Default a-arms for positive camber adjustment

I am looking to lower my 06' z and have been researching a arms and can not find a clear answer. I am looking for a arms to get me back into spec. I'm looking to either drop on eibach sportlines or function form coilover either will result in a pretty major drop.

From my research spl arms are good but are mostly for track use and for adding more negative camber. Spc seems to have the most positive camber adjustment but have a lot of bad review and problems with abs lights.

My question, is there a brand out there that will have a good bit of positive camber adjustment. I don't track my car I just want to get into or real close to alignment spec.

If you're just looking to lower the car, and get it back into spec, the SPC's would be fine. They aren't that bad from what I understand. If you're trying to stay in a price range, there are also Ichiba's or whatever they are called. I wouldn't think you would need that much positive camber, when only dropping 1.5" ish.

what is the + adjustment for the ichiba. I would go with spc but I'm nervous about the abs light coming on. I just don't want to go in for alignment and them not be able to get it back into spec.

I'm not sure what the specs are off hand. Unless you're trying to slam the car, I'm positive a decent shop would be able to get it back to spec with SPC's or Ichibas.

What are you trying to do anyways? Are you trying to slam it? On what wheels?

I'm just looking for a low drop not complete slamage, probably just going to go with the function form coilovers because they'll cost about the same as if I'd buy sportlines and tokico d spec dampers. I still have 06' stock wheels. In the future though I'm looking at picking up a set of +22 varrstoen wheels.

Yes, read the thread on post #7.........

your drop is not aggressive enought that any of the front camber arms out there will get you back into the -1.33 spec (bottom of the range) easily anyways..
