The daizens are bushings with 2 degrees of correction, to get more negative camber they need to be installed backwards.....

That's how I done it and there was one other person from where I got the idea from... He's from canada and had a sick SC...

well i am thinking about geting some work vs-xx in 18.9.5 in the front and 18.11.5 in the rear or some jline sdmrl2 but i get lost when it come to the rim depth and the + or - numbers , i just have no idea what it means. i am new to all this stuff , well wheel fitting i mean , i just want some rims that have a fat lip , something like 3-4 ins in the front and 6 to 7 in the rear. i am still trying to learn and do search because i dont want to spend alot of cash and it not be the right size.

Basically what you want to do is buy some wheels in the sizes you like. Put them on and adjust the fenders accordingly. You are going to need some pretty major fender work for the sizes you are looking at. It will come out looking so dope in the end however.

Hope you don't mind me bringing up your old thread cambersc, but the sizes this guy is talking about is basically your old setup and that should be able to give him some good insight as to what needs to be done.

take a look at this thread solefresh
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sc-...py-2-c-me.html

As far as wheel offsets go try reading this
http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/...jsp?techid=101

As far as camber adjustment goes, you can get a lot of camber adjustment through the stock bolts. Not sure how far you can take it though.

yeah man those thread were super helpful and i know i need to do some work on the fenders , i was planing on wideing just the back and doing a fender roll in the front but i need someone to do the body work for me. i also dont want to do too much Negative camber because i live in nyc and the road here are so ******ing ****ty, but i do plan on doing a airbag system , tire Stretching did cross my mind but it a bit risky , i would need to find out how to do it the right way.

Buy it and I'll stop parting.... This is whats gone... All the lights, Coilovers, CF Hood, hks exhaust and Big Win Lip... I still have the stock hood and stock exhaust... It would need suspension to drive and lights all around.... PM if you are serious and I'll work out a deal with you.


FormosaSC, thanks for the suggestion....
