Front camber arms

bucketman · 08-01-2010, 04:40 PM

I'm looking to get some negative camber on my car for track events and autocrossing. Anyone have experience with the Kinetix or SPC adjustable front camber arms? I am hoping to be able to change the camber at the track. If anyone has used these, how easy is the adjustment design? Does anyone else make an adjustable front camber setup?

Have you tried looking into how much adjustment you have with the stock arms? Your stock arms have a lot of adjustment in them.

I haven't heard of the Kinetix arms but I know some of the people running the SPC front arms were having issues with them and throwing off the ABS system. I would say that unless you're running out of adjustment capability with the stock arms, keep them.

We cannot adjust the front arms on the 370z...
SPC may have some issues.
Kinetics I am not sure I like the look of their design.
SPL hasn't came out with theirs yet.
Eibach has one too I think but it's expensive

I wonder what those issues are? ABS? It looks like you may have to break the top ball joint on the Kinetic's to adjust, as I see only one locking nut. Did not know Eibach made anything for this, I'll have to do some looking. This is to get some serious negative camber, mostly for autocrossing and maybe a little bit of negative for lapping days.

Eibachs are $470 for the fronts btw

SPL would be your best bet if you can wait? I'm shocked they haven't came out by now. I don't believe there was that much change from the 350. So you'd think there wouldn't to much R and D on the 370.

Cusco has them in japan as well as a few other Japanese companies... they look really good!
