Default Maximum Rear camber possible stock

What is the MAXIMUM REAR negative camber that can be dialed in with STOCK arm/bolts? I'm looking for -2.5*. I know toe will have to adjusted as well, so
will stock bolts allow this? Trying to avoid having to go with toe bolt mod. Right now I'm at -1.8* each side in the rear.

TIA.

All depends on your specific car, some cars can , other can not. I'll bet you will at least need a set of aftermarket toe bolts to get that much unneeded camber with proper toe.

I'm getting oversteer with my square wheel set up.
The max stock spec is -2.1*, so 2.5* isn't much of a stretch here.

Read your other post, camber is not your issue.

Moved to the correct forum

Also, I would refer to this thread since the variables are already discussed there:

Correct...the swap to a square wheel set up is.
What I'm asking is..will dialing in a bit more negative rear camber help? No..it's not the tires...or the sway bars.
I addressed this on the other thread.

He mentioned -1.8 rear elsewhere , no mention about the front. Nothing listed about front adjustable arms in his sig , so probably just under -1 up front.

lost a bolt to my toe kit long time ago, had to ride around for a week with .62 toe in rear horrible fun in the rain, rear toe kit -http://www.conceptzperformance.com/Cart/description.php?II=4294&Car_Type=370Z&UID=2011101618165969.2 47.241.236

ive got full spc arms bc coils, energy bushings, stillen sways, -2.5 rear camber and -1.9 front camber, cant remember max oem specs i wanted to say -1.7-1.8 in rear not 100%, just get the arms+toe kit, i would steer clear of ICHIBA returned all my products sloppy welds, spray painted parts not powdercoated or anodized(they make decent spacers.). spc products are nice, but the dust cover boots on front arms are bs, ive had them deform and not hold up anymore slip from under the clip that holds the boot up. spc stand behind their product though sent me free boots within a week of me contacting them. they had only been installed for 1 month though.
