Default toe and camber in rear suspension design

what effect does camber and toe have on rear wheels?

doing independant rear suspension for motorsport use on fiesta's for my final year project in uni and would like to be able to incorperate some sort of adjustment into the designs.

if i can use 2 points to adjust camber then i can also adjust the toe by using the same points in theory with careful design and thought.

just wandering if there is any use in working it into the final model.

Either stability at speed or nimbleness through corners depending on the setting

i know you have done it brom!

it is basically a project that i can then go into the industry when applying for jobs and say that i was able to design a system from scratch and thought about it as well instead of just copying another already designed system.

i did give you a pm regarding how you go about testing the suspension parts about a month back, i am going to be in canock on thurs, would it be poss to pop round and discuss things more with you? you could try to tempt me to buy some lower arms..
