about to get some camber plate for my s13 -- so I did a little research and found a company that produces some with rubber insulation...

I already have coil overs - and a bunch of the suspension links but I never had any experience in a 240sx with the pillow ball mount camber plate -- does it affect comfort at all ? bump steer ??

anything like that -- shoudl I just get the ruberized ones ?

Coilovers come with pillowball mounts.

At any rate, pillowball is the way to go. It is slightly more noisy than rubber, but promotes more precise handling feel.

Yes they should have come with pillowball mounts - but when I got my 240 i was fairly clueless about the extensive aftermarket support, went to a shop that recommended me Tanabe sustec ( the salmon ones ) and after paying a premium for them -- without pillowball mounts -- I started doing some research.

Anyway -- I was trying to lose little comfort and still get improved feeling // adjustability -- if I could go back in time I would most likely have gone for koni yellow and some nice eibach springs...

behhh

I guess that made me come to my own conclusion :-D

Get pillowballs. Front camber adjustability is great, and you won't really feel the difference if you are already on coils. Just a little bit more road noise
