Re: Camber question.
Remember, when asking about camber issues you need to draw a line of distiction between sedans and coupes. The coupe rides on shorter springs and struts and is effectively a lowered vehicle compaired to the sedan, hence the alignment specs are not the same for both vehicles(they are more aggresive for the coupe).
I have the LsdUnique camber arms, excellent product. They are also sold on ebay as Kinetex(did I spell that right?) I also bought the traction rods. The product is excellent, I only had to spread the mounting points apart a bit on the arms to get them to fit proper, no biggie.
Here's a cut and paste on my alignment experience from another thread. I needed to align because I am lowered on 350Z springs and struts (equal's a 1" drop)
I installed the camber rods myself, leaving the traction rods off on a hunch that I wouldn't need them (hunch was right btw and I'm going to sell them). I learned somethings on the alignment rack.
1. I really wasn't to far off on most all the specs, only thing that was odd was a lot of front toe in at .17
2. front camber was -1degree on the left and -1.4 on the right
3. rear camber was -1.7 both sides
4. rear toe in was .92 total
When I was done, I changed the front toe in to Zero, the Max spec for the front. I would have gone with a negitive number. But I wasn't convinced that the machine was showing a negitive or positive number. So rather than dial it the wrong way, I played it safe and went with zero.
The rear camber was set at -1.1 for handling sake
Rear toe in was set at .72 combined
