To Those with Tanabe Gf210's and Camber wear....
 

Hey guys...I have had the tanabe gf210's installed on my car for a couple of months now and have some camber wear on the front left inside and a little bit on both rears.

My question is for those that have tanabe gf210's and have camber wear on the tires....what did you use to bring the camber back into spec?

Im thinking of getting cusco a-arms but fear that the +.5 postivie adjustment may not be enough...i dont have the time and money to keep buying new tires...so i want to make sure and do it right this time so its the ONLY time.

and yes i have searched.

thanks guys!

i'd like to know the same. I don't want to get the spc or the other arms yet cause they require shock/coil combo.

Did you ever get your wheels aligned? Majority of the GF210 owners were able to bring them back into spec.

If you are in Socal, just call West End Alignment. They have no prob getting cars with just a spring combo back into spec.

im in stl, mo...so thats quite far away haha.

this is dumb...i got an alignment but they did give me a print out of the specs...and i suspect that my wheels are still wasting away. I then spoke to one person up there who said they save the specs and could print it out for me...i called today to see if i can get them over the phone...and another person said they dont save them....i just wasted my money.

You may want to find a place that does alignments by hand. The computerized ones only get it to within certain tolerances.

i have the gf210's and am pretty straight stock just with getting an alignment

so...if i do get the cusco....im bound to 100% get it in spec? correct?

Don't waste your money if you only have the springs for your suspension. You just need to find a better alignment place.

Every car is a little different why the extremely wide oem range to avoid warranty expense.

If tire wear is important then forgo the intolerance range and tune for perfection the midpoint of the range!

im thinking of getting these springs, but dont have enough money to get a set of aftermarket struts. Are you guys still on your stock shocks??

From what I've heard (from people running GF210's), they ride fine with stock shocks and it supposedly cures the infamous bouncing issue.

However, if you've got the dough, it's probably better to run aftermarket shocks as well.

Hey stiv,
What's up? I see that you got the GF210 haha.
I remember telling you that a while back when we met up.
Maybe you should try to get better alignment like others said..I've had
mine for 10K miles and still runs fine without any problem.

p.s. - Did you ever install the Nismo exhaust?:)

Anyone knows the best shock combo for a GF210?

I don't think a shop, no matter how good, is going to be able to adjust the front camber

Working back to posts done on this board from 2003, as drops go beyond .8" the majority of owners that actualy take their car's to a alignment shop are no longer seeing thier car's alignment specs being within oem tolerances. If were seeing GF210 drops within oem specs without aftermarket help, please post a scan of the printouts.

I just bought these springs along with a camber toe kit. I have 19's with a 26 offset in front a 22 offset in back and I was told if I bring the camber and toe into stock spec it's going to rub the finder and it will need to be rolled.
