Guys/gals....I just had to put 2 Toyota Celsiors in my SH*T BOX. 1st the roof cracks on one while i was LIGHTLY removing paint...then on the 2nd one, either the suspension is crap...or I was just too tired of modeling for the night..somehow I F'ed it up...I ended up taking both the front and rear suspensions off like 5 times each and re-doing them over and over again and the wheels never ever sat right...What am I doing wrong? I still have 2 Super Woofers and a Junction Produce Celsiors coming......so can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong on these suspensions so I dont have to kit bash any more Celsiors!!!! Thanks!

If you are talking about the camber they are made that way. Atleast the 2 I have are that way and its worse if you use the lowered suspension...

Re: Celsior suspension question
There is a set of springs and screws that adjust the height of the suspension. Then there is a set of springs and screws to adjust the camber. It takes some tweaking to get the car to sit right but otherwise it's not too complicated.
EDIT: To get my Celsior (Parkin' Lot Pimpin') dumped without the obnoxious wheel camber I didn't even use the height adjusting springs (front or rear). I just used the screws and threaded them all the way in. From there I was able to tweak the front camber springs to my liking. In the rear I didn't use springs. The simple weight of the car gave the perfect camber. My car is supposed to have airbags so with a lowered strret effect you would use the height adjust springs. You can even cut them down if you'd like but the point is a realistic stance takes some diddling around but very do-able. After all that, my Celsior sits like this......

Re: Celsior suspension question
Ok, but....the front, i didnt have much trouble. The thing that made me so aggrivated was the rear. I think it had to do with the way I put the brakes on...when i screwed down the outer screw(closest to the wheel) the wheel would push out to the right....i was like wtf...it looked horrible...The only thing I think that happened was that my super glue gunked up cuz I accidently used a bit much for the little (stick) on the brake for the wheels to go over, and it caused when I applied the brake, to sit funny. Has this happened to any one?
nis k.a.------btw non of these cars i totolled I bought from you thank god Thanks so much for the kits and the advise..I will do this on my next Celsiors, plus I ordered the kit I messed LN again...Its the Vlene Heroism w/ the 20inch Bersaglio's (sp?)-Chris Which springs front and back adjust camber / ride height? Thanks!!! I cant read the japanese on the assembly sheet. lol. |

Re: Celsior suspension question
The screws on the inner most portion adjust the ride height.
The screws on the control arms of the suspension adjust the camber.
