Rear Camber - Advice/Knowledge Needed (Current Alignment Provided)

[Lewis_UK]

Good evening Ladies and Gents,

 

So after reading this thread: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/112747-advice-on-parts-needed/page__hl__camber

 

I decided to get alignment done, I knew it was out, but blimey...

 

Before:

Front:

Camber: Left Front -1.06' | -0.53' Right Front

Toe: Left Front -0.27' | 0.17' Right Front

Total Toe: -0.10'

Steer Ahead: -0.22

 

Rear:

Camber: Left Rear -2.59' | -4.33' Right Rear

T oe: Left Rear -0.05' | 0.23' Right Rear

Total Toe: 0.18'

Thrust Angle: -0.14'

 

After:

Front:

Camber: Left Front -1.14' | -0.51' Right Front

Toe: Left Front 0.02' | 0.02' Right Front

Total Toe: 0.04'

Steer Ahead: 0.00'

 

Rear:

Camber: Left Rear -2.57' | -4.33' Right Rear

Toe: Left Rear 0.01' | 0.09' Right Rear

Total Toe: 0.10'

Thrust Angle: -0.04'

 

They kind of sorted the front but basically the rear camber bolts are siezed and didn't want to attempt incase of snapping the bolts. So only got charged for front adjustment.

 

Now I have some questions, from what I've been reading you can't really adjust the rear camber, but generally if you lower the suspension.

But to be nearly -4.33' on the right rear? Ontop of that, all of my suspension looks completely stock, I do want to stay stock with abit of camber.

 

What are my options from here, I mean, if I buy new bolts can I get them adjusted to maybe -2.00', -2.50' with OEM rear camber arms?

The thread I linked above just generally states get adjustable ones, but surely if from what I can tell if the camber arms, springs and suspension are OEM, if I just get new bolts then I can get it adjusted properly?

 

Many thanks in advance.

If you have standard suspension including springs you have problems elsewhere if your camber is that far out.

So all they adjusted was a bit of front toe? Blimey.

 

Agree with Kyle, that seems excessive on stock. You need to replace the rear bolts anyway if they're seized, so get that done and go from there.
