wish i had some nrca's :(
my azenis are getting bald time for new soon.

im on battle version NRCA on max camber and then t3 camber plates set in the middle camber is only -3 degree.
i went sliding today and my azenis' were understeering everywhere

i'm at -2.5ish camber with no rca/nrca

have you ever had any issues with understeer?

um i did before, i was running -4 camber and toe in slightly and it sucked.

then i started doing small amounts of toe out and some caster and its awesome. i have .5 degree toe out and -3 camber now and its working good. Have to warm the tires up then they grip like crazy.

maybe that's it... we didn't mess with caster just camber....

and maybe i didn't warm them up enough i guess. i ran the hell out of the car and even after a while they still were unda-steering

i'll have to play with it and get some nrca's

oh and you're car looks sweet in the pics

it was built to go sideways haha. though after my rejetting the carbs and some base runs its very streetable now. it drives awesome on the freeway and side roads, but its arizona, its hott 100+ no AC black car and it sucks to drive it haha.

nope sorry.

i do know this much:

basicly a GTS catback will bolt onto a sr5 IF you have a GTS test pipe or GTS cat. the cats between sr5 and gts are different. sr5 is a bigger longer cat than a gts.

2 pieces under axle. on a lowered car it tends to hang a bit low but i dont have any scraping issues.

btw this exhuast is LOUD. its got a really crazy deep loud tone. sounds good but its loud. ive had it on a stock gts and it was awesome, and now on the built motor its sweet. my cam lope just makes the exhuast pop like crazy at idle and under wot its mean sounding!

damn dude i cant wait to order mine when i get paid. I was looking at a couple of places to get one but most of the exhaust seem to be either discontuned like the GP SPORTS or RS*R and the FUJISUBO so all thats left is the HKS and megan and I heard that megan's are amazing. Im already running there coilovers and might as well run there exhaust lol
