Front Camber Arms/Kit. Does it exist for your car? If yes, what brand/company makes it?

Anyone ever try to custom fab something for front camber?

Not sure this has ever been done. But I've been wrong before. Didn't find anything in the Z section?

I'm not sure how the Z front camber kits work. The rear camber kit fits the altima fine. I was told the front kit gets attached to the coils or something like that. I'll have to do more research about it but so far nobody makes it for the altima as I was told by Stillen

There is NO comparison to the Z front suspension. They need aftermarket upper arms to do camber as there is no OE camber adjustment.

* apologies for bumping an old thread but I hardly ever check out this section and since it was near the top I assumed it was recent.

Yeah, no worries. I thought I found a solution for this but then it turned out pretty bad. I'm working on custom-fabbing something for the A/C and hopefully it'll work. The Sedan section is pretty dead :inout:

What did you try? and I know I've seen your car but I don't recall if you're on springs or coilovers?

I tried a G35 front camber bolt and my mechanic warned me that it might be too small for the altima. Of course I didn't listen and I ended up losing control of the car on the way to the gym the next morning. Was on stock wheels so I managed to stop it in time. And coilovers.

Glad to hear you came out of that ok. So you're looking for more camber adjustment than the plates and factory adjustment give you. Do they not make camber bolts specifically for the coupe?

I know this doesn't help you for the front however. Can you use the g35 camber arms on the coupe?

Yes, I have the G35 rear camber arms from SPC and they're perfect. The Stillen kit you just posted, I have that too but from SPC performance. But my mechanic told me it's not for the altima... I'm going to take it to a real alignment shop and see what they say. I even have pics of it installed on my car lol. hold a sec
