New member.. New G37.. quick sups. question

Hey everyone nice site here. Have a few questions about the G37, coming from a civic si (and 8thcivic.com forums) i have a picture of here.



My brother just got a new/old 2009 G37 coupe. We are going to be dropping it on coil overs probably going hellaflush (I'm sure there are plenty of haters here too )

Anyways, what camber/toe kits are needed? I see theres a lot out there, not sure what ill need for max adjustability/ control tire wear.

Thanks!

Welcome!

Take a look in the modding 411 section. I believe there's a bunch of brands in there.

SPC/Eibach is the most reliable. There's a belief out there that SPC also make Ichiba but I don't think so. Ichiba cambers tend to flex, bend buckle and break so stay away from those.

Welcome to the Forums! Many people go flush or hellaflush so you are amongst friends!

Im not so worried about the manufacture I'm just wondering if i need.. 1. front camber/caster kit 2. rear camber 3. rear toe... Is the front toe adjustable from the factory?

I see all these aftermarket alignment pieces I'm like dang that a lot of stuff to have to buy just to drop the car. Like 1000$ for all three parts i mentioned above!

Just trying to find what parts are actually necessary.

If you're going hellfalush, you'll need camber kits. There is no adjustability in the rear without it. Fronts have no camber adjustability either. You gotta pay to play. You'll be spending at least $1500 on a decent set of coilovers with camber kits.

I am pretty low in the rear and know several guys as low or lower than me local. I have rear camber arms but the alignment shop guy said he could get the toe back within specs without installing the toe bolt. I have talked to at least 3 other guys on coils that are low and don't have the toe bolt installed.
