Rear camber links?

tommyguns · 06-19-2013, 12:00 PM

Getting ready to order some RE 11's in a 305/30, so I'm guessing it's time for camber links. My question is, what is the peoples choice? I have no clue what to look for as far as the difference from one brand to the other.
Thanks in advance,
Tom

I used SPC. They're fine for street use. From what I've read, SPL is a better product (with a higher price tag) that would probably be overkill on a street driven car.

tommyguns · 06-19-2013, 12:06 PM

Yeah it's about $100.00, which can go to the cost of the TIRES!

Chuck33079 · 06-19-2013, 12:07 PM

Or to a set of toe bolts, since you're springing for an alignment either way. Might as well get everything you need in the rear so you don't end up needing it later.

tommyguns · 06-19-2013, 12:31 PM

Didn't know I needed that. Could you please recommend a set.

Chuck33079 · 06-19-2013, 12:34 PM

I used SPC all around. Front and rear camber arms and toe bolts. Z1 has a bundle that's priced really well. My alignment wasn't off by much, but these tires are pricey. Getting full adjustability so you can be perfect on alignment specs will save you a fortune in tires.

SPC Rear Camber Arm (370Z / G37) It looks like this is what I need, looks to come with both.

Chuck33079 · 06-19-2013, 12:44 PM

I think tey just reused a pic from another item. I doubt they're included. I bought this package SPC Front and Rear Camber Arms Package With Rear Toe Bolts

One question, I plan on keeping this car around a long time (my kids want it passed down) and the one thing that stands out with the SPL is a bearing instead of a bushing. So for the long haul would it be better to go with the bearing.

Chuck33079 · 06-19-2013, 12:49 PM

It would last longer, yet transmit more noise and harshness. It's a tradeoff. I'm never doing spherical bushings again in a daily driver. Ever.

tommyguns · 06-19-2013, 12:57 PM

Ok, that's the definitive answer I was looking for. The last thing I want is noise and forget the harshness. I just contacted Z1 and I'm waiting on an answer as to whether or not the bolts are included. Either way I will be going with you suggestions. I really appreciate you taking the time to educate me.
Best regards,
Tom

Not a problem. You'll save yourself a lot of grief by getting the alignment dialed in before you buy a set of huge soft tires, that's for sure. It's one of those things you'll be doing sooner or later, it's just a matter of how many sets of tires you want to fry before you do it.

I don't have any experience with those, but the vast majority of this forum goes with SPC or SPL. These aren't "fun parts", they're "necessity parts" so there's not much to be gained by going off the beaten path or trying something new.

tommyguns · 06-19-2013, 01:09 PM

Good answer my friend. No more searching for me, going with the proven winner. Thanks again. You've been repp'd
