Yeah man, had a long road. Nearly got divorced, got medically retired from the Navy, I've been busy just trying to get my stuff in order, lol. My rear window spoiler flew off going too fast....so that's getting repainted by a friend. Got my eyes on down pipes and exhaust lol.

So my BF Goodrich pro sport comp 2s wore out and I had to replace them. Decided on the Bridgestone Potenza RE760 sports. Install is tomorrow. Yay for new tires. Lol

Sedan camber kits front and rear install!

After a long hiatus I'm back! Installed SPC front and rear camber kits. Here are the pics!
Driver front

Passenger Front


Rear camber inner bolts were a pain.

I wish that was my lift, lol. That's my uncle's racecar lift. My family has a drag race team called Nelson Racing, based out of Roxboro, NC. I'm lucky enough to get to use that from time to time. I've been modding lightly over the last year. First the camber kits and while cleaning my throttle bodies I repainted my R2C intake covers. Just had a lady bump my front bumper at less than 5 mph. She paid out of pocket to keep the insurance out of it. I've got a friend who'll fix it cheap so I'm trying to decide on an exhaust finally.
Looked at a few. Might be going with this one:

Thoughts??

I have another question, are the coupe and sedan sport brake calipers the same? I'm trying to figure out if I can hit up a salvage yard for the parts I need to complete my Sport brake setup.

yup coupe 08 and up and sedan 09 and up sport calipers are exactly the same. Other than needing the banjo bolts for the rear calipers and having to trim the dust shields, its a straight bolt on.

Thanks man. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with my front bumper but if I can get it fixed cheap or find a sport bumper cheap I'll be able to snag the missing parts I need.

Early morning Update: Got a gentleman with a Stillen Exhaust he has taking up yard space for cheap. Friday is pickup. I want to get a consensus before I buy my brake parts. I have front sport calipers, in good shape that haven't been on a car in five years. I was thinking of going with the DIY rebuild on the 370z/350z forums, but reading the thread has made me nervous taking apart the calipers. I found a pick-a-part place with rears super reasonable, so I'm strongly considering buying those and rebuilding a set, buying some lines, pads and rotors. On the other hand ebay has the calipers for a decent price w/ pads and already painted.

EDIT: Ended up just buying the ebay parts, which turned out to cost only $40 more than if I had just bought the rear calipers.

The sport front bumper came in today from Rock Auto. I'm impressed with the speed of delivery and quality of the part. Lower grille and fog inserts are due tomorrow. I'm going to get down and dirty to remove my stock front bumper and test fit the new bumper as well as remove the main grille to be painted along with the new one. The Akebono brake calipers, pads and rotors will be here Friday. Might hold off on install until a warm day or use my small ceramic fan heater.

The sport bumper test fit was successful and in doing so I cleaned up the bumper area of dirt and missing bolts lol.

I also picked up my Stillen Exhaust yesterday and I plan on cleaning it up and polishing it prior to install.
