2003 nissan 350z negative camber problem
I do not like or want the negative camber on my Z I'm wondering if anyone of you guys put the camber kit on it to adjust it to be Level or maybe close to level and does it effect your driving after. I'm a slow pretty slow driver and dontd want to put a lot of money into new tires but i can deal with it if it effects the driving
Note: the car is not lowered that we know of

I think you are “vilifying” negative camber. If you always drive in a straight line and never turn your car left or right, neutral camber is appropriate.
However, if you do turn to the left or the right, you need negative camber so that the suspension can “lean” (the wheel goes to neutral camber while turning in).

Problem is, since there's no natural camber adjustment on the car, indicates something's worn or broken IF NOT lowered. In that case, whatever it is needs to be tracked down and FIXED, not hidden with alignment hardware.

Same Problem-Fixed
Having the same problem on my350Z, years ago; I went to get the alignment and found out there were camber problems on the front wheels.
My alignment was corrected and I installed a pair of Front Upper Adjustable Camber Arms. They have settings on the top for negative five degrees, positive five degrees and zero.
I own the VQ35HR 2008 Z and used the alignment print out to fix the camber problem. This may fix your issue, but I found out tires only last maybe two years maximum on the Z. Depending on how you drive, burnout and such.
Installation takes removing the tire, upper camber arm bolts and nut. Reverse order installed.
