Instead of m10 1.25X40mm bolts that I used before with 6 washers, Ive redone it with m10 1.25X60mm with 10 washers. Camber seems just a tad off, but not unless you stare at it and examine it. Hopefully camber is a-ok now.

you shouldn't be able to tell if your camber is off just by looking at your tire. unless your like an android and can calculate mad angles in your head. your supposed to do the mod than go have your alignment checked/done to see how far out it is

I think that is a lot of stress on those bolts. But I hope it works out for you.

Yeah it is alot of stress..... Sorta rethinking it now. Oops. But.... If worst came to worse and one broke, I think Id know it before all broke. But maybe it wasnt the best idea. We'll see.... I ahve a feeling tho it will work out ok

Tighten that shit up. I feel leary with the 6 bolt setup that I have, especially with all the e-brake pulling that's goin on :)

Haha,we got 3 inches of snow last night/today right after I took my exhaust video, and it's still snowing,and i'm in love. E-brake pulling is,for instance, in wet or snowy weather where you accelerate to about 20-25mph, yank the e-brake and the ass end of your car goes flying around, due to the fact that the e-brake only holds your rear wheels.

Where do you live at?

It snowed like 5 inches here today, my first time driving in snow in my car, and it was a bitch.
