Bakemono Camber Plate Group Buy #2! 02-07 and 93-01 imprezas

[Bakemono-Imports]

I had these camber plates available for the 93-01 Imprezas before but now am offering them for both the 93-01 AND 02-07 imprezas as well.

The camber plates are 9.5mm (roughly 3/8"), compared to Cusco/Zeal's 6mm plates which have a tendency to bend and bow over time. The camber plates are rebuildable as well. If you are excited to install a new strut bar and overtorque a stud, snapping it, those are replaceable. The bearing assembly is also rebuildable. Additionally, the camber plate slots are longer, allowing for additional camber to be dialed in if necessary, for those of you running aggressive wheel setups. The camber plates are anodized gun metal, with '化け物Bakemono" etched out in silver.

The fronts have even further adjustability, with increased negative camber support, as well as being able to be rotated 15, 30, and 45 degrees to dial in caster simultaneously!

The pricing includes shipping to the 48 states. Residents of other areas, please inquire. California residents pay 9.25% sales tax. Discounts applied on a set of 4 refers to 2 front camber plates, and 2 rear camber plates. I will be running the group buy until June 21st. After that, it will take another 3-4 weeks for manufacturing. A $150 deposit will get your name on the list. This amount will pay for the majority of the material cost and hardware. The remainder of the amount won't be due until the plates are ready for shipping.

Standard retail price is $300

The fronts have increased negative camber support, as well as being able to be rotated 15, 30, and 45 degrees to dial in caster simultaneously by just changing the location of the removable studs


Here is a comparison of my camber plates to the Cusco ones



Here's a shot of the bottom. Notice how the studs are removeable and how the bearing assembly plate can also be torn down for cleaning, maintenance, repair, etc.


This shows the rebuildablilty of the bearing assembly if/when they wear out.

I would jump on these if i already didn't have a project going on :P. Looks like great stuff

I really like how the spherical bearing is installed. Much better design then most of the c-clip press in designs. What size/brand bearing are you using? Is this a personal design? Have you thought of slotting the mounting bolts to enable further caster adjustment?

wow thats not cheap

[2slo4u]

Very nice plates

I just got mine from the first batch. And WOW. These are alot beefier/nicer than I had anticipated. I'm comparing to Whiteline and Cusco front plates. The tolerances are tight on the bearings and so forth. This is well made.

Thanks. Its a personal design but not a proprietary bearing. The bearings can be bought at industrial supply houses or bearing suppliers as long as you give them the right dimensions.

It wasn't a cheap design, and they're not cheap to make, anodize, parkerize, etc. I didn't take any shortcuts in production. If I did, they would just end up being like the cusco ones: thin, limited adjustability, and zero rebuildability. I designed them to be a quality piece that you only have to buy one set of, which will be cheaper in the long run. Instead of needing to replace them as things wear out (such as the bearing), you could just maintain them and rebuild as necessary.

At the lowest price point, they are actually cheaper than the Cuscos....prices include shipping.

I'm glad they exceed your expectations.

Drooling and digging threw sofa for change. Nice design, I have project in disassembly phase and will buy these when ready.

[mrruins]

Wow...these look superb.
