Horrible ride quality and can't figure out why

Rusty

You can do it with a Dremel tool. I believe you get a template with the toe bolts.

I'm in greater fort lauderdale area. I wouldn't mind going as north as west palm beach, or as south as miami.

yeah, I'm just worried about messing up since its the actual subframe I'm cutting away from. Unless a lockout kit would be able to fix a hole that 's too big or not exactly the correct shape?

But wait a second, are you guys telling me that every single Z that's on coilovers at the very least needs to get FUCAs, rear camber arms and spc toe bolts if they want to get their alignment in spec and/or get their ride quality right? And based on it being due to the lower ride, wouldn't this apply to lowering springs too ? would I be able to avoid all this if I just raised the car about half an inch ?

That would be a yes on lowering springs. You can slide by but it won't be close to spec and tire wear can get ugly quick depending on the toe settings. I am very funny about my alignment settings, I can't stand a darty car.

I honestly am very glad you understand what I mean and are saying this because I really can't understand how anyone would think this ride quality is acceptable, let alone expected to be performant.

I just watched a video on the spc toe bolt elongation and it doesn't look too bad, but I still rather avoid cutting the subframe if I can. Is there really no other way to get my alignment in spec without using the spring bucket arm to adjust the toe? I know they make adjustable traction arms but what exactly does that adjust and why can't I use those instead?

I do still have the true rear bc kit that I swapped out for the oem style, and if I put that back on, I would just need to replace spring buckets with adjustable toe arms, but **** man, there's gotta be an easier way to do this. Z's are known for there great handling and here I am literally hating the way it handles
