Suspension Secrets Adjustable Camber & Caster Plates - Toyota Supra MK5
At the limit the MK5 Supra cars suffer from understeer which gives the car quite a vague steering feel and a lack of trust in the front end. This is due to there not being enough camber at the front axle which is also not adjustable on the Toyota MK5 Supra platform. This means that you are limited to the camber setting set by Toyota which isn’t enough for track use or spirited road driving.
Forged from Motorsport data and knowledge our Toyota MK5 Supra adjustable camber plates solve this and are designed to work directly with the OEM shock/spring assembly as a direct bolt on upgrade to enhance the chassis and offer adjustable camber and a fixed increase in caster.
Whilst developing the M4 GT4 chassis we discovered that the perfect mixture of camber and caster increase on the front axle was the secret to getting the Toyota MK5 Supra to really work and was the blend of the geometry to make the whole chassis generate much more grip, reducing understeer to an absolute minimum.
Our camber plates have a fixed offset of caster machined into them so you can enjoy the benefits offered by this exact mixture of geometry. The steering feedback and feel our adjustable camber plates create is unmatched by comparison, producing a much more direct and confidence inspiring front axle, helping you to push harder and enjoy the drive much more.
The different camber settings available in the adjustment allow for optimum setups for fast road use, occasional track use and full track use meaning that you switch between camber settings with ease if you change how you are using your car.
Manufactured from Billet 6061-T6 aircraft grade aluminium our camber plates feature anti-slip adjustment slots meaning that once set, the camber value can’t slip or change when running kerbs out on track or hitting holes in the road.
Not only do our camber plates offer camber adjustment, but they also have a fixed increase in caster machined into them. The caster increase is designed into them as a fixed offset derived from the Toyota MK5 Supra car settings. We developed the fixed caster offset to keep them even more user friendly meaning there is no need for any caster gauges.
One of the biggest issues with the Toyota MK5 Supra chassis is a lack of steering feel and feedback. The added camber and caster offered by our camber plates helps to solve this by increasing front grip and feedback through the steering wheel making for a much faster and enjoyable drive. No more mid-corner push from the front end, but instead a front axle that has much more grip and turn in, putting much more trust into the drive allowing you to push harder and faster out on the roads or track.
Our rodoball bearings are one of the largest bearings on the market and have been specifically designed into our camber plates to ensure they keep noise to an absolute minimum and prevent any “bearing knock” from occurring when in use. This means that you receive all of the benefits of the spherical bearing such as improved shock absorber response and feedback without having any of the downsides making them the perfect upgrade for road or track use.
