Off to the ring in a couple of weeks after a tour of the alps passes,

Need to get more negative camber on the fronts, someone gave me a website to look at which gave you step by step instructions to swap over the strut bearings which gives you 2.5-3 degrees but unfortunately it does not exist now for some reason, it uses the standard struts

Please help as running out of time!! anyone know of a method i can use.

I know this works for the E36 but not sure about the newer car.

I would have thought however that it's fairly self explanatory. You effectively just swap over the top-mounts that bolt into the suspension turret.

If you are relatively competant with a spanner it'll take you half a day. You will of course need a full alignment check thereafter.

I bought some adjustable top-mounts for the Z4M. The same kit fits the E46 M3....

www.k-mac.com.au

They arrived in about 3 days, from Australia! Don't know if that's soon enough for you or not, but they did the trick. I'm running 2.5deg on mine now, and you can adjust the castor as well smile

I got 2 degrees dialed in to my CSL. That's the most you can do without the measures I expect are in Nathan's link.

On a standard strut?
