Parts to help the rear tires sit perpendicular to the road??
Just wanting to adjust the rear tires to sit flat against the road surface, instead of leaning on the inside edge. I think custom parts have been mentioned on this forum, but I can't find them. I know it's designed to hug corners, but I'm much more interested in going quickly in a straight line, and let's just say that my 60' times where embarrassing today at the track, and I'm not going to even "think" about adding more power, until I find better traction. Plus I'm sure I'm wearing out my drag radials too because of the goofy "leaning" tires as well, it also looks like a lowered friggin Honda the way it sits now in the rear!!

What tires are you running. I have zero traction issues at the track.
Camber isn't adjustable on the rear and it's not your problem anyways. |

Camber is not just to hug corners, but to keep the car stable during normal driving. You may want to research toe as well. Much of this is discussed in threads that deal with premature wear of rear tires in this car. Do a search for that topic.

I'm running more camber from lowering the car and more power and I hook fine.
You can't expect a nitto with a stiff sidewall to get perfect traction. Get some 17" hooiser dot drags with 17psi, so the sidewall ripples and grabs on launch. Your track might not have a good vht prep either. I've reduced the rear toe on mine to 0.7 degrees to reduce tire wear as well. |

I foube some replicas that worked. Might have to get a set made from ccw.

Do they make adjustable camber bolts for these things?

I'm not interested myself, more for the OP's benefit. I had Whiteline camber bolts in my Sti but hated the things and got rid of them. |
