The Red vert after eibach drop on stock sport 19s

So, I got the drop done today but I'm waaay out of spec on the rear camber.
15mm h&r spacers have not arrived yet but I'd like to get the rear alignment resolved before adding them + have the springs settle.

A few pics.



rear


front

















top up shots.






























got camber ?


Gotta get this fixed

nice. didn't realize the stocks tucked that much on the springs. the spacers may help a bit. or you can try getting the stillen rear camber arm to make it more straight. try the spacers 1st.

umm spacers wont correct camber lol

thats not even that bad, just get a spc camber rear camber kit and go for an alignment.


those are coupe eibachs right?

Yes Stoof, it's the coupe springs. I'm wondering if the AT is heavier that the MT? I might have to get that camber kit. The wife hates that I'm doing anything to the car, so I'll see how it goes.

My detailed alignment specs are here https://www.myg37.com/forums/g37-con...s-instead.html, I'd rather not have to get a camber kit tho

Nice, so since it IS 100% verified that coupe springs fit(told ya lol) someone needs to man up and get H&Rs


Looks like your toe is in spec, so even with -3deg camber it wouldnt wear out your tires that bad. And your fronts are close enough to spec. If the rear camber is bothering you just get the rear camber arms and get it back in spec, theyre less than 200.

LOL, I'll need to measure the true drop with the eibach coupe springs. H&R roadster springs is stated at 1.4 inchs in the rear (same as H&R coupe springs drop).

The alignment tech at Butler tire said I'd need to rotate the tires often with this setup around every 3000 miles or earlier. It's definitely bumpy in terms of road feedback at highway speeds going over same spotty patches of highway but otherwise awesome to be feeling the road more.

So just the rear camber arms huh. cool.

looks so much better.

Next thing I would do are spacers and powdercoat wheels to a darker grey color.

Thanks Luke! I'll try the camber arms first. One question may be would they be compatible with the rear vert suspension.

It was hard enough to get under the car without the drop LOL.
How about this pic from the install? One of the places that retails it said it should work also.

25 mm spacers all around is what you need.
-2.5 degrees camber in the back and you can still have your rear toe in spec.
front is not a problem
