Alignment Question....

What do you think of my alignment. Do I need to go with camber kit for the front. I have the rear SPC and camber bolts.

I'm just going to wing it and say yes you need a camber kit for the fronts too, especially if you are running coilovers. A pic would really help this discussion.

I recall reading somewhere (here, 370z, or the g35 site... can't remember where), that some brand of camber arms were faulty/prone to failure/cracking. Was it SPC or some other brand???

There were a couple SPC arms that failed, but they've since strengthened the design, they make a good product, mine have worked flawlessly (knock on wood).

cross camber looks good. Not sure how you like the handling of your car, but if you wanted it more positive you can save your tires. Depends what you want from your setup. On my Acura RSX before I cambered it to 2.5 negative both sides. I love the way it handled, but tires did wore a little quicker, but I did rotate religiously every oil change and it does help if you work at a shop that does tires and alignments.
