Stagea M35 Rear Camber


Recommended Posts

As the title suggests, does anyone know what components are available to increase the amount of negative camber in the rear of an NM35 Stagea? I'm slowly attempting to create a 'VIP'/'bippu' style build but I can't find a whole lot of parts to suit the NM35. Currently I have fitted Driftworks Front Upper Camber Arms to suit a 350z and have gotten to -6 deg happily but the rear is sitting at -5 deg with only a coilover installation. I do have 350z Rear Camber Arms but they seem to only be able to mount to adjust toe. At this stage its looking like most components will have to be fabricated.

Japan is always the best place to look first, to see whats available.

Following that, I think you have to risk attempting to fit parts from Y34/F50 for the rear upper arms and the rear spring bucket lowering perch

You could also use the Z33/V35 rear spring delete for full coilover conversion and additional toe adjustment (to allow more camber from the camber arms).

Or you can weld on some thread for rear spring bucket adjustment

OR (and probably the easiest method) is to fit offset bushes to the rear upper arm.
(i think its these)

Also, you said you have rear camber arms, but what about rear toe arms? its a must-have with camber arms because the camber arm adds just as much toe as it does camber....

I do have MCA Suspension 'Street Performance Series' coilovers installed all round dropping my ride height very low.

Since initially posting this thread I have seen a number of cars (none being stageas unfortunately) using an adjustable spring bucket as well as other components to adjust rear camber. 

I may try offset bushes before attempting to order parts from Japan. Thank you for those links. I haven't been able to find any to suit from my own research. 

I have said I have them but they aren't able to be installed for their intended purposes. They do, however, bolt in to replace the factory toe arm. All of the camber in the rear currently is achieved through lowering the car alone. 

Attached is a photo of how the stagea sits currently.

I know, even I was impressed. 

I think I may have to run the risk of fitting parts from Japan to get the desired camber. I'm not hugely keen on cutting and welding unless I absolutely must.

    • They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.
    • Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....
    • Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)
    • Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
    • Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
