So just to recap you are wrong and Iam right.

i dont want to speak for him but i think the point rayden is making is that he has both the camber and "toe"/radius arms that you (and me for a matter of fact) thought was a completely adjustable suspendion, and it is not enough adjustability (is that a word?) required for his drop needs
the arms he has PLUS toe cames and/or the new 350evo solution appears to have his answer

You can say your right I'm wrong all you want, it changes nothing.

That is the reason EVO350 offer's a $1500 suspension bushing system to kill that off. If it was a good idea to adjust toe at that location Nissan would have put it their, but they didn't did they.

To answer my own question almost six years later lol.
SPL PRO rear toe arms / it gets rid of mid link to make the toe fully adjustable. They have two versions ,one for a true coilover and the other for the guys that need the spring in the mid link.
