hello chaps,
after some laps i have decided i need more camber to counter the understeer. so i am looking for a camber gauge.
has anyone got one they don’t want any more , or perhaps want to sell cheap, or indeed a recomendation where and what is a good deal.
i have seen the demon thieves offerings, and a few others but i can remember from somewhere a nice black triangle thingy which cost about 80 quid but i cannot find it any more.
your comments are greatfully received.
mitch.
I dont know about the exige cos ive never looked but on my ols s2 elise there wee shims on the suspension which can be removed. As long as you remove the same thickness on each side it will be ok. I had mine checked afterwards and it was spot on.

yeah, i thought about this route, of course there is no reason to really know the angle other than that of reference. just keep removing shims and testing the handling until it has stopped improving. but i also want to know that both sides are the same. i am sure they are but it would be nice to check.
I think I read in a book I’ve got that its really easy to make one - could dig the details out if you are interested?
Invest some money and buy a proper gauge.

You only need the gauge. You can use a straight aluminium bar instead of the adapter. I do have a nice carry case for all my sensitive gauges/tools, which used to be the case of a mini drill!
demon-tweeks used to sell these gauges for about �150; don’t know if they still do.
If I haven�t have the one I have, I wouldn�t mind buying one of these: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Inclinometer-Digital-Protractor-Angle-Finder-PRO360_W0QQitemZ330039918975QQihZ014QQcategoryZ64814QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
