Default How to adjust rear camber

Hi

I have been truing to find out how to adjust the rear camber on my S2. Car is to be used on road and some trackdays.

Searching the forum i find people talking about H&R Triple C adjustment bolts and SPC camber adjusting bolts. Even googled the parts and found the H&R for escorts (but it is for the euro or US version )

If for the euro escort, do they fit the rear setup or do i need to modifiy it to use these camber bolts ?
Someone told me that these bolts are already part of the RST rear setup, but i havent seen it

And.. is it worth it if you already have the adj. TCA's up front ?

You want:-

S1 or RS16i front rollbar
Adjustable TCA's
Coilovers
Adjustable top mounts or cosworth grp a top mounts.

Rear 6 link adjustable tie bars and link setup.

Disks all round with a 250bhp engine and you will have a monster.

That wasn't really the question was it!! Seems a very over-the-top solution to a simple question.

I ran SPC Camber bolts on mine, they cost <Ł20GBP and will give a moderate amount of camber adjustment. They are a direct fit into standard RST rear hubs and will obviously need setting up once fitted.

They suit what you're after perfectly.

ive been told that too, it wont fit straight onto the mk4 rst box as it bolts onto the box, maybe even a rs16i box with the diff put in is what you need?
