Hi Cristian
Question on the RX4 conversion
What shims do I have to put under the blocks to achieve the exact same roll centres as T4 kit?
Are your 'recommended' positions on the sheet giving the kit track width?
Thanks

On the roll centers, the rx4 pins when used with no shims are the same height (measured side by side) as the stock T4 with the -.75 arm holders. So adding .75mm will get you the kit settings. That said, the car *will* roll more than the stock t4, so going to 1mm is a good suggestion.

I ran the RX4 chassis on my T4 (plate only) at the IIC and loved it. Qualified 6th in the stock A-main but a sweeper tumble ended me at 9th. The car had loads of steering all week and was still incredibly responsive to small setup changes.
Highly recommended

The RX4 kit should have come with initial recommendations. The sheet that came with mine said front inserts should be single dot outside ff and fr, and 2 dot inside for rf and rr. My measurements show the recommendations sheet being pretty dead on with stock T4 in the front, and more toe in the rear ~.5 degrees.
That said, here's a sheet I made up that represents what I have seen and measured, I've not measured 100% of the positions, but it should extrapolate well. I am running the stock XRAY settings as indicated on the sheet, available here. Note, slight variations in tightening down the blocks can cause a bit of skew, so use these as a reference, YMMV.

Like you, 2 dot outside RF and RR results in about 3.5* of toe... and I thought about doing 2 RF / 3 RR to get down to 3* but seeing your chart makes me wonder if I should go w/ that 1.5mm narrower setup and put on the +0.75mm hubs?

method for removal?
I would like to hear ideas about how to remove the plastic inserts from the aluminum--- without damaging either.
If you needed to adjust toe or width and needed to change one insert for another--- how do you get thhem out?
I tried several different toools--- small sockets, a piece of wood and almost damaged one with a large hex wrench and tapping lightly on it.
they really don't seem to want to come out in the same form they went in.
thx,
