soooo your saying you lowered the front and the camber didnt change??? how can the factory height be set with perfect camber settings, and still be "perfect" after you lowered the car??

after my tein drop my front camber is now -1.6 degrees w/out camber adjustability. just sayin

The tech, which by the way a lot of modded cars go to, showed me the screen. The alignment was right on spec with the OEM specs. I told him initially that I might need Camber Kits for either front or rear, and just try to get it back to spec as much as possible... ended up not needing the kits after the alignment was done.

I noticed no one with a non-nismo Z has posted alignment results for the Tein's so I'm assuming that has something to do with me not needing new arms.

Good to know.

Maybe his TEIN only lower .8" F and .7" rear like others who said it was lower than that.... Just an idea.

I am perfectly fine with a little negative camber, even if it's off a little from OEM specs. It's the excessive camber you don't want for a daily driver. My G35 had some excessive camber and the tires lasted to around 25K so I was happy...

They are a little stiffer than the Nismo S Tune, but others claim they feel better and less harsh.

Really? H&R is lower than S-Tech? That's crazy!
