Spl camber arms and tow bolt question.

svt to 370z · 03-02-2019, 10:35 PM

I plan on buying swift springs next month. I've been doing some research and most recommend the spl camber arms and toe bolts. Why are these recommended on the back and not the front ? I don't track and this is my casual weekend car( 2018 put 1000 miles on it. 2009 with 16k). I see the springs are about 314 the camber arms and bolts about 330. Would those be essential for my needs? Mainly looking for the drop. I'm also running 265 front 305 rear and have 20mm h&r spacers all round waiting to be installed too. Any info will help me understand this. Thanks guys

The stuff for the rear will allow you to put the camber & toe back to spec...as the front camber must not go sever enough negative for the “Fuca’s”.....but that would be the proper way up front

so its necessary so the tires don't wear unevenly in the inner tread

Too much neg camber will cause the tires to wear on the inside.

The toe bolts are pretty much a necessity. When I put on my KWV3 coilovers and went for a test drive, I couldn’t get over 25 mph without the car going all over the place. I set the toe out on the rear as far out as stock toe bolts would allow and it was better, but still not enough.

There’s this exact setup for sale in the classified section right now, except they have SPC camber arms instead of SPL.

That's hardly "this exact setup"! SPC doesn't compare to SPL.

Agreed, but since the OP doesn’t track the Z and is only interested in the drop, I figured it would work for him.

Agreed
