997.1 Turbo, the best adjustable front upper camber plates?

I'm buying new front upper camber plates and I want to know which ones are the best:
- http://gmpperformance.com/index.cfm?...ail&PID=233941
- http://www.tarett.com/items/996-997-...lta-detail.htm
- http://www.elephantracing.com/suspen...s-996-specific
Now I have OEM PASM with H&R springs but I'm planning to buy Bilstein coilovers WITH PASM
http://www.gmpperformance.com/index....ail&PID=187548
Any thoughts?

I have owned Tarett's, TPC's and now have Vorshlags. Tarett allows you to use the factory upper spring perch and bearing to handle steering rotation of the strut. Vorshlag uses a dedicated sealed bearing in the upper spring perch (which they supply) and will work very well with the B16's. They also have greater adjustment range.


You can see them in my build thread here

Plates have to work with OEM shocks/springs also because I can buy Bilstein coilovers maybe just in July or August...

Perches to work with OEM springs and retain OEM ride height are also available.

Stan's car is using a non-OEM spring, but here's a set of 2WD Plates with an OEM perch built for a Bilstein PSS10 kit.

Okay, I have H&R spring now(with OEM shocks) but I want to lower car more without loosing PASM and Bilstein PSS is the answer. That's why the plates have to work with both setups.
