Is rear camber and toe controlled of the same arm?

What brands are good. Heaps of unamed brands on ebay. any good?

If i buy this kit will i have everything i need

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Nissan-350Z-Infiniti-G35-Front-Rear-Camber-Control-Arm-Adjustable-Kit-Blue-/261252599572?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3cd3de4f14

Please dont make this confusing.

thanks and yes i know its coverd in a million post but its get so confusing

I am fairly sure those items are all you will need to get your camber correct with a 1.5in drop. Although I am a bit suspicious of those front arms which claim up to +3deg positive camber. The best have seen is +1deg before the arms are too long and hit the guards, then shims are added to the hub to obtain more than 1deg of positive camber.

I don't think you will have any issues pulling the rear toe into spec with just the rear camber arms (but maybe someone with a 1.5in drop can confirm?)

I have approx. 1in drop on my sedan (350z springs), and was able to pull the rear alignment into spec with the stock arms.

A little more camber from a slight drop isnt worth spending 1K on adjustable arms. You can still get the alinement in spec without them roughly.

As long as your toe isnt all over the shop you wont be chewing tough tyres in weeks (unlike that time I chewed through a set in 2 weeks on my s14 because I had liek 20 mm toe out :P ) yes you might not get 50,000 km out of a set of tyres but even my car with all stock arms and lower easy 2+ inches (just tucking tyre with streched 19's ) and stock arms with 3+ deg camber coulds get toe to a aceptable amount has done 10 000KM on 2nd hand tyres without chewing them out so a new set + getting them flipped once start to get some camber wear shgould still last a decent time

I'm into this question too....Need more info here. I'm purchasing a set of Bc Br and want to get cambers and sway bars. these items i found on ebay looks like a steal at that price. apparently Godspeed is Tanabe rebranded and more good than bad from g35driver.com. What you guys think ??

http://www.ebay.com/itm/GODSPEED-350z-g35-suspension-sway-bar-front-camber-rear-toe-arm-rear-camber-/300803383628?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3AG35&hash=item460947614c&vxp=mtr#vi-ilComp

I would be careful buying ebay parts like arms and stuff, you get what you pay for ie theyre not crash hot and the bushes they uae are crap compared to if you spend 50-100 more.

Also shipping from the US is bloody expensive so i would try and source something from japan.

Our cars take all 350Z suspension so try searching that for a broader choice range.

I have coilovers in my V35 sedan and it was slammed (my lower control arms and subframe pulled reflectors out of the road) and it had so much camber i didnt need to buy camber arms.

BC BR coilovers as scotty said are great value. Most of us run then you can get em from just jap for 1399 i think with free postage. And that will lower the car 1.5 without even adjusting them.

yea i have read several reviews on g35driver.com. Majority have complimented these items as best bang for buck. Of coz I'm in no position to compare the Godspeed swaybar / camber kit with other brands like whiteline, cusco, eibach etc... but since i dont track my V, all i've wanted is just having a good looking street car with sweet drive :D. I also agree BC Br is a really good option.

Question: anyone knows somewhere to install coilovers , swaybars and camber in sydney for a good price/quality ??

Think of it like this. If you spend up big now chances are you wont have to spend much later. Spend little now and then send more later because the little you have spent has broken/failed. Think about it.

What would you buy a kogan TV or a Samsung TV?

Same thing.

    • Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.
    • I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
    • They do. The pale yellow translucent ones from Japan were .... I dunno. Useless? Whiteline and SuperPro are probably fairly similar. There's bound to be a range of different hardnesses amongst the dozens of options on the market. The simple fact is that the pineapples don't get up inside the bush at all. They just sort of exist in the space between the washer/bracket and the subframe's bush outer tube, and...exert a bit of force between them? Or something like that. I'm sure that with enough provocation, they will simply allow one to move wrt the other.
    • I'm not sure they came in different hardnesses? Going from memory only - I had set them up in the balanced setup. I also have poly bushes, so I have both poly bushes and pineapples. This is what my memory tells me at least. I'll have to take a look under there to be sure. The tramp was so bad that I managed to eject/kill a diff bushing, so those I know are stock. The tramp is bad enough that you are 200% sure you are doing severe damage to the car. It's not just chirping or vibration, it feels like you're hitting a speed hump/kerb 10 times a second. The issue has persisted between subframes! (I went from Hicas to non hicas subframe and replaced every bush a few years ago now) so I'm entirely lost. Every arm is factory.
    • Can recommend the Frenchys kit, been using it 2 years now with no issue, very happy with it.  Only thing for me was upgrading the thermo fan but I am super fussy on cooling.   Also interested in electric AC, partly for boot mount to have a clean bay and partly would love the idea of cooling off the car before i get in. The battery setup to do that might be tricky / expensive though.  Found this an interesting watch.
