This configuration isn't compatible with either the VN or i30N. How does this cross over to either model? This type of setup requires a complete replacement of the coilovers and strut combination and no retaining of the OEM ESC.
In fact it's no where close to what is required. What your displaying will not work with the OEM ESC configuration.

Both VN and i30N also have different struts, mounting points & strut carriers. Strut parts numbers are the same.
Both the VN and i30N utilize a cathedral bearing setup. With the either the VN or i30N the OEM ESC requires a progressive spring rate, with the real possibility of having to trim the bump stop as well. Due to the chassis design mounting points the camber slates need to seat into the chassis carrier mounting recess, with a pillow ball configuration. So, anything with a flat surface will not retain the necessary stability to hold the upper perch or strut securely in place under specific lateral to forward/aft suspension loading. Refer to the attachment below;

Veloster N )/ (
i30N) Respectively
So one or the other needs to be focused on. However, what your displaying above will not be compatible with either based upon suspension dynamics and configurations.
The proper camber plate assemblies will be required for the VN and i30N due to the strut mounting points. The VN can utilize the addition of camber bolts, which are readily available. Most of this has already been covered quite extensively in other threads.

Frankly, this is not a backyard DIY project and requires specific attention to fitment and calibration. It will require the use of a suspension geometry jig and alignment tooling with the specific knowledge and understanding of suspension geometries.
A Suspension Geometry Jig is very expensive ($6K-8K), not to mention the understanding and knowledge to make sure the proper geometry is achieved and time to ensure proper alignment of the suspension components. There's far more involved than bolting on some universal camber plates, coilovers and spring kits. Then taking it to your local alignment shop and voila' your there.
This is one of the reason I ask the op specifically, how he envisioned and purposed to attain a sufficient result.
Such a project involves far more then just adjustment of a vehicle’s suspension. It is not an adjustment of the tires or wheels themselves. It's also more than just setting; camber, toe, caster and tire balancing. There is far more to proper suspension alignment, than adjusting the angles of the tires, which affects how they make contact with the road.
When you change spring rates and heights you effect more than just ride height, compression and rebound, loading and unloading of chassis components. You first have to consider; ride, road holding, and cornering as well. There are a plethora of settings associated with these three factors. These include chassis balance & overall chassis dynamics, etc. It's much more involved then is simply imagined here. None of which are being thought of or spoken about but nevertheless are extremely important and drastically affect the entire chassis.
When you change one suspension component, it affects the entire chassis. A chassis/suspension dynamics pros knowledge and understanding is required to balance the entire chassis. I can go much deeper into the finer aspect of chassis and suspensions adjustments. However it won't serve a purpose, other than to demonstrate how one change in the suspension, drastically affects the overall chassis dynamics. I learned suspension setup and attained the knowhow, over years of racing both motorcycles and cars.
It's not something to guess about or as simplistic as bolting on universal DIY suspension parts. There's always a means to the madness and a purposeful dynamic that has to be consider, for each venue and sub venue; daily road use, combined track/road use or track use. Get it wrong and you cause problems with safety, longevity and chassis/suspension performance.
I think before we get to carried aways with a backyard mechanic version of a DIY coilover project, some need to realize what is actually involved.
For example, take a look at Dan Bushell's thread ,with specific note to the Forge Motorsport prototype camber plates and what was requires to make them a viable part of the entire chassis/suspension. Post # 793 for starters.
They didn't do the voting on FB??:confused: Should have it would make it not so close.:) The RX7 isn't streetable either.

Keeping in mind,well before this, Forge Motorsport has put in a a lot of research and development of the Camber Plates alone. Something that is not being spoken about here. You can't get into specifics of any project until you understand the entire picture and what in reality, is truly involved.
Personally, I don't see the necessary knowledge, understanding or ability being demonstrated here.
(no offense intended) There's just far more factual information to be considered and understood when engaging in such a project. Hence the term "
bench racing."
