Honda Fit / Rear Camber plate install

[@Nelchalo]

Hey Trip nice video thank you for putting it out. I have a GD3and is silver as well. I love my fit and I live in Nashville. What shop do you go to when you need bigger jobs. Like transmission and engine work. Please don’t say the stealer I meant the dealer lol… I need a mechanic that can think outside the box and charges reasonable prices. Dealers shops are not for older cars in my experience. Thank You!

[@Nelchalo]

Except a few. It all depends of the mechanic

Any help about my honda fit gd? Tire wear at the rear wear outer .. but my front wheel is fine the only tire wear is the rear

[@TripSkyWalker]

@jifcks4320 if you are getting wear on your outer tire then you have positive camber. You want ideally 0 to -3 ish range.

[@dareal_x]

Can I use washers to camber the rear instead of shims?

[@TripSkyWalker]

@dareal_x will it work? Yeah is it a good Long time solution no. Now you have far less surface area mating your spindle to your axle beam. Makes it a good snapping point.

[@dareal_x]

@@TripSkyWalker So it's not safe, right? What if I change the bolts? I think they'll have the same function if shims are used.

Hey can those coilovers work on the 2004 GD1 model?

[@TripSkyWalker]

I'm really not sure. We didn't get the Fit here in the states until 07. I'm not sure what the Differences between gd1 to gd3. But fortune auto is pretty good about answering questions

Why the hell would anyone want to do this?

​@@HowIsPastaccioliTakenthere are a few different factors that could cause uneven tire tread wear, and cantering your wheels is literally never recommended as a solution to any of them! Besides, I don't at all believe that he's serious when he says that that's the reason he's cantering his wheels anyway, but rather an excuse to do something that he believes will give him attention.

[@HowIsPastaccioliTaken]

@@jcolt84 increased negative camber is crucial for these cars in any performance scenario, especially the racetrack. The front suspension geometry causes positive camber increase at/near full compression, which will wear only the outside edge of tires and require replacement in a fraction of the time. Rear camber is certainly less important as it is a torsion beam setup, but the same general principles apply; when you're living on the edge of grip/travel at a track you need as much tire contact patch as you can get, largely accomplished with camber I'd suggest researching suspension more
