GT SPEC rear V-brace help?

[JD32883]

This is a quick question to those out there that have this installed. I was looking underneath and how to install this when i put the panel up and saw that in order to install this rear panel you have to take out the washers that allow you to adjust the camber in the rear. What i was wondering do you uninstall those washers when installing the panel for the v-brace? If yes does anyone out there make adjustable control arm for the msp. I just dont see how once you install this you lose adjustable camber control in the rear. If anyone out there could point me in the right direction i would deeply appreciate it. Thanks for the help.

i thought the camber was set by the rear shock (or strut...shows u how much i know about our suspension)? at least, this is what the mazda tech told me...wouldn't be the first time they lied to me.

that's a great question you've brought up. I'm curious about that as I've installed one of these on a friends car and didn't even think about it.

hmmmmmmm, i can't even think of a way to make it work, the brace doesn't allow for the bolts to move much at all so I don't even see how it would work. But ya know, I don't remember if the brace had elongated openings to allow for adjustment. Because if it does then you would put the washers between the brace and where they are supposed to be then adjust from there, pain in the arse but maybe (???) it would work.

They should adjust just fine.

This is maybe an idea.. sorry for such an archaic (spelling?) design but it's an idea.

Did you ever install the vbrace thing on your car? if so, were there noticeable improvements in handling? I'm thinking of it, anyone have any ideas, please?

I've got it on my car and it made a tiny difference. If I had some more time, I'd get some real subframe connectors welded on, but this is okay for the time being.
