FREE castor adjustment mod

Not sure if anyone else has ever done this mod?....i got the idea off the GTIROC, so is suitable for the B13, B14, N14, N15 chassis.

Can you see what i`ve done?.... All you need is camber adjustable topmounts which you rotate around so the adjuster now sits at 45* giving you adjustable camber AND castor. All you need do is drill a new hole, as the other 2 line up.

Not had an alignment check done yet but it looks like it gives a couple of degrees of castor and camber. Maybe one for the track guys?

First impressions: quicker turn in, increased oversteer and ligher steering ( a bonus if you have NO PAS like me! )

We need an alignment sheet to see what it actually did.

from what i know, caster swings from the bottom and not the top, even if you manage to swing the caster from the top it's not going to be enough

Bottom?.....surely its best from the top.

Now its a matter of time to wait for the small line between the 2 holes to tear apart when going over a major bump and unsettle the suspension on that side.
