baby_jap : hahaha , u got conned

 

[boyzone]

I had been done 1 time on camber pumping..
actually, it would not last long as the method is using a small jeck to push in / pull out my absorbar.
Better go to camber nut.
Besides, 1 or 2 degress offset in the camber should not given u any problem one.

Just my opinion.

 

[baby_jap_wawa]

what is camber nut.. ?

 

[seanlee]

normally we call adjusting the camber nut.....yes it can as cheap as RM15 perside rear....it can be FOC as well...

all depend on the reputation of the shop.....i been recomend by R3 racer in the Klang doing al above thing..but cost hundred above...but result...was good...each tuning has it own behavior ..

tips:
remember..while doing camber or alignment...you have to seat in the car while doing...to be more accurate.

[jinkl]

wht the hell is pump camber, frm just now u r mentioning , please introduce us to this first time hearing method la :) if its real , i wanna know also

boyzone 1-2 degrees ? r u sure
y dnt u try , front left -1 , front right +1 lolx
rear left +2 , rear right -2 ,
hehehehehhe , gone

 

[boyzone]

What I mean is :
left :0
Right 1.xx
will not give u significant wear off as might need to consider on tyre pressure and car floor clearnace.
I have notices that my camber always offset 1, 2 degress when do alignment.
But my tyre still wear with very even.
Regarding an oldman from tyre shop told me, camber will be out once we are hit on uneven road surface but not until tyre uneven wear.
If observed any uneven wear off on the tyre, item need to check is not camber setting only, but need to go to btm chasis checkng as any of bush wear out ,lower arm bar bush wear out or weak on absorbar might cause tyre wear one side.

Anyway, go to adjustable camber nut is better insteasd of pumping.

correct me if I'm wrong.

Bros, adjustable chamber nut RM45 per pcs, is it too expensive?

 

[SkYwAlKeR]

sorry to interupt... but anyone kind enough to share any pics or view or thoughts on how pumping camber works??.. means u are pushing ur camber by force??...

 

[baby_jap_wawa]

how much is adjustable cambers for perdana front and rear.. ?

and i think pumping the cambers means pushing the cambers lets say 1-3 degrees.. my area quoted me ard 200 for front and 100 for rear which i think is damn expensive.. since hitting the roads will unalign the camber.. no point i spend so much and suddenly go into one hole the camber zhao yong.. right?

 

[boyzone]

yes... camber will out once hit to the uneven road surface. Especially high speed hit on uneven road surface, low profile tyre... This word is from tyre shop expriance worker.

 

[baby_jap_wawa]

0h.. means its not reali useful to adjust camber.. ? how abt adjusting alignment.. ? is it a must.. ? and how onli alignment will zhao yong.. ? hahaas..

 

[jinkl]

nah , most of u guys got it wrong, if u hit an uneven surface , doesnt mean it has to give way , first do know how camber works , do u all have first hand in setting camber ? or u guys speaking from other ppls saying :)

camber is adjusted via a bolt and nut which is holding your suspension shocks , here is the picture

i adjust camber on my own , and there will no reason to give way unless you run a "cheap nut and bolt" , "nut and bolt which is loose"

Jinkl, great info . Have been following the thread for some time.

Some noob questions. By default, is the bolt and nut come with the car? If not how much to get it install?

Thanks bro
