Did a search, but still don't understand about camber kits. Please Help
 
If I am going to drop my G coupe for around 2", do I only need the rear camber kit? When do we need the front upper control arms and rear toe adjustment?

Thanks for helping me out

With a 2" drop you will probably need the whole thing if you want everything back to spec. You might get lucky by not needing some type of toe adjustment for the rears. I was not lucky and needed them to get everything back to spec.

As for the the front upper control arms, mine are out of spec, but my tire wear is pretty even. I'm sure at the time if they had a upper control arm available I would have got it. But at the present time, since my wear is even, I'm not going to get them.

what do u mean with lucky? Not all Gs are the same?
Also, are the rear camber adjustment arm and rear toe arm actually the same thing?

wreck Apr 17, 2005 06:35 PM

Not all g's are the same. For some reason I couldn't get my right rear toe back to spec so either I had to add more camber to get the toe to spec or buy an ecentric bolt that provided more toe adjustment range. Other people on this board were able to get away without an aftermarket toe bolt.

The camber and toe adjustment are different. Factory comes with two encentric bolts, one for the camber and one for the toe. I had to get a camber rod for my camber and a toe bolt for toe.

-2" you're definitely going to need a camber and toe kit.

Is the cusco front camber kit proved to be bad?

drtech Apr 20, 2005 03:50 AM

I read a post saying that the cusco front camber kit is bad, isn't it?
Did they do any improvement?

OvaYahead Apr 20, 2005 09:33 AM

I haven't read anything about them being bad. They are made very well. It's just that they are more for performance and do not offer a lot of postive camber adjusting.

Once you drop your car you're going to have a lot of negative camber and will need the positive adjustment to get it back in spec.

I have less then a 2" drop and needed rear camber/toe and front a-arm. You can find the SPC rear camber arm and toe bolt for 114 on ebay now days.

drtech Apr 20, 2005 12:34 PM

Where did u find the price 114 on ebay?
I only saw 219

OvaYahead Apr 20, 2005 04:21 PM

my bad it was for only 1 side. I didn't read the fine print. It's better to go with the 219 free shipping one

drtech Apr 20, 2005 04:41 PM

oh...I didn't know the one for 350z is the same as the one for the G.
I am looking for the a-arm too, probably will go for kinetix...cuz heard that the cusco ones don't have enounh degree to adjust back to factory spec
Anywhere to get a good price for them?

z_with_back_seat Apr 20, 2005 06:21 PM

Not to burst a bubble here, you need 2 kits to do the rear. The $219 price if I remember correctly is for 2 bolts and 2 arms. The ebay kit is 1 bolt and 1 arm. Read the fine print, 1 kit per wheel.

I need the bolt only so I am going to go straight to SPC.

I still need front arms, but I need to something like 350 Evo but the funds have been blown on other items and brakes will be needed first.

OvaYahead Apr 20, 2005 07:46 PM

z was right. it was for only one side. I edited my other post so no one falls for that one. I need 350evo's too, but blew my funds on tires and full suspension (minus the front a-arm).

:mad: everyone trying to make a buck off of using fine print on ebay.
