This is interesting, as the Z has rear negative camber in stock form, around -1.5, which will increase if you lower the car, but this isn't the full story, when you lower the rears, the toe will be more inward. More negative camber isn't that bad, but excess toe in is bad, this will make the rear more tail happy, and it increases unusual tire wear. |

Stock 370z has eccentric toe bolts to adjust camber and toe in the rear. There is Zero front adjustment. The flaw with these bolt should is that they slip over time. SPL sells these SPC (note difference) to toe bolts which REPLACE the stock toe bolts and offer slightly more adjustment. They have the same flaw as stock bolts but they are a cheap option for non high performance use The SPL ECCENTRIC LOCKOUT kit replaces the rear camber and toe eccentric bolts and ELIMINATES ALL ADJUSTMENT from them. They become "locked" in place, hence the name lockout kit As stated in their description, this kit is for folks who have their rear adjustable arms, because THATS where the adjustability lies. The arms are more stable and offer more precise alignment capability, far superior to the oem eccentric bolts. So you get rid of the failure point of the eccentric bolts and gain the greater adjustment of the arms ....but you have to get the arms If SPL suggest the replacement bolts, I'm sure it was because you were squeamish on the phone about suspensions mods and they figured you were being a baby again about suspension modifications in your sports car |

Maybe you should read what i wrote and say thank you?
Funny you wanna talk about doing things easier and not wasting time when this whole thread has been folks using THEIR time to help YOU, and all you got is excuses and whining about your feelings Seriously, don't worry about me. You came to this forum for help and multiple people have been generous enough to provide info, including me. Show a little goddamn apprecation If all you wanted was affirmation about you already knew and wanted to do, go find a mirror and lick it. |
I think, ultimately, SPDKING just needs to educates himself on camber, toe, and caster. Since his car is not a daily, and he seems to be a novice in terms of tackling corners, he has time to sharpen his skills and discover things for himself.
If he’s only keeping this car for a short time, all these talks may just be a moot point. However, he should follow suggestions here if all of following applies: -he’s serious about throwing the car around corners -he’ll keep the car for a few years -he has the financial means to do everything up front (which can save mucho $ in the long run) |
