Front camber... not adjustable?
 

Soooo I just got back from an alignment shop.

Arrived there in the hopes of dialing up camber in the front, to fix rubbing issues with my new setup.

As soon as I got there the dude announced that front camber is non adjustable for the 370z. :owned::owned::owned::owned:

Is this for real? Im dropped on swifts... However I need more neg camber up front. What are my options? Do camber kits for the front allow for adjustment in the negative direction? or just positive to bring it back to spec after a drop? Help guys :icon14:

your best option...... SEARCH


but no, there is no factory camber adjustability up front.

Given that the word "camber" yields about 500 pages of results in the search I found it not too silly an idea to simply ask in a new thread. :ugh2:



And if you do know a thread that addresses this and that is why you decided it necessary to drop in that comment I would appreciate you sharing the link with me. Otherwise your 2c dont really help.

Search.

It's very common knowledge that you need adjustable front upper arms to change camber at all.

Thanks, thats pretty much the answer I was fearing. FML :owned:

You can add a degree or so with the cheap kinetix arms (what I have on the car currently).

Not that big of a deal, really.

rolled my fenders and pulled them slightly, everything fits beautiful :D

just to reiterate, the kinetix arms seem the same price as quality SPC fully adjustable (2.5 degree) front arms. perhaps im looking at the wrong place to buy them but it seems 375 is the kinetix, and 400 iis SPC.

SPC Upper Control Arms are great...I think that it would be worth the upgrade at some point

What shocks do you have? How much camber do you want?

I have Koni yellow + swift springs, with alignment set at -1.65*camber in front, -2.38* in rear and +.1* toe all around.

Stock sport wheels and tires with 20 mm spacers in F and 25 mm in rear.

I only needed rear arms, and apparently getting around -2* is doable without them, or so I was told.

:iagree: I have factory front arms with -2 camber, lowered on H&R springs.

pics? interested in seeing how much you rolled and pulled the fenders.

same here.

SPC Front control arms will be your best friend...worth every penny.

sorry for the delay.

Here is the outcome

eh.....yeah I'd rather not pull my fenders lol.

at least your not rubbing now:ugh2:

Funnily enough theres absolutely 0 visual of the rolled fenders unless you stare at them from right above the fender and look for the pull.

The car looks super clean from both the front, side, and rear, and the pull is not noticeable whatsoever. It flows super well.


To each their own however, if it's not your thing its not your thing - not much to be said there. I, however, am extremely satisfied with the results :D

I pulled mine just like yours. Looks good.
