Arrow Tokico DSP-9's and 350z S techs Alignment Specs. What do you think?

Before

Left Front Right Front

Camber: -1.8 (0.7 to -0.8) Camber: -2.0 (-0.8 to 0.7)
Toe: -0.12 (0.0 to 0.08) Toe: -0.30 (0.08 to 0.0)

Total Toe: -0.41 (0.0 to 0.16)
Steer Ahead: 0.09 (-0.05 to 0.05)

Left Rear Right Rear

Camber: -1.5 (-0.2 to -1.2) Camber: -1.3 (-1.2 to -0.2)
Toe: 0.23 (0.0 to 0.22) Toe: 0.06 (0.22 to 0.0)

Total Toe: 0.29 (0.03 to 0.43)
Steer Ahead: 0.08

After

Left Front Right Front

Camber: -1.8 (0.7 to -0.8) Camber: -2.0 (-0.8 to 0.7)
Toe: 0.07 (0.0 to 0.08) Toe: 0.07 (0.08 to 0.0)

Total Toe: 0.13 (0.0 to 0.16)
Steer Ahead: 0.00 (-0.05 to 0.05)

Left Rear Right Rear

Camber: -1.5 (-0.2 to -1.2) Camber: -1.4 (-1.2 to -0.2)
Toe: 0.08 (0.0 to 0.22) Toe: 0.07 (0.22 to 0.0)

Total Toe: 0.16 (0.03 to 0.43)
Steer Ahead: 0.01

I've got negative camber like a muthaF*! but I'm astounded that my toe is in spec with no kits what so ever! Anyone else out there with similar numbers who would still recommend a kit all the way around? If so, I'll get some for Christmas!

I say looks good, leave it. Little camber doesn't hurt as long as the toe is within spec.

SPC or SPL, you've got enough neg camber up there, you're going to wear tires fast.

I respectfully disagree with his front specs, see comment above.

How much of a drop did that give you?

Ehh, it depends on how you drive. Toe is by far more important since it will drag the tires if it's off, camber though depends on how hard you drive. I do mix of some track and mostly daily driving, and maxed out the stock camber at -1 degree, and i still killed my tires on the outside first. not even at the wear bars on the inside and middle, and outside edges are dying. For pure track driving, when you set up your camber correctly for the track (tire temp monitors), you actually get the most traction and the best (most even) tire wear, and it's usually in the -5 degree range or more. That saying, if you do mostly daily driving, you probably will kill your tires on the inside first with -2 camber; only one way to find out.

This set up gave me a drop close to 2 inches- 1.7 up front and 1.6 in the back. I maxed out the stiffness on the shocks/struts and absolutely love it! Of course I would love to go even lower but that's nearly an impossibility in Maryland. I scrape enough as it is at my current height. Once it warms up a bit, I'll wash her up and snap some pics.
