I also found that tire width affects your choice of camber settings. The stock 275's were fine at -2.8 but the 305's were way too wide for that. Moving it back to -1.2 on my weekend pleasure car gained me:
1) flush look with 20mm spacer
2) better tire wear
3) good to great grip and performance

My fronts are still at -1.7 (no front camber arms) but I would like them moved back to about -1.3 to -1.5 just to look more flush and have less wear. But I love the cornering and handling at -1.7!

Hey guys...for those that have installed your springs...is it a bit weird that one side is slightly lower than the other? I know the springs still need to settle...but the driver's side is lower right now. Anything to worry about?

I did not experience this, but I know other people that had that issue and my understanding is that the springs do settle and even out.

Have one less charburger for lunch and it will be fine in a week....

:tup:

So whats the verdict on KW V3s versus koni+ swifts combo? What model Konis are you guys talking about? Keep in mind that I may want to autocross my NISMO from time to time.

Finished the installation of the front springs last night so now all 4 corners have Swift springs. Car settled a bit overnight and I can say I thoroughly enjoyed my 32 mile journey to work today. Though the car feels a bit "floaty" because the springs have to settle...the ride is exponentially improved over stock. As others have stated...the springs really do absorb many of the bumps, but also stick through the corners. I'm looking forward to the next couple of weeks as the springs settle a bit more. After that it's time for the alignment!!

I'll post some pictures early next week!

That sounds good. :tup:

Sweet, thanks for the info guys, I didn't realize this. After I get my engine mods done and my Uprev, this will be my next purchase.

Anyone had a issue with 20mm spacer on the front?? I just want to make sure before I install front spacer! Thank u!

Are you lowered? The stock springs will bring the sport wheels/tires too close to the fender with a 20mm spacer. With a drop, the increased negative camber makes a 20mm fit nice and flush...

Im lowered on swift! Thanks ! Ima camber it to -1.7

I'm gonna be on swifts with base wheels, with 20mm front and 25mm rear spacers, will my camber be too negative? will i need to get camber arms front/rear?

Atleast camber kit for the rear.

I just needed toe bolts for the rear after swifts and 20mm spacers all around. Rear camber is -1.8 after, I think. I need to get the alignment sheet from the shop to verify.
