Megan front uca's, maxxed out giving me around -5.5 in the front.. I did a lot of looking around and it seems they're one of the only brands that can give that much without any custom work
Thanks dude - Looks like I'll be modding my Cusco's
The M35X upper arms will fit the Z, and provide a good amount of neg camber since they're much shorter than the OEM uppers.
I'd rather just slot my Cusco's and move the balljoint further in. I considered trying to extend the lower control arms, but I think that would end up fcking with the compression rod not fitting into the spindle properly.
Seems like most guys are just shortening the UCA's instead. Dudes in Japan are actually taking them, cutting out sections, and re-welding them back together for insane neg camber.
Like this dude: (He said he's got 13 degrees of neg)
lol Neg camber up front and 0 out back is the right setup, but nobody runs -10 and over on their drift car, if they do than they have no idea what they're doing and are straight up losing needed grip.
I'm not saying it doesn't work... either way Zs and s-chassis cars have very different suspension components and geometry. Double wishbone and macpherson act differently under load and turning.

I totally agree with you on that. But in general, when cars run more negative camber up front, the leading wheel will flatten out in countersteer and provide grip needed. Yes the trailing wheel will lift up even more, but it's just getting dragged anyway.
This is why the PBM SAK is pretty cool, cuz you can adjust all that. I'm just surprised that they're the only company really that's offering anything in terms of extending lower control arms for more neg camber up front, with caster adjustability. I think Fontana used to have something, but they're rare to come by.
Well, "more" affordable is still twice the cost of coils for parts and twice the cost of coils for installation/setup. I mean, I'm a proponent for bags on plenty of cars. But, on our vehicles, where everything of importance sits high, it's so easy to slam a car without worry of really destroying anything that would leave you stranded.
For reference.
And, it's higher now than it was when I had negative offsets and foot wide wheels. They called me Sir Slammington Cosworth of Pokeyton Manor....ok, nobody ever called me that. But, my point is, if you're gonna bag a Z/G, it better be on some extreme nonsense like Vis..Vig...I don't remember how to spell his name, but the kid with the cambergang Z.
And I've got a buddy in FL with a lower car than mine
STATIC DINNA MUG
pOINT is, if you're bagged, BE GREAT!!!!! Don't be good.
