H&R camber bolts. Exactly 0.1 degree of adjustment was all they were able to get. There maybe more adjustablity there but he said he was running into issues with toe. I'm running T2's with raceseng tophats in the rear. I'm lowered maybe an inch to and inch and a half, not really sure how much lower but I've got almost two finger widths between the tire and the top of the rear fender.
Speaking of that, anyone know how far a BRZ sits off the ground when measured from the rear jacking point on stock tires and stock suspension?
I had previously purchased the whiteline upper ecentric bushing kit and was quoted 6 hours for the install, which was more than I wanted to pay since the labor alone would pay for a set of adjustable LCA's, so those are sitting in my office. I thought that toe arms wouldn't be needed for that modest of a lower to help with the toe issues, but after paying $80 for an alignment, $50 for the bolts, and $130 for the install (yes I know I could of done it myself and would of if I wasn't lazy) and they didn't even adjust the front camber like I wanted, I wasn't very happy. I haven't taken it to a different shop yet but I probably will just to be certain it wasn't just a case of someone not wanting to or not having the time to do the alignment right. It's quite possible they were right and there isn't any more camber adjustment to be had. Either way I felt like I threw $270 out the window. That being said, the guys at the shop were super nice.
As for tracking with them, I don't see why it would be any different than using eccentric bolts on the front. I imagine if they are installed properly they shouldn't slip.
