whilst you're at it, you may as well fix the mass rear toe you'll have too (like camber shims just in a different angle)

That 2degrees...

Where do i get some of these camber plates?

And yeah im gonna fix the toe in as well.

cheers dude, reckon the eibach ones are the go.

The shims are good if you do it right, you only get one try. I used some and got my calculations wrong, had way too much toe in. That's why a resorted to one thick washer on each front lower stub axle bolt.

ill follow this guide, and hopefully it will work

Just snip the correct tabs out of the shims and you'll be good

In the mk4 the shims only work with a car at x height, too much lowering past that = excess toe in, too much above the height and too much toe out.
I'd imagine it would be similar on a mk3 based on the rear beam design. Not sure if it rolls as much as the mk4 tho...

Yeah, well basically the chart in the instructions for the mk3 came to an end if you wanted maximum camber and minimum toe-in.

I'm yet to try it, but if you jack the rear beam up and simply rotate the shim so that it's set at the desired setting and cut out the bolt holes instead of following the instructions it "should" work.
