Well, Spring is here and I'm in the process of getting my winter supply up of mods installed. Last week I did the Spacer, Bats GTR overlays, and Bats Eyelids. Today I had my H-techs installed as well as my stock 18's. Next week is the OEM fron lip.
My camber in the rear is a little out -2.08 (spec he said is -2.04) I let him do the alignment today, but I'm going back 2 weeks from now to check it out after they settle a bit. Is my camber really out of spec? Do I need camber arms?
Oh yea and he said that my right outer toe rod was worn out and to call infiniti becuase it should be under warranty. I called and made and appt and the guy said they will replace both sides. Has anyone's outer toe arms worn out on them, and what causes it? Ok onto the pics!

looks good man, sexy.

 

looks good makes me want to drop my car...any difference in ride quality

 

To be honest, I think the G rides to soft in stock form and was hoping these would tighten the ride up a bit. Sadly I couldnt tell a big difference in ride quality, if any at all (and I was really trying to tell). Its a win win for guys who want to keep the same quality.

 

Nice I might have to look into them this summer

 

How much was it for the install on the springs?

 

I have 350z springs and my buddy has the G springs. When he gets in my car he always bitches about how stiff my car is. I also think its stiffer.

 

drop looks good

 

Funny you say "Spring is here" while im looking at all that snow there! Id be that guy bundled up in 2 coats, 2 sweaters and long johns.

O, nice drop, subtle but nice

 

I didnt get a comparison on my stock rims. When I went this mornin I brought the car wih 17' snows. They did the springs and put on the stock 18's. I personally dont feel a big change.
But I hope your right and it is in fact stiffer becuase I like stiff suspensions. I dont like the riding on air stuff.

 

Looks GREAT! Thanks for sharing so many pics-gives me a good idea as to what to expect. However, the pic of the passenger rear tire has me concerned. The pitch/angle (no, i'm not hip to the hop of mechanical terminology) of that tire looks....not right. Shouldn't it be more....perpendicular?

Its to much negative camber.I was talking about it in the original post I made, that you quoted. To keep the wheel in spec it needs to be at -2.04 or less. Mine is all the way out and it is at -2.08... And I actually asked a question is camber arms are needed to correct it or is it not to extreme?

 

I'm in the same boat as you are. The TEIN 350Z H-Techs bring our alignment to the MAX negative that the spec allows. My right side is JUST INSIDE THE STOCK UPPER LIMIT. My left side is JUST OUTSIDE THE STOCK UPPER LIMIT.

Bottom line, you need SPC rear camber arms at a minimum. Then can be found for ~$216 + shipping if you search long and hard enough. (Send me a PM and when I get home I'll send you the link to where you can buy them at that price). The way I look at it is like this...

Our car is a Rear Wheel Drive. The rear wheels will wear out MUCH FASTER than the fronts. If the camber is a little negative in the front and at spec "nominal" in the rear (as long as you're not racing on a track) your wear from front to back should be "more equalized".

This will save you money on front camber adjustment and it will keep you buying 4 tires at a time which is a good thing, especially in wet conditions.

Just my opinion.

 

Neffster,
My front cambers are in spec. Its my rears that aren't. My left rear camber is all the way out at -2.08 and the right one could of gone into spec he said, but he evened them out on both sides, thus setting the right to 2.08 as well.

Neffsters, do you know if my rear outer toe arms will affect the camber at all? Becuase my right one is worn out and is being fixed by infiniti next week

 

Looking good.

But looks like you jinxed it, because we are getting snow tonight
