I'm ordering the Team Z K member kit in the morning and the car currently has stock mounts. I know I need caster camber plates for the coil over kit and I'm looking at the Team Z set as well to keep it all one company and not mismatched.

Question is that I have had caster camber plates before (Steeda) and everytime I hit a bump it would clunk bad. How much if any noise comes from the Team Z plates?

I have Team Z caster camber plates and strange 10 way adjustable coil overs; my front end it super loud with clunks. I'm currently doing some research and will call Team Z to figure out a fix. It seems the springs makes noise against the bottom of the caster camber plate. Not pleasant to drive around with for sure.

My car has MM K-member w/ Delrin bushings, MM CC plates & MM Bilstein coilovers. No more nose than stock. A little harshness from revalved Bilsteins & high rate springs though.

After having my front end apart for the past two weeks and looking over each and every piece, I believe the "clunk" issue has been found. The spherical bushing in the drivers side caster camber plate has some "play" in it. These are brand new with less than 200 miles on them; I'll be calling Dave on Monday to see what can be done.

I bought the strange 6001 coilover sleeves and hypercoil 12" 225# springs hoping they will fit on these stagg ebay struts I bought a while back, which have a bigger shaft diameter than the stock struts if they don't work I'll just buy strange struts. I am wondering what cc plates to use thinking about using the strange plates not sure....
Called strange they told me the strut shaft is oem size but didn't specifically say the diameter and strut body diameter is 2.211 with power coating they said to me over the phone when he went to ask his engineers. there coilover sleeve is 2.2 ID and my stagg strut is 2.205 strut body diameter and a 21.95mm strut shaft. So the strange coilover sleeve should fit with a little sanding. I will comment back when I get everything together to let you know how it rides.
