Here's the write up I did on the complete SPL front suspension install.

Got the Nismo aligned today. Specs are; front camber -2, caster +6, toe zero. Rear is camber -1.7, toe zero. Raining today. Didn't want to push it too hard. Will have to wait after I recover from foot surgery. To push it harder. That will be 4 to 6 weeks. Just in time for snow.

From my driving today. The road noise is about the same. Steering is more inline on what you expect it to do. Going over bumps. I can tell the difference. More responsive.

the only problem doing the alginment was the sleeve collar bolts. They can be hard to get at if they turn when adjusting for camber and caster. It's best to have them LOOSE. Other then that. The adjustments was easy.

I forgot to post these pictures when I did my SPL camber arms. I also installed the Hotchkis billet sway bar brackets. Did I need them? No, but what the hey.

Also, I got a tube of the silicon grease that Hotchkis sells.
