Description
Ground Control Systems has been making camber plates before most of the companies now in the market even existed! Unique design allows camber AND caster adjustment. The Ground Control STREET/TOURING plate, a special version of our camber/caster plates, toned down for dual-purpose cars. Uses a proprietary upper perch which can reuse the stock spring insulator. A work of art, carved from a single piece of billet aluminum. That is the only way to describe this new street camber plate from Ground Control.
This is the part number for MkV and MkVI, and slides to allow camber and caster adjustment, as well as access to adjustable struts!
Fits entirely within stock sheetmetal with no cutting or trimming, and is adjustable from the stock CENTERLINE to 19mm inward. There is NO CHANGE in ride height, and NO LOSS OF SUSPENSION TRAVEL. An oversize American central bearing to reduce flex, yet using a waterproof German steering bearing which is rebuildable (unlike the stock parts) for smooth steering. .Designed for track use, and utilizing quality Aurora spherical bearings, the Ground Control camber/caster plates are machined only for use with coil-over springs. The GC STREET/TOURING camber plates have a range of caster adjustment that is intentionally limited. ( ~3mm in this case) The caster range allows the car to be aligned, and adjusted, but not enough range for experimentation. The reason is that a person who does not choose their spring rate, is not the person who should be experimenting with caster. Caster ALWAYS changes the toe-in, camber and bumpsteer, and the entire car must be realigned after adjusting. The intentionally limited range of the STREET camber plates allows the caster to be adjusted to compensate for factory deviations, but without allowing the caster to be adjusted to a specification that is out of the comfort zone of a driver who is not used to the pitfalls of experimentation and testing. We think these are the best camber plates available for the MkIV and MkV, that’s why we sell them!
Please specify brand of shock and coil over spring ID when ordering.
