There is a company called DJR that make camber tops but from what I've looked into their stud pattern isn't the same as our AUS Astinas.
Yellowspeed coils come with camber tops, ebay has camber adjustment bolt kits.
I'd suggest some heavy googling or wait for Derb to give you part numbers and codes for every BG bolt and nut EVER, of all time...

Where abouts are you located in SA blake?

Laser, Familia and 323 sedan are the same, but they're all different from ours. You'll have to get tops from an Astina wreck, or buy a set of BC Racing or Yellowspeed coilovers. You could probably get the tops from Mazda, but they would want ridiculous amounts of money for them.

You can try calling Repco, Bursons, Pedders etc... if it's just stock replacements you're after.

Rears are available. Fronts you have to buy a universal kit and machine to fit.

So buy universal camber tops and drill the required stud pattern? Sounds fun and custom and stuff...

FARK Even Mazda parts look well priced in comparison.

well if you want camber tops, then you gotta pay the big money. if you want just replacement rubber noise isolators, then just buy newbies from mazda.

cheapest option for custom camber tops would be to buy some 2nd hand ones from another car. just make sure the centre bolt/shaft will fit. and get a machine should to make a BG specific plate.

My guess is just replacement rubber isolators. Most of the other posts look like white noise.
