So low that I can't fit my floor jack under the front donuts.

joseph -- i'm wondering what you mean by 'conservative' camber?  what are you running?  :beer2:  n

That's pretty vague isn't it. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Let me clarify - I mean conservative in the sense that I'm running a bit less camber now than I was a few months ago.

Then: F -1.6 R -2.0

Now: F -1.3 R -1.7

I've also raised the car 1/4" and reduced the amount of toe-in/toe-out. I've gone to great lengths to get all of this dead on as well as a corner balance with a cross of 50%.

Tire temps are now closer across the tread than ever before.

It seems faster and more predictable with this setup. Car stays planted in turns and has better grip under severe straight line braking.

I'm running a 22mm front bar (full soft) & 250# R springs with koni adjustables on firmest setting (with VictorRacers).

The idea was to create a more conservative suspension tuning... then drive it for awhile and find out what really needs to be changed or increased. And I may change something later, but right now it's working really well for me. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)
