Have i understood things right, that 205GTI hubs fitted to a 306, will give a bit more negative camber?How much? Are there any other "cons" with this?, positions of steering arm etc?, i donīt want to end up with a bad alignment issue.... ________________________________________ Member of Peugeot Sport Club Swedenhttp://www.peugeot-sport-club.com/ My son: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzjSBKkMHDA |

No more negative camber  They are heavier than gti6 ones and only come with a 16mm balljoint socket. However it looks like you have a P1 6 so that probably has 16mm balljoints anyway. The other thing to note is that not all of them come with ABS so don't have the sensor hole. ________________________________________  Seat Leon Cupra FR / 306 GTI6 / Breaking 205 GTI6 / Caterham 7 / Mercedes Sprinter 311CDI LWB Sold: Fisher Fury - Laguna DCI Estate - P1 306 XSI - E30 BMW 325i Baur Convertible - Daihatsu Fourtack - Suzuki GSXR600 - 205 Rallye |

Iīve noted the ABS / Balljoint thing, belive i have 16mm balljoint actually, since itīs a -94 S16....Have seen comments here and there about the negative camber gain with 205 GTI (1.9 JA/JAZ) hubs and was seeking info with this questrion here. You absolutely positive thereīs no gain in negative Camber? Weight alone would keep me off it though  ________________________________________ Member of Peugeot Sport Club Swedenhttp://www.peugeot-sport-club.com/ My son: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzjSBKkMHDA |

they are no heavier, but the later hollow cast design used on the later 306's is meant to be stronger, though an S16 will have the same earlier type as the 205.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
