Ive lowered my e30 on apex 70mm springs..it sits nice...not stupidly low but enough to look good. Eny how...as you all know, the camber gets thrown out with eny heigh modifications to the rear end, this coupled to an m50 poweres car eats tyres lol. Ive got all the rear end stripped down at the momment and ive ordered all poly bushes, so while its out im wanting to know the options for changing the problem of camber. Thannks

I am in the same situation. I've been advised and have just ordered a set of camber & toe adjustable plates from DanThe. Welded onto the subframe where the trailing arms join, this will give you some adjustability. There are other way of doing this, eccentric bushes for example. But the above is more recommended.

Priced at £50, plus getting the correct offset bolts, its well worth doing :)

Have a look at this thread http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... c&t=230626

You can also buy subframe bushes that raise it 12mm buy haven't found any for sale in the uk.

As said about, buying camber/toe plates is the best was to do it
