adam_r Posted September 3, 2012 Report Share Posted September 3, 2012 Hey guys. One of my friends has a 300zx TT SWB.. he has just fitted some nice coilovers and some camber adjusters to the car and wants it aligned / geo'd properly. What can be adjusted on these cars ? And what information would we have to supply to get the necessary information sent to your associate garage in denmead (near Portsmouth) ... he's after a fast road setup and basically wants as Much grip as the tyres and chassis will offer.

CIH Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Front and rear toe and rear camber from OEM. They usually need aftermarket rear toe & front and rear camber adjustable arms, if they're lowered more than ~30mm, as the OEM adjusters have a small range. Similar front set-up to Skyline, rear similar to 200SX. I'd want to see adjustable rear toe and camber arms, front camber arms and tension-rods (castor) as a minimum, if it's on coilovers.

Tony Posted September 4, 2012 Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Recommend some anti-bump steer roll centrer adjusters if the car goes more than -30mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam_r Posted September 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Hmm ok so reading in to this.. it's going to need a few more bits really. So: Anti bump steer Roll center adjusters Rear toe arms Rear camber arms And front castor (He has front camber adjusters) Whilst the parts above are ideal.. can the car be set up for the meantime until he gets the above bits? Or is a simple alignment the only thing he can do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam_r Posted September 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2012 Btw it's lowered about 35mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CIH Posted September 5, 2012 Report Share Posted September 5, 2012 I personally wouldn't bother with roll centre adjusters or bump-steer gear. If money is tight, the tension-rods can wait also. That would really be the absolute minimum though. It's probably got knackered rear subframe and tension rod bushes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
