Plus they have adjustable camber up front so it solves that issue. When i get home il add another link for the rear coilover they have an extension piece you get to run the adjustment for dampening into the cabin for the rear shock.

But hell adjustable dampening, rebuildable shock, adjustable camber up front, AND i can slam my car?! I say EPIC WIN all the way around!

Also i forgot to cross off pop charger and ztube off my list all thats left is tune for my bolt on list.

in red - sorry but our cars dont come with coils with that option .. you have top buy front camber arms ... just a FYI

Really? I thought we have front camber plates but not rear? If so then il make sure to purchase the camber arms as well. Snoop are you on BC coils? Also do you know if this is just a sedan thing?

all infinitis .....

im on tein coils now maxxed out ..

i had bc coils before these and they are great wish i kept them :/ but im going to either stance and KW's next and going lower

now..... if your not going to slam the car then front camber arms are a waste imo ... i mean you still get them if you want ... i have aggressive wheels on my car coupe off sets and i need as much camber as i can .. i have camber stuff to add more camber im -3.2 front and -5.5 rear

where are you located in tampa ^^ if your on a budget for under a grand F&F coils are great and you can just about lay frame with our cars ...

tein suck !!! im on the coils and they ride great but i cant get any lower then 4'' LOL

if you don't want to slam it then get springs .. cheap on the wallet and will last you forever...

as far as a body guy i deal with fast way auto body in Pinellas park ... he painted my front and looks great !! i don't know many guys around here in the tampa area maybe someone else does ...

where are you ordering you parts from ??

I don't know much about coilovers, but doesn't seem like there would be anything built in to allow for camber adjustment.

You mentioned "camber plates" a couple times. One thing that I did was install the shims from the SPC front camber kit to push the camber out a bit. I had some ichiba (adjustable) arms up front, but they wore out and I threw them away. So now I have just the shims (I guess they could be called plates) installed still with the stock arms (non-adjustable).

Just an option in case you wanted a little help with camber up front. You can probably get shims for hella cheap. But be careful, they might add too much positive camber.

Or be like Chris and don't care about neg camber. lol

Tires are WAY to expensive to not care about camber but thats my thoughts on the matter... I may put the G on hold a friend of mine just put me onto a bmw 325ci for 1700 and it dont need much either.....So i may be getting that and start drifting it. Wel see though havent decided if i want double insurance.
