Camber Plates

I saw pictures of the front arms, could have been a picture of a Z33 arm though.

Yeah the SPL front arms have not officially been released yet. I'll definitely check in with Kuah from SPL today regarding the status.

i hate quoting myself but i just received this from SPL

Hi Nick!

It is a project we are working on, but it will be a while before we have the finished product to sell as this is a complicated project...

ChrisSlicks

They must of decided to go with lower arms instead of uppers, that would be far more complicated.

Chris, you have the SPC front arms installed? how are they working out? i saw you had posted that your allignment got thrown out at one point? any other issues? i'm thinking of just not running a front camber kit at all, if possible.

ChrisSlicks

I have the SPC front arms yes. The alignment can shift under very aggressive driving, but I found that if you torque it tighter than their spec it seems to hold better. After getting an alignment I put a reference mark on the arms so I can check/reset them.

If you lower the car a little then you will gain camber that way and don't necessarily need the arms.

i'm probably gonna wind up with BC BR coilovers with SPL rear camber kit. for now i'm just gonna run stock camber arms up front. How low do you think i can/should go without having to run camber arms for the front.

I am good friends with (Kuah) the owner of SPL Parts and have known him and worked with them for over 4 years. I have helped with feedback and with developing some of their great products...
.. While we were talking today on the phone about a projects we are both working on we discussed the (about to be released) 370Z/ G37 SPL Pro front upper adjustable control arms (front camber arm). I have a order in to receive some of the very first shipments of these since I have a customer waiting list for these things. IMO, the other two offerings of this part that are out there are not worth bothering with...

ChrisSlicks

If you drop around 1 inch you will probably increase front camber to around -2.5, -3 degrees, and rear camber can be adjusted to around -2 degrees on the stock adjuster. The stock rear adjusters are cam bolts and those can lose their settings as well.

come on man, u gotta give us a bit more info!!! are they similar to the 350Z camber kit that uses plates?


dropping my car with tein springs on stune shock yielded about an ince drop up front. my camber went from factory spec to -1.6 degrees. handling is sharper up front, but im no baller and tires mean alot to me and my pocket book.

Scott @ RA

Yes
