And your natural camber may look like its -3 to you because all the cars now run -8 and above but trust it is probably around -5 through -6
Thank you for an actual helpful response. How bad was the toe before alignment

I have the Kinetix Rear camber arms and if you need to get over -10 why dont you find a longer turn buckle with the same threads? That will help you extend the arm. You will need that turn buckle to have left hand thread on one end, right hand thread on the other. You might even be able to modify front upper control arms, if you know how to weld, to get you more negative camber.

your toe will be off by a ton. i'm talking 2-3 degrees off and your car will drive everywhere.

I understand that some people want looks over performance, but what I don't understand is all the money spent on making a sports car slow.

It's like buying a Bentley, ripping out the interior, A/C, heater, radio, seats and all...then turning a 5-gallon bucket upside down and using it as a seat whilst you drive your "luxury" vehicle around town.

I'm running Kenetix UCA's on my Z. They seem to be built for more positive camber than anything else.

I had to modify my arms just to get in the high 2's.

Allow me to correct you...

Stupid to you might not be stupid to others. You can dislike a certain style but nothing should be stupid to you. You don't drive his car or any of the other low cars, you drive your car because you like it, but maybe people think your cars looks stupid?

I know there are people that think my car looks stupid A-Aron (stripes aren't for everybody). Unfortunately thats just how society is. I agree thats what other people are into and if thats what they like then they should go for that. I simply gave my opinion that aesthetically it does not please me
