Installed my Tanabe NF210 springs a few weeks ago and gave it a couple weeks to settle. I searched everywhere and didnt find many alignment specs posted after lowering. Attached are my alignment specs.

Details..

07 G35 Journey
done on aftermarket 20" wheels
Tanabe NF210 Springs
no camber kits installed.

I am considering getting the rear kit, but wanted some opinions. Also what about the difference in camber between left front and right front?

 

Sorry, I can't answer your question, but I have one for you....

I'm trying to decide between Eibachs and Tanabes right now and am leaning toward the Tanabes to avoid installing the camber kits and because I'd be happy with a more subtle drop.

Can you post a couple pics of your car with the Tanabes installed? I'm wondering how much different it looks compared to the Eibachs.

Thanks.

 

the rear isnt too bad in terms of needing a camber kit. Your toe is right in spec and perfect I should say. Your camber can be improved but is not needed. Thats where my camber is at and I have no issues. But then Im running that camber cause of my setup. So if you were to get wheels you wouldn't even need to adjust your camber (possibly)

So I say pass on the camber kit for now. You dont need it. Unless you want to spend 200 to bring it back +.8

as for your fronts.. The right side seems to be way off and the bad news is that can not be fixed. Only way to fix the front camber is aftermarket camber kit.

your toe is in spec for the fronts. but one wheel will look more cambered than the other.

 

The uneven L-R camber can be adjusted somewhat. 2 of my 4 recent alignments all had uneven camber, but it also came with a slightly off-kilter steering wheel in the process.

The most recent one is within a point or two of each other, on each side, and the steering wheel is also now centered.

Adjusting the toe can also affect the camber somewhat, if only minutely.

 

This is why I think I messed up the spring install. The tech told me that there was no camber adjustment up front from the factory. I must have somehow mis-aligned the strut assembly during re-installation.

Did you have a difference of more than 1 degree upfront? Did you ask how they fixed it?

Thanks!

 

^^^

messing with toe and caster can improve the camber. But not by very much to a full degree or even a half degree.



I dont think you messed up the install. Sometimes thats how the alignment plays out. Or maybe the tech didn't have your steering wheel straight, prior to doing the alignment.

 

THANK YOU for posting alignment specs. Nobody ever does, and I think it is so helpful. Seems like Driver owners do it a lot, but have not seen much of that since I've been here...
