Lowest I've really seen them is $700ish for the mid links?? Going to mount KW V3's with front and rear camber kits and see where that puts me...can always mix things up if need be.

fyi, you have to use 2.5" springs with the midlinks. i believe oem-style coils, like the kws, are 3.5". spl sells a swift springs that go along with it. https://www.splparts.com/store/produ...hp?pid211.html

unless i measured incorrectly

Amuse370z will become famous soon enough

Should I order a camber kit before I try installing them?

If so, will only the rear be enough? I plan on buying SPLs.

Yes, there's no modification needed. Its straight forward. The only part of the process that takes time is taking the front springs off the strut mounts (which you had to do for your springs). The rears are OEM setup where the spring goes in the OEM bucket. Very straight forward install.
