front camber adjustment

Just a question, in the pics of camber adjustment you can either adjust the offset bolt in or out as in two settings only, but can you adjust it half way for incremental steps?

yes, the bolt spins from one point to the other. rotate it to get the camber setting you need.

Assuming you're talking about the stock bolt: No, you can only adjust the stock bolt one way or the other. There aren't any incremental adjustments.

really? it's been a while, but i could swear mine had some adjustment. otherwise we'd be stuck with having to choose one of two camber settings only.

It's been a while for me too, but that's what I remember.

So I just did it and yes, the stock bolt has a cut out on the top and bottom which makes the bolt only be able to be turned out or in, the arrow on the bolt was pointing in which is what I thought it was so I turned it out which means now while I've stopped tracking in summer will save the inside of my tyres, I took it for a run and noticed it turns a little sharper but tends to push the front out a bit in sharp corners, I can live with that and I'll turn it back when I start tracking again, but the way the bolt was damn tight, had white thread locker on it, I had to use a flame torch to loosen it, the bottom one I could just do it with a long bar, make sure you use a 6 point socket too otherwise you'll damage the bolt trying to loosen it

yeah, the torque for those bolts is kinda high. also, you may wanna check your toe settings. the camber change may be enough to affect the toe enough to need a touch up.
