SO I just recently added the Eibach Pro kit and SPC front control arms and SPC rear Camber Arm and Toe Kit, the only thing I see is that i had a used rear kit, and the toe bolt was messed up so we used the stock bolts and washers. When they aligned my car they said they cant get the rear tow within spec, they can get the toe in spec then the camber is off, wouldn't it be better to have the camber off a little then the toe? Now my car is screeching the tires when i drive and turn in the rear. I guess what I want to know is, can I buy a rear toe bolt kit? and this would help adjust it? I am not sure what I need?

 

You can buy the rear toe bolt kit separately--check out tirerack. They are under $60 for the pair. You need to do some dremelling to the car before you can install this kit. Many alignment places will not want to be bothered with aftermarket adjustable camber arms. If I were you, I would adjust these yourself with the stock arms as the starting length. Get both sides even and shorten length so that camber is in stock range (eyeballed). Then go to the dealer to get the toe zero'd out. Same with the fronts.

 

I'll say this much... if your Toe is way out, dont drive the car any more than you have to.
I dropped my car on Eibachs and drove around for about 6 weeks before getting my alignment done. The toe DESTROYED my tires.
Now that I have the Toe back into spec, my tires wear perfectly, even with -2.5 degrees of camber in the back.
Toe is a tire killer if it's not set right.

 

yeah i know, i dont even want to drive it ,but I only have one car now, so I need it to drive, wont be driving much though as soon as i get the toe bolt kit, i will go get re aligned somewhere else. Is there anywhere I can find the template for widening the eccentric hole on the subframe? or does someone have one they can email me? I actually have the toe bolt and washers in my garage, i jsut think my mechanic didn't know what to do with it lol. I had no instructions just the parts and the box. I think he thought thattoe bolt kit went with the toe arm, pretty sure it goes up more right?

 

Yeah, if no instructions, he would definitely not know what to do with it. There is a good How2 I think in the 350z forum if you search. For a template, contact SPC directly. I'm sure they will email you one that you can print out. You only need to dremel the inner sides, two places on each side. The dealer should not have left your toe jacked up. They should have let the camber be on the negative side--I think that's totally irresponsible. Like I said, A lot of places do not want to mess with your adj camber arms.

Edit: found the template for you from SPC's website.

great find Mish. Thanks. Yea soo, the toe bolt kit I had the washers were messed up, so I have to order that kit and I think I will be all set. Need to get them Asap.

 

Yup. I have Eibachs too with front and rear camber kits, and the alignment specs came well within stock range.

 

For now take it to the dealership and tell them to not worry about the amount of camber (could be as high as -3.5) and make them put the toe in spec. Tell them to set the toe bolts full inward (toward the diff) and then adjust camber until the toe is in spec (believe me, it does work that way). You will be fine with that camber for a few thousand miles without noticeable wear, but with the toe off that bad you will eat those tires up in 250 miles or less.

 

I am goning to park the car for a few days until I get all my parst in, I am doing the Akebono BBK, as my brakes are metal on metal right now, probably not a good idea to drive on them anyway, and when i get my toe bolt kit, i am going to get everything realigned.

 

I had that same problem. I just took it back to the dealers and had them fix the toe and put me back at a negative camber.

Akebonos are great. I have them on my car right now. You can feel the difference in stopping.

 

I cant wait to put the Akebono 's in.

 

i cant wait for my akebono hoping to get mine within the next month or so

 

I ended up jacking each rear side up in my driveway yesterday and adjusting the camber arm myself by eye. the drivers side looks perfect now, the passenger side is better but has alot of negative camber, but i drove it after i did it, and its ten times better than it was. I am not going to drive the car till I get all my parts put on wed.
