Default Does the G coupe have camber adj?

Does the g coupe have camber adjustments? Just wondering since there are no problems with it pulling to the right or the tires featering like the z. The z does not have camber adjustments which I believe is why there are so many problems with it. Also are they not making Carribean blue for 2005?

I think that the rear might have pretty decent camber in stock form. I'd love to change the camber on the front to help eliminate some of the understeer.

My buddy's old Mustang GT could easily be adjusted in the front for negative camber. It made a huge difference in handling. Much better.

I have a G35coupe with the Tein S-Techs which have about a 1" drop and this is my alignment sheet with no Aftermarket Camber kit.

I've had the drop for about 8,000 miles and my tires show no weird wear.

I'm not sure about the 20's but you should be okay depending on what size tires you go with.

The install was easy, my dealer did it in under 2 hours

What is the stock front/rear camber specs?

-1.5/front and -2/rear sounds pretty aggresive. Unless you're tracking the thing. I would think it would chew up tires pretty fast with that setting.
-1/front and -1.5/rear sounds more reasonable.

Going by the specs on the alignment sheet your caster is out of range. No adjusting that though.

The "specified range" is the stock setting. There is a fair amount of negative camber from the factory.
