washer trick for rear camber - how thick?
On a 2-door EK..
Anyone venture to guess how thick the washers have to be to reduce camber from -1.6* to 1.1* or 1.3*? Car is lowered about 1-1.25".
New Year's Cheers.

Probably only one or two standard SS washers lowered where you have it. I'd say two would be about right, but if the washers are a little thicker, then just use one.

What kind of bolts are you guys using for this? I'm guessing the OEM ones are too short. Anybody know off hand the bolt size and thread pitch so I can pick up some grade 8 hardware?

The stock bolts will be fine for 1 or 2 washers. A general rule of thumb is 1 washer per 1/2 degree.
Flanged 10 X 1.25 bolts. Grade 8 bolts are for SAE sizes. 10.8 is the metric equivalent.
