hey people. i am after some adjustable camber tops for my 1200 coupe. can a set of s13 ones just bolt straight to a 180b strut and shock??? or can they only be used with a coil over setup??

here is a link to the s13 tops which i can get for cheaper than advertised

You might need to get a spacer machined up to fit inside the eylet bearing and take the load of the top spring hat and reduce play of the shock tube, but looking at that it appears that it may not be needed.

not bad, you will probably need the spacer, also a bearing to help the top hat spin like the stock set ups, other wise might undo shock nut from time to time...

hey pigdog. so did you use s13 camber tops on 180b or 1200 struts with stock springs? any chance of a photo or drawing of what this spacer looks like as my brain cant really picture it without the parts in my hand.

thanks
