Default ZEAL Pillow Ball Camber Adjustable Upper Mounts Nissan 350Z

Anyone run these, if so, thoughts?

Do they allow for negative camber adjustment for the front? (maybe dumb question, just want 100% sure)

You cannot adjust front camber on a Z via the upper strut mount, it has to be done at the a arm. Zeal does not make a arms for a Z (or any other car that I am aware of), so that pretty much renders the description posted as sorta useless.

I would guess that these are just an upgraded, optional mount for Zeal coilovers, and the person who added it to the site just assumed it was a regular camber plate like you can fit on other cars. A Z doesn't work that way though. I'd have to look up the part # to know for sure, but that is my best guess.

also they are not going to be camber adjustable, so the picture is not the correct one for the part being sold ^

Dang, I figured, too good to be true. I was getting my hopes up since the description made it sound like it was possible. I actually called the site's customer service and they said it in fact can adjust up to -3 degrees, but I guess they were smoking crack.

So there's absolutely no way to get neg camber w/o the use of an a-arm on the Z due to the way the suspension comes from the factory, correct?

Thanks!
