SPC front camber arms?

synolimit

I'd agree for the rear but again these solid steel arms aren't going to break and give enough camber. If you want caster etc go spl.

For no track and occasional spirited driving what is recommended? I just don't want my front tires chewed up and the price of spl is insane.

Ams or kinetix. Zero chance to slip and will stay at whatever you put it during the alignment.

I'm on SPC for more than 10k miles already and zero issues, but as Andrew(DEpoint5) said you'll def hear a lot of bad reviews on everything. That's just normal

AMS (the Canadian one) makes Chinese knockoff junk. The Z32 guys started a petition to get them banned from ZCON. They're not the good AMS in Chicago that makes cool stuff. They even knocked off their name to piggyback off a successful shop. SPC is fine for daily driving. They've sold multiple times as many parts as the competition and we haven't heard that many stories about them breaking. You can break anything on track.

Well to me steel is steel and as long as the welds look ok I'm sure they will be fine. If it was a fitment part or something else I'd worry. I have lots of Chinese stuff. All is holding up well.

Is the front toe adjustable?

Yea, with the tie rod ends. That's the only thing adjustable on a stock front end.

Is there typically enough adjustment to get it as close to zero as possible with swift lowering springs and camber arms to get back to stock camber?

To adjust the front toe with the tie rod ends. No problem. Stock upper arms are non-adjustable for camber.

I went with Kinetix as right now mine is just a street car. No need for the SPL. SPC is fine but looks like it could slip (probably won't on a street car, though.) Shouldn't have to worry about that with the Kinetix. You just need to make sure the rod end is well lubed (get some white lithium grease) and the poly bushings are greased well with a waterproof silicone lube (like Hotchkis suspension grease.)



Not installing until Spring so I can't report on the function, but they look like they will do the job just fine. Just remember it's a maintenance item so make sure you have a grease gun with good poly bushing lube and some white lithium grease in spray can to keep the rod end happy.
