How long does it take to install the SPC Rear Camber Kit
I'm finally getting my SPC rear camber kit installed and was wondering how long this should take?
I heard that drilling out for the Bolt is a pain in the ***.
Any info?
Thanks

it's the easiest mod you'll ever do - just make sure you have a high-powered dremel to cut out the hole (nice DIY on here somewhere for that). the arms are very simple. just make sure there is roughly the same amount of thread on each side of the adjustment ****.

one more questions:
I currently have 255/45/17 in the rear which will continue to use for drift days but am getting 295/35/18 for day to day this week; I also run the 26 x 10.5 x 15 Slicks at the track
will my camber/alignment be affected by that or do I not need to worry?

elite_350Z...
there are places cheaper than that, roughly 20% cheaper
but to earn the low price, you must search.
and i'm not talking about a private seller...i'm talking about a nationally recognized online retailer.
good luck

Hey - I don't have SPC rear camber arms - I thought you where trying to buy exactly what I have? Just - joking.
Your camber will not be effected by different wheel sizes, but you may want to set up different cambers for the different driving styles. For steet, 0 to -0.5 is ideal, for drag you want as close to 0 as you can get, for drifting I believe the ideal is around -1.5.

from what I understand is that 0 is perfect for drag racing, -2.0 is stock and -1.2 is as high as nissan recomends as a valid camber.
Don't you have to get an alignment everytime you change the camber settings?
