How low, most of the time you can get away without getting a front kit. The added camber from lowering it up front doesn't hurt at all.
I actually run camber arms with extra camber than i would normally get from lowering the car.

I have Cusco front and rear camber arms with Cusco rear toe-in bars. Fairly reasonable price and easy install. I track my car regularly with it adjusted at 2+ degrees camber and am pleased with the adjustability of camber and rear toe-in. I had it on the alignment machine after 12 hard tracking events to check the original settings and had it no changes so it's held up well.
Combine it with GTspec front and rear control arm braces, Hotchkis adjustable stabilizers, Tein EDFC coilovers and my car is about as solid as I can get it.
My car is lowered as well with about 2 1/2" of clearance on the underside and less than 2" of clearance on my ground effects spoilers and rocker panels. I run it with 5mm front spacers on the front for added Stop-Tech 6 piston brake clearance. 4 piston Stop Tech rears don't need the room. If you can, avoid spacers and find wheels with less offset. Slight camber looks great and performs well. Remember, the inside contact patch of your tire won't last as long with too much camber. Add the power boost of an additional 150 HP with an APS single track turbo on a stock engine with 93 octane pump gas.
When my 350z was stock it had a nice personality and with good drivability. When you begin to change over to what the 350z can become you'll understand. Good luck in your choice of camber arms.

yes it is necessary on gf210's. After i put my coilovers on and the camber kit the car felt like it was on ice, literally. I couldn't drive any faster than about 25 miles per hour otherwise the car would start sliding sideways, lol. HERE IS MY SETUP.
SPC CAMBER KIT IS ONE OF THE BEST IN MY OPINION LOTS OF ROOM FOR ADJUSTMENT.

No you shouldn't need any for the fronts. I have heard on different cars they have had different outcomes for some reason. With some z's needing them and some don't, its weird. I've had my setup for a long time and havent had any problems with the front. I also know a few people with the same setup and they didnt encounter any problems either. So, i would say that you will be just fine. Make sure you get the rear though it is horrible, hehehhe. Anyhow, thank you for the compliment. Believe it or not i put my springs on by myself and also the camber kit and i have no mechanical experience. Try to put it on yourself you will learn alot of things if you have never dont it before. just be sure if you do so to give yourself plenty of time, haha. Plus you will save a good amount of money.

The front I don't have a kit. The toe can be adjusted back within stock specs but the camber is only about 0.1 degree off. Without the kit in the rear, the camber is waaaay off and the toe is definitly off also.
Good luck with your selection. Get an alignment asap after installing the camber/toe kit though. Your alignment will be totally off.

Lowered my Z...just had alignment done and tech said the normal camber is a minus 1.77...seemed a bit off to be...and one of the mounting bolts needing to be removed for a camber kit is faces so that the sway bar needs unbolted too...is this normal...and what is alignment setting if you've lowered your z>

Not sure why you would start another thread asking the same question in less than a week. However, the answer has not changed. It doesn't get much cheaper than this:
