Okay I was thinking when I get a fastback, I would go with the whiteline springs from pdm. But they mentioned most lowered 240's will suffer from neg camber. So I was considering the front ecentric bolts to correct front camber, and the bushings to correct the rear. But I'm puzzled as to how these work.

If I get all of this, I will have a alignment shop install them, and this would be your regular type shop, since we don't have performance shops around my way. Do you think it would be something your typical shop could install?

Do I even need the bolt's and bushings with the white springs? I was mainly considering them for peace of mind. Also why does pdm say get to sets of bushings for the rear, for 1.5 adjustment range. How does increasing the amount of busshings affect the camber?

Also what are T/C rods for on a 240? And should i get the rod and bushing set pdm offers- they said some older lowered 240's w/o them are prone to bad braking, and trouble w/ swictching lanes or something?

Sorry for the long post, thanks to anyone who can help me outChris

I suggest coilovers like the Gpsports GR6

tension rods. Go with adj like JIC or equivalent.

Depends on the use you need it for.
