Rear camber adjustment options?
 
So what are the options available for adjusting the rear camber on the BRZ/FR-S? I know Whiteline makes an adjustable bushing kit, anything else? Either current or in the pipeline? I thought I saw Eibach may be coming out with something?

Cusco and few others offer Rear control arms with adjustment...that and the rear is very ride height dependent on Where it would be for camber..

SPC makes a rear control arm that is super easy to adjust. I have owned several differant brands on my 09/11 STi and they were the easiest.

Yes, they are listed for a 08+ STi/WRX but they share the same rear control arms.

I have both and i did the alignment myself and it took a while. i have rear camber set at -2.6 but i think i will be running -3 in rears. if you are planning to get it make sure to have a specialist that know what they are doing to install it.

Good lord. I only paid $150 total for both of my rear camber arms including the bigger bolts on my 370Z. What a ripoff we've got currently.

I agree. Not much out there and the prices are outrageous. I mean to get a setup that allows good adjustment we are currently looking at a grand if you want front camber plates, rear control arms, and the whiteline rear bushing camber bolts while your in there.

I considered rear camber arms, but right now I'm at -2.5 degrees in the rear, which appears to be w/in spec.

I also considered roll center adjustment, but I just got my alignment...

I believe the maximum in spec is -1.75 in the rear. At 2.5 you will definitely see the inside parts of your tires wear substantially faster than the middle. You won't even notice any wear on the outside. That is unless you are tracking the car of course.

Don't want to spend $500 for adjustable arms so I'm making my own...

I'll start a thread next week when I make some progress...

After lowering my car on KWs I wound up at -1.9 on one side and and -2.0 on the other.

There are alot of features on GTSPEC that are not available through SPC/Eibach or even the cheapo made it urself camber arms.

To list a few

1. Up to -6 degree camber
2. Camber joints are CNC cut out instead of normal stamp out.
3. It's made out of chromely steel and spray down with anti rush protection coating to prevent rush during the winter where salt and weather will rush regular steels.
4. GTSPEC also made the toe arms to work with the camber arms. Toe arms will be needed if more camber needed.
