SPC Camber Rods/Toe Bolts? Reviews/Input please!

hey guys, since having my eibach springs on for quite some time, my camber has become complete sh*t. my tires in the rear look like they r gonna collapse inwards. its definately time for a camber kit. People who have the SPC camber rods/toe bolt, are you staisfied? I wanna go with SPC because they r the cheapest i hear, unless anyone else knows another brand??? Does any one have an exact price on the SPC's?? btw, i just wanna get it for the rear. the front will be fine for a little while. Any input greatly appreciated. Thx

i have the kinetix camber arms and the SPC toe bolts. that combo (or any camber rod with the toe bolts) works very well for correcting camber.

Re: SPC Camber Rods/Toe Bolts? Reviews/Input please!

I haven't purchased these yet, but I've talked with...

Peter Awad
with iapdirect
Toll Free: 1-888-359-0448
Local: 407-359-0448

and found out that he is about 15 minutes away from my house. Here is the link to the cheapest place that I know of that sells the SPC rear camber arms and toe bolts. The price shown is for both sides of the back, so $219 plus shipping will get you everything you need for the rears.

For the front, you'll have to shell out much more money. I'm waiting for cusco to come through with their latest design. Their front camber arms were scheduled to be on sale this month... but like everyone else, I'm still waiting for the details.

i saw the cusco arms at SEMA. they are nice, but they are really heavy, and don't look like they have much positive adjustment. i think they are mostly for dialing in negative camber.

Re: SPC Camber Rods/Toe Bolts? Reviews/Input please!

thanks for the link nefster. So that's all I need is some bolts a washers? I think I can get that from Home depot instead of spending 90 [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] .

I'm confused though. So if I just go with the $90 bolts I can can correct my camber up to - or + 3 degrees? If I get the control arm kit with the bolts i can get up to - or + 4 degrees?

For a $120 more you get another degree that's probably not needed?

Just get the kenetix camber bars and Spc toe bolt. I got one of the first camber bars, and while the shop could get the camber to spec, they couldn't get the left rear toe to spec, so I had to give up a little camber to get both of them in spec. With the bolt you can get the camber you want and the toe to your specification. I don't recommend the kinetix traction bar.

iapdirect.com sells the spc bolts, if you have camber arms you only need 2 bolts which is 45+shipping. i am gonna buy the 2 and put them in the toe position because adjusting camber causes toe problems.

i know i'm bringin' this one back, but why don't you recommend the kinetix traction bar also, here's something that i just found out today. i jus' made a post over at my350z.com.

a reason i wouldn't want to go with spc is because you actually have to drill. no thanks.
