Are rear camber plates universal? The ones Im thinking about getting came off a set of buddy club coilovers, so would they fit on some Tein Basics? I think they only come with the plates and no bolts or anything.

uh you cant adjust our rear camber with plates...you have to use the RUCA(you know...because it was made for adjusting camber..)

are you thinking about the FRONT camber plates?

Nope, I honestly dont know anything about the rear camber adjustment. I thought it was just a matter of adjusting the camber using the camber plate (somehow). So they are actually just pillowball mounts that are NON-adjustable?

So the OEM ruca can be adjusted for camber?

yes, via an eccentric bolt. when you start lowering it far, you will run out of adjustment and thats when you need an ARUCA.

Are they OEM, or aftermarket? And there arent any long term effects (as in suspension compnents failing because of just using a bolt?

I'll be installing some Tein basics, and doing daily driving.

the eccentric bolts come on the car from nissan.i dont remember how much room they have for adjustment.maybe 1 degree at max.using the bolt will work fine if you dont have a lot of adjusting to do.i use adjustable RUCAs. easy as pie, and twice as tasty!
