It is nice to lock the alignment, but you won't have any adjustability, which means if the alignment got messed, your car handling will not be pleasant.
Naturally, when you lower your car, you will have more negative camber, the 370z rear will get more toe in as well (maybe all cars), if you ended up with too much rear toe in, you will get a slippery rear end with yaw sensor delete, if you didn't do yaw sensor delete, the traction control will hold you back. Also shorter tire life.
The real benefit of eccentric lockout kit is to have your alignment set where you want without slipping
IF you have adjustable arms. Not recommended if you don't have arms.
So, to sum up, it is either using oem bolts to adjust (camber - toe), or using eccentric lock with SPL rear camber arms and midlink, if you don't want to spend money on midlink, you can use oem bolt, or spc toe bolt if the stock ones didn't dial the toe back to recommended setting.
