OB '04 Coupe Premium w/Performance Wheel & Tire
This July my AT 2006 base IP sedan 37,500 miles, was marked $21,995 I brought that price down to $18,000. I don't care for the nismo body, instead I will do front and rear lips and the splash guards.
A. they are looking for automatic so its not a rev up
B. my 04 had the same problem when I bought it at 67,000, got a new engine I even changed the oil(which I why I stongly advocate warranties..lol)
anyways just out of err um curiosity, where would one get a nismo front bumper or high quality replica anyway?

Alignment RLQs:
Running sedan eibach pro kit, just had it aligned:

I'm picking up a rear SPC kit from Johnny Beast Foo mainly to get the rear left toe in spec and maybe even up the rear camber.
1- Would you drop the couple hundred for a front camber kit at the same time given these numbers? Front camber doesn't seem too bad, and the front left caster is just out of spec at 7.7 degrees.
2- I drive an X - anyone know which front kits do or don't fit the AWD?

I am no alignment expert but
I am pretty sure you cannot adjust camber in this car at all stock. And some how it was adjusted on your car
Rear Left Toe is way out of spec, and Thrust angle should be 0.

front no, rear slightly

I'm not sure I am going to get the front A-arms at this point. I'm curious as to whether people would go to the trouble for the way it sits right now, and if so what will fit the X. Maybe I should post the AWD question in the dropped X thread.
I'm open to suggestions but had looked at SPC for the front as well, which are probably close to $400 new. SPC does have caster adjustment. If I understand correctly excessive caster will make the steering less responsive, but I assume 0.3 degrees out of spec wouldn't be very noticeable.

I posted this in the "have a question about wheels" thread - no response...
I'm considering a used set for sale, need to decide soon... can anyone help?
Offset/Camber Gurus... do you have answer?
Current camber is -1.3 on all four... If I get wheels that are extend 10mm, how much camber do I need to be where I am now?
Specific specs:
current: 8.5 +15 (-1.3 camber) front and rear (sits 5mm inside fender line)
potential new: front 9.5 +17(extends 11mm), rear 10.5 +30 (extends 10mm)
I've never been able to confirm mm to camber ratio... I'm thinking 10mm = 1 degree (but I've read as low as 5mm = 1 degree)
If in fact its 10/1 will I now need -2.3 to sit where it is now? To add more question to the formula, I'd like to be about 3mm tucked from where I am now - so would that mean closer to -2.5 camber?... I'm calculating it as current -1.3 plus additional -1 for the added 10mm (and another couple tenths of a degree to bring it in a few more mm).
Hope the way I questioned it isnt too confusing
