is there anyone else running battleversion rear cambers? if so what front did you go with? it seems that most members have spl, but IMO they are cheap looking and not very strong compaired to cusco.

My SPL rear camber arms look far from cheap and appear to be very strong compared to stock.

I would rather the rear camber arm gives and bends absorbing the force in an impact rather than having a super strong rear camber arm that transfers all that force to the subframe where replacement is much more expensive

For the street you should run approx -1 degree of camber.
$850 for front A-arms?!

SPL Pro front Camber/Caster arms, rear camber arms plus their rear mid links with Swift springs. These items are high quality, well engineered pieces.

Cheap looking???

I much rather have a threaded camber adjuster than a slider. I have SPL and I beat the crap out of them and change my camber setting quite often. Never had any problems, and they adjust with ease.

+++++1 ...I couldn't agree with you more!
I'm running the "exact" same set-up and I am very pleased and confident of these Performance Parts!!

I assume that the Springs and Shocks would take care of most of these
Impact Forces??

So then why the need for super strong camber arms? Most people I've seen that damaged their camber arms drifted their rear wheels into a curb, which has always caused the camber arm to bend. If instead it didn't give, the situation above would have occured, the springs can't absorb a shock in that direction.

Yeah.... well they're forged aluminum with solid bushings. It never made much sense to me to replace the OEm aluminum arms with steel. Nissan took the time to give us aluminum so I decided to stick with it.
