I like the look lowered. Hope you find a good solution to the camber issues.

There are three options

1. raise the car because it's too low
2. get whiteline bushings (you might also need the adjustable toe link)
3. get cusco lower arms (you might still also need the whiteline toe link)

I was hoping for some referance from other people that it's.

Anyway, the FR-S don't have rear camber adjusment ( check the shop manual, it really don't have ) and if someone have already buy the Cusco lower arm I would really know how many degres it can correct.
google camber bolt. i have never heard of a car in history that used a double wishbone and didnt have camber bolts. with the multilink, you should have more adjustability than you do than the fronts

Hi project.sth,

Yes the rear has no factory camber, it is the same as a GRB WRX/STi rear suspension so much so that the Cusco part number is exactlly the same part to fit the GRB/FRS/BRZ to correct your camber issue.

It will easily correct the -2.5 degrees of camber and give you a nicer piece and looks much better especially from the rear.

I am installing the KW V3's this coming Friday as well as the rear camber correction from Cusco or Whiteline.

We are in Mississauga and are the master warehouse for most major suspension companies. We keep the Cusco and Whiteline products in stock in our Mississauga location so that you don't have to deal with the border and all its brokerage and taxes. We ship all over Canada next day UPS so if your ready for it give me a call or pm.

Thank you

Rear Camber kit...http://ft86speedfactory.com/index.ph...roducts_id=215

Will pull +/- .75 camber. Bring you back to a -1.25 give or take a bit which is much more manageable. You could always raise it up a bit as well. Looks a bit too low. Holler with any questions.

Really close as stock if you don't put the damper too high. For now I run 15 front and back and it's just a little bit stiffer but that it's.

I'm in the same boat. I got my car aligned though so its only the rear wheels that have crazy camber (-2.3*). $500+ is a bit much IMO for a camber adjustment, and the Whiteline bolts don't adjust enough for my liking.

Thanks a lot for the result of rear camber. -2.3 don't bother me that much as I will track it. How you lowered as me?

Does anyone know the stock camber for front and rear? I'll likely be lowering mine 1.5" and won't even need a camber adjustment. I like the way it sits with negative camber and I drift so it will need it as well.

Stock camber up front was near 0 degrees, which isn't the best for MacPherson style suspension. We'd recommend adding camber up front for better performance.
Eccentric bolts will be able to assist with dialing out some camber, but will not dial out -2.5 degrees.
Depending on the aggressiveness of the eccentric bolt, you might be able adjust .5 to 2 degrees of camber, however we'd recommend installing adjustable camber arms with high quality bearings.
