Camber kit; anyone installed one yet??
Many of us have discussed camber-kits here; who carries them, what they look like, etc., but I have yet to hear/see pics from a member who's actually purchased and installed a kit on their SC.
I have contacted Exact and Trendy, and they each have a different kind. Daizen is dead now, I believe, so does anyone know of any other camber-kits out there (yes, Talwang, I'm asking you  ) that are attainable?
My camber, caster and toe are all out of whack, and I've adjusted them as far as the Lexus OEM setup will allow, which is nowhere near enough adjustment. I'm sick of my tires wearing out on the inner edges so quickly, and I'd like to know I'm riding with the right angles/degrees of adjustment.
Any tried and true input is appreciated.
*I'm dropped about 1.5" on Tein CS w/19" wheels.

I thought 98LexSc400 has already told you the camber kit info. You haven't tried it yet? haha

Lots of parts are basically the same between SC and 2GS.
Perhaps you should try the SPC camber kits available from CL vendors.
OEM Front upper control arms are the same.
48610-39085 JZS160, UZS161
48610-39085 UZZ40
OEM Rear lower control arms are the same.
48730-30080 JZS160, UZS16*
48730-30080 UZZ40

There are a few more camber kits released in Japan for the SC430 since my last post on that topic.
As you know, the demand is really low in US, so we probably won't see any of them here.
Some Japanese tuners also use the 2GS parts on the SC430 and they claim the parts work nicely.
I am not going to scare you guys with the prices of these below.

Thanks, Talwang..... I want to hear from anyone who's installed any one of these kits and can report some results. Those control arms are works of art! How much do they run in Japan?
