    I got a free RX7 so I've been toying around with selling my G37. I will miss Z1, that's for sure. I may end up getting into Z1offroad though.

    Dude any tips for lining these up for a more stock camber? I’ve got them for my 370z but getting them installed is making me nervous. I can’t tell if I’m way off or close enough. I basically just put it on top of the old arm and eye balled them being close. Can an alignment shop tweak these for me? I feel like probably not because they’d have to drop the coil overs

    Comparing to stock arms is a good start. And yes an alignment shop can adjust them. They will not need to drop the coils. That’s only necessary to get the bolts out of the control arms. The adjustment is made at the “ball joint.”

    @@SpeedCultureStudios Believe me, it's a complete pain in the ass, but worth it in the end. It took me one weekend. that includes taking the headliner out of the car, cleaning it, having it dry then cover it with the black suede. Of course, you have to get the other matching acessories, or it will just look odd.

    Adjustable control arms are the best way, particularly if you lower the car significantly, which will naturally pull the wheels in. You can counter that with adjustable control arms

    @@Gofast8954 I describe the process in the video. You can measure them in comparison to your current setup which will give you a good starting point. You can adjust from there. Ultimately though you want to get an alignment so they are adjusted precisely.

    Some things are relatively simple and don’t need to be shown in full detail. You can see where the studs go up into the strut tower bucket and you can see daylight through the hole. And if you are looking under the hood, you can very clearly see where the strut is mounted. Looks essentially the same on a vast majority of every car. Making videos is a tough thing-if you show too much people complain it’s too long. If you don’t show a couple of small items, people complain that something was missed. This is a pretty simple job. I don’t think you’ll have any trouble
