That looks perfect, are you on coils or springs?

Thank you sir, Eibach Lowering springs.

But car looks lower because of Varis Lip kit.

OptionZero · 11-30-2018, 10:40 PM

time to throw those springs away and go full coilovers so you can get some real stance

I would, but only reason I won't is because I don't want to make my car anymore illegal than it already is, coils are illegal here in SA, Aus.

To get coils I would have to first get them engineered. But I already have a whole list of mods that are already on the car that need to be engineered to make them legal. A huge cost ahead of me.... ;(

Went 285/35/19 front and 355/30/19 rears
(19x12 front & 19x14 rears)

Koenigsegg's have less tire lol.

I’m thinking Rusty is out of town for a week or so; i’m Pretty sure he had no fitment issues in the rear w/stock suspension & -1.75* camber.
I had to replace my traction arm bolts w/smaller head ones...when I ran 345/30/19 invo’s on 19x12 et38, as I ran only -1.0* camber out back. My pinch point was the traction arm & had about a finger between shock. But I’m 10mm further inward than Rusty.
Hopefully this helps you; as I’m sure he’ll reply when he returns

Thank you for your help! Its only another 10 mm on the inside but with 12's we're already cutting it close

You should be fine with factory negative camber(or close to it), as I tried to stand mine more upright for max traction while launching

I never rubbed & had clearance as tight as 1/4”

Haha well I am at -2.4 all around, I might go back to around 1.5

OptionZero · 12-22-2018, 05:51 PM

i would never worry about the inside clearance on the Z34. Its a fuckin' cavern

For most set ups. Clearance at the top of shock, coil over becomes an issue with something close to mine.
