I already replaced the rear toe arm. The old came out straight.

Alignment sheet

I seem to have bent my rear right knuckle, based on my alignment. I was looking at picking up a rear right knuckle and upper arm from a junkyard 370z. Part numbers seem to match. Any problems with this plan? I think if the 370z bushings are shot I can swap the bushings from my Nismo's bushings...

Gotta agree with the sitting around part. 5+ hour AutoX day for maybe 15 good minutes on track.

18 x 10.15 wheels clear the front calipers? Good to know

I have these. No tune needed. Only the 3" intake requires a tune.

What's the pricing? CZP also has two piece rotors but they are expensive.

Looks fantastic, but the wheels should contrast the body color imo. Maybe gold would be better? Still, awesome job.

My Nismo FUCAs came in the mail. I'll get around to installing them next week.

Well I'm going SPL/Nismo all around. I wanted to keep the oem struts and springs because they handle fine. I wasn't planning to lower my car either. I just wanted more adjustability for track/autox

Got it, I can get coilovers at the same time as I do the rear suspension.

What size are the OEM Z springs? I'm planning on keeping the OEM springs + shocks for a bit before going aftermarket. I would like to go with NISMO over SPL because I think having a Nismo trim with Nismo suspension would be cool

I made that comment in response to the v2 vs v3 discussion above

I wouldn't bother calling AWE about it, Fedex would just destroy the replacement

The oil weight discussion is heated, and will likely never end. Do your oil changes frequently and on-time and the motor will last a long time.

I think I'll do fronts first, then rear. I'll do the work myself so I don't need to worry about labor. Mainly it's psyching myself up to hit the buy button. I'd prefer to go with Nismo arms, but I saw some V2 vs V3 issues in a different thread.

Tempting for me, but I'm looking at suspension mods first. I'm thinking SPL/Nismo suspension (keeping divorced rear in the back) for adjustability on stock springs/struts and stock ride height. Maybe combine it with sway bars? I autocross and track every once in a while.

I have a set of Dunlops on my Nismo. Amazing when warm, I love them. Horrible when they are cold. If you intend to do any sort of winter driving, get a set of all seasons/winter tires.

Wow the nismo tax for rotors is steep! I think I'll stick with OEM for a while, maybe get them turned later on (assuming the cost is right and the rotors are still healthy).

I was thinking of going with Nismo suspension all around (since I own a Nismo). Should I stick with SPL, then?
