Eibach Pro Springs (Camber Kit HELP!)

Getting an Eibach Pro-Kit for my 2009 G37 Sedan RWD Sedan.

I heard you may or may NOT need a camber kit? Want one if it means it is going to make the car stright and NOT wear out my $1,100 tires.

Man, the camber kits cost TWICE as much as the darn springs itself.

Anyway, I DID some research, but is this the Part #'s I need for the Eibach Kit????

Are these the 3 things I need? It's like $650!

Second, Can someone explain what needs to by cut, or enlarged so the Camber kit will fit? I read you have to enlarge a hole with a Dremel Tool to allow one of the rods to get through the frame?
Is there a DIY Link to the procedure for inbstalling these?
Is this something any mechainc (a good one) will know intuitively how to install, OR, am I going to have to tell him, Hey you "need to drill a hole "HERE", in order for it to be done right?

I Really want to lower my car, but it keeps going up $250 springs $600 for camber kit, + install costs. is it worth it??

Nevermind, figured this out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Edited!)


Here is the Lonk to them:

These are the two basic kits you need. The rear kit (K) will have the toe bolts so you don't need to get those separately.

You can find the front cheaper for sure. I got mine brand new for under $300 through Amazon.com a couple years back.

As for wear, it varies. I am dropped on coils with similar drop as Eibach's. Although toe was well within spec, camber was a little off. With proper rotation everything was fine for a couple of years.

However, a few months ago, toe would no longer go back in spec and i wore through my tires in a *very* short time. Before getting replacements i had the kits finally installed. Everything is very well back in spec now -- so far, so good.

I am getting the entire kit for $500. CALLED SPC myself, which is who makes them for Eibach. They just package them.

Need the Following for my 2009 G37 RWD Sedan:

(2) 72260 Rears (need one for each side)

(1) 72130 Fronts (This kit has 2 units in each kit, so only need to order 1)


Just Pulled the Trigger on these!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and a set of Eibach Springs

Got them. Will my mechanic (good, but doesn't work on G37's) going to intuitively know how to install these?

I KNOW you have to enlarge (grind) out part of the sub frame to allow the new bolt to be used. Is that for the Driver's side or passanger's side?? (Fiont and/or Rear)???

Just so I can tell him, "Hey, you need to grind the driver's side rear blah blah blah...........so you can use the new screw"

Thanks

Yes on the springs.

On the rear camber kit, show him pics to be sure. I've read of at least one instance where a shop enlarged the wrong hole.

p.s. both sides, rear only.

If you DIY you only have to elongate the inner side of the slot (the end of the slot closest to the differential) on each sides toe slot. If you have a shop do it and give them the template they'll probably just do both ends of the slot. Took me about 30 minutes total for both slots using a cutoff wafer wheel in my dremel, worked much better and easier than the #115 dremel cutting bit.

Is the rear more difficult than the fronts to install?
