Camber on VW 1302 Super Beetle




Precise frontal camber setting was performed today on VW 1302 Super Beetle. Finally 40 minutes negative cambers were applied on both side, considering about the traction wheels are rear and another F/R vehicle, SXE10 TOYOTA Altezza has 48 minutes negative cambers, there is no way to refuse 40 minutes negative value. Still now right side tendency exists after adequate frontal camber application, supposing the reason, set back. swung rear end meaning different wheel bases on both sides, rear different camber thrust and uneven toe value meaning chronic and unacceptable trust angle. Deeper considerations and precise adjustments would be required so far as I intend to exceed the performance of Porsche 911 at the same generation. Very interesting results must be waiting after establishing all the tasks on this 1302 Super Beetle.
By the way, the meaning of Volks Wagen is the same as Generally ordinal vehicle, not specially fine automobile like expensive Porsches.
But the designer is the same person Professor Ferdinand Porsche, so the fundamental components are very similar sometimes are the same or more reliable because the ultimate performances were not designed for Volks Wagen, on the other hand the reliability and the lives of every constructive parts were put an emphasis on the imaginations.
So the constructions are rougher than that of Porsche autos and the precise adjustments were not performed because of production costs.
My idea is like this, the geometry setting in construction and wheel alignments adjusting were established so adequately on this VW 1302 Super Beetle as to exceed those of Porsch 911, true Super Beetle would be appeared on earth by my desperate efforts!
This is why I did not choose old Porsche 911 as my hobby, enjoying the restore as 1/1 scale toy model.
Right head light mounting horizontal level is not correct counterclockwise distorted, adjusting level is necessary, bulbs must be replaced into clear ones because the light value of yellow colored bulb would not be enough to pass the legal inspection.
The silicon material of connecting tube between brake fluid tank and master cylinder has some problem, pilling was found in spite of replacements, hose material must be replaced to another reliable one. Do I ask specific genuine parts or utilize meshed nylon tube?
Then almost of main targets of restoring are overcome, do I try to have legal inspection for license plate in this coldest season, the periodical inspection at the same season in every two years would be waiting in futures?
After finishing this 1302 Beetle I'll resign this hobby and move to Airfoil field to now the recent sing shape designs, including actual experiments by myself.
