Swift springs review!!!!!

BG40thZ

I made a post over in the DIY section and have read this entire thread. I am getting ready to install mine this weekened. Does anyone know what the torque specs are for the various bolts that will be removed??

You should be able to download the Field Service Manual that is on this forum. It's very usefull and will have all your torque specs.

Edit: Here is the link to the FSM 2009 370z Service Manual Complete ready to Download!

When people say you're within spec on swift springs with no camber kit, it's more like you're maxing out on the spec. If you want to be at nominal spec, (-.67 front, -1.67 rear) then there's no doubt you will need a front and rear camber kit.

Will running slightly out of range camber have significant effects on your tire wear? I'm not convinced that's true.

If you are running at max stock specs, tire wear will not be too much different than stock. Now, if you go -3 or more, then you will most certainly experience significant additional tire wear.

Also, some additional negative camber helps handling performance substantially both in feel and turn in. Stock camber is suited for long tire life, not performance.

Correct. I am at -1.4 front and -1.9 rears and was told that was in spec. Is that the same as when stock? NO. Do I care? Nope. If I did care I would spend the ~$500 on camber kits! A little more negative camber is not bad, especially on the Z.

Tires are fine so far, 6K miles on them.
