I think KMac can get 3 degrees.

The 2nd Gen GS rear RCA kit fits the SC430. I believe miSTaSC posted up and showed it does fit and provided up to 3 degrees of postive camber.

See post #1 in this thread...

Yes I have read that already... My next question is the toe adjustment... Is there an aftermarket kit for it? Or does the stock arm is manageable?

I'm looking for the toe kit now if that's available

I'm not aware of any toe kits available for our SC.

Mark since your sc is lowered with a different suspension

You don't have any problem with the alignment? Ur toe and camber is at 0? ... I'm sorry if I'm asking too much questions

But imagine if I ran at -3 camber rear... Can the stock arm adjust the toe to 0? I don't want uneven tears on my tires..or do I have to get them fully custom made?

I had my mechanic adjust the toe up front but the rear did not need any adjustments. I'm thinking the factory adjustments can be tweaked but not as much as a full toe kit. Again, I'm not sure there is an aftermarket toe kit. I did not use my rear camber kit because I built my whole rear section around my wheels so the natural camber has been taken into account when we built the fenders.

the 2nd gen GS and the SC430 share suspension components rear arms, toe links etc.. figs engineering has arms, toe links and track links to dial in your rear.

http://shopfigs.com/v1/index.php?rou...product_id=180

The VIP LCA arm that figs offers acts like an RCA as well to get that little bit more of a drop.
Also depending on how much camber you are planning to run you might not need the trac links, Anything over -3 degrees or so of camber might need the trac links to get wheel centering dialed right.

He also offers front UCA as well:

PM me if you need any more info.
