I actually just got back from Firestone from getting re-aligned again and my front camber was -1.9 and -1.8 with how low I am slammed..still not to bad.
All the talk about Kinetix arms snapping is really old news from their design about 4 years ago....

I'm not super low in the front right now and currently sitting at -0.9 with the Kinetix arms. If I were to go lower I can back out the camber bolt to re-adjust and go more positive.

With these a-arms, I am able to change the camber about a degree negative with 2 full turns of the camber bolt which I can do with a jack and a couple wrenches on the morning of a track day - without removing the wheel!

Hey Stephen, I spent less than 300 on my camber adjustment - how about you

Yeah JasonZ-Ya highly recommends the Kinetix arms - he talks about all the a-arms in his suspension 101 thread on my350: http://my350z.com/forum/brakes-and-s...ion-101-a.html

What about the Ichiba front A-arms? I never hear that much about these, but they are a decent price.
I am dropped up front 1.8" on springs and I am out of spec about 1 degree. will these get me back in spec? (And I don't track, so I don't care about ease of adjustment)

Ichibas are fine. I ran them for awhile. They are copies of cusco and can b modified to get a lil more positive camber.

Hey jon I only spent 450 on my front and rear spl v1 arms. Although I do have over 3k in my suspension only

Nope, they were plug and play at my current height.

The hardest part was getting the 2 long bolts that hold the arm out and then back in between the spring without unbolting the shock tower from the engine bay. If I were to do it again, I would probably unbolt the shock tower.

Depending on your ride height, it is possible to back out the camber adjustment bolt too far which would then rub against the sheet metal inside the top of wheelwell.
