Cheapest and nicest way to get adjustable camber on your Skyline is with adjustable upper control arm bushes. You can use one on the outer arm only to get up to 2 deg neg camber. If you want to go really hard core then you can also use the same adjustable bush on the inner arm for over 3deg neg camber.

Ppl like Whiteline, Noltec and Nolathane make these bushes. The Whiteline ones are better then the Nolathane ones as the grease nipples in them are better designed...havent tried the Noltec so cant really comment.

Or you can go and try adjustable arms from the likes of Cusco, JIC etc. They are more expensive and wear quicker, and i suppose in theory increase NVH a little. They are a better solution if you want the top kit, but for a road car the bushes offer a nicer compromise.

Thanks Troy, so i just call up Whiteline and ask for R32gtr adjustable upper control arm bushes? Reason is i'm suffering from wearing from the inside tyres at the front. Any contract numbers by anychances?

Whiteline arent selling direct to the public anymore...but Autobarn are now dealers for them.

or just give Autobarn a call and quote the part numbers:

Front camber kit - KCA336

Adjusts camber +/-1.0 deg. But the std Nissan gear, combined with when the car is lowered give you the ability for about -2.0 deg neg, or as little as -1.0neg if thats what you want. They go afor about $320

Rear camber kit - KCA347

Adjusts camber +/-0.75deg. Need 2 kits/pairs for 1.5deg if used for the inner and the outer bush. About $150 a pair

Can i use the front only without worry about the rear yet as i havn't had any problem with it?

Yeh no drama at all.

In case you havent already tried, just make sure that this is the fix to your problem. If your car is pretty much the std ride height, and the front bushes are in fair condition, then it could be a toe/alignment issue...in which case the adjustable bushes will be an expensive fix

Well my car is lowred but not thing much ( VIC ) so it could be toe in/out, any recomend places for a REAL aligment? I've been to tyre power in morrabin before and they're just not helping my car all.

You still use your old number Troy? Oh are you in Melb first?

Thanks Inasnt, i'll let you know as soon as i find out what the problem is.

Cheers

I have Camber tops on my car, haven't messed around with it though.
Skylines have a double wishbone setup mate so won't adjust anything except the angle of the shock. It is for adjusting the camber on Mcpherson strut cars which is what's in the Silvia platform. Leave any playing to the suspension shop.
