webber Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 Hi all, I'm looking at buying the Eibach pro 30mm all round lowering springs, and I'm currently running a set of Rays on 20mm spacers all around. I'm just wondering if I'll need a camber adjustmet kit as well? And if so will I need front and back kits given that I'm not lowering it by much? And also I've noticed that Eibach do a camber toe bolt kit which is only cheap, is that likely to provide sufficient adjustment on its own? I imagine a few people on here will have had a similar set up so any advice will be greatfully received Quote
ZMANALEX Posted August 11, 2009 Posted August 11, 2009 30 mm is quite a drop so you will require the top wishbone kit to get the camber back into line on the front You should get away with the toe and camber bolt kits on the rear. Quote

I am also considoring this. Alex do you suplly top wishbone kits and toe and camber bolt kits? If not where could I get them from. Thanks Quote
Dblock Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 also my old car was lowered by 40mm by shocks and springs and it only needed 4wheel alignment why is the 350z different is it just akward or something else Quote

Start with CS or Envy but there are others. The answer to your other question is that the stock zed does not have a facility to adjust the camber on the front, so adjustable ball joints must be fitted to allow adjusting the camber back to oem settings. Toe is not an issue on the front. On the rear there is limited adjustment for the camber with the oem snail cams, so larger bolts are fitted to help solve this issue. If the new camber and toe bolts do not do the trick then adjustable arms will have to be fitted. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Thanks Alex, I have the parts above available.... Quote
webber Posted August 12, 2009 Author Posted August 12, 2009 Some really useful info there, thanks all I'll get saving for the necessary camber kits, don't fancy premature tyre wear really! Quote
Dblock Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 Thanks Alex, I have the parts above available.... Could you pm me the prices please thanks Quote

Stew Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 tried the sport kit but I have no complaints about the pro kit at all. Quote
Coby Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 OK Cheers, Is there a difference on lowering as in general Sport's are lower then Pro's aren't they?? Quote
Coby Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 Whats the drop like with Both Kits... Pic comparison would be great. Quote
Adriank Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 I have pro kit on mine, its low, i have 19's and still scrape on bumps/ramps. Sport kit not needed, would be too low for std dampers IMO. If you want lower than pro kit, buy some coilovers. You WILL need rear camber arms, whichever you choose. Quote
