alright folks.....anyone here got group N/Alloy rear gearbox mounts.....my xe rips them to bits every 1000 Miles......and thats std mounts filled with sikaflex............where do i get them, and are they worth it ??

secondly.....fitting spax coilovers with 240lb springs.....i want to be able to adjust camber, but dont want any dodgey cam bolts........so i want to get some adjustible top mounts........any thoughts/ideas....anyone got them.

thirdly......rear camber setup....im just about to pop the rear hubs off.......its 40mm dropped at the back, with 15 inch speedlines.......std offset.....I want quite a fair bit of -camber.......what thickness of washer should i be looking to put in there ???? anyone got any figures, or experience with it ?????

fourthly....rear brakes.......im planning on buying a wilwood prop vavle for the rear brakes....they lock up very early.......Am i correct in thinking that i can remove the std load sensing valve...run brake pipes to the dash and back, and put the wilwood valve in the dash ??????? or am i being silly ????

id rather not leave it under the car...and i dont fancy having to remove every brakeline on the car.......



thanks in advance folks

sorry......should have stated this bit....its std rear drums......and its a well modified xe engine, in a stipped and caged track car...........who is dave............rear camber is fixed, but i'm planning to "shim" the lower 2 bolts out, to create negitive camber....im hoping someone can say " use this washer to get this much camber...
