Just keep the SPC bolts in mind. With my ride height at 350mm F and R the rear camber is now at -1.25deg with more adjustment left. I would assume a lot cheaper than a set of arms and no rose joints.

part number for the Super Pro stuff

PS: Unless your local has them I don't think there are any in the country atm! I used all the stock and the next order! :P I have been waiting for the next shipment for about 4 weeks now.

Pretty sure this is what I was looking at, it was one of the control arm bushings I needed to replace: http://www.superpro.com.au/find-superpro-parts-for-my-vehicle/part?id=SPF3297K

White line do some similar that are cheaper but theyre not eccentric.

Whiteline have these eccentric ones (http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_detail4.php?part_number=KCA331&sans_vehicle=1) for heaps of Nissan models. Wrong ones??

There is offset bolts from factory but the SPC bolts I did the GB on give another 1-1.5 deg adjustment and cheaper than a/market arms. A/market arms usually also add rose joint ends to them adding a bit of NVH. The only rear M35 a/market camber arms I have found are a Jap unit the cut and shut the factory arm to give adjustment with a rose joint end, these from memory are around $600-700 delivered!!! I haven't found another a/market camber arm as yet as the M35 camber arm is different to the V35. All other rear arms seem to interchange with the V35, just not the camber arm.

I thought that the cam bolts were in the lower arm (the one with the spring cradle) not the caster rod?

They are. The castor rod is at the front of the car.

The arm in the rear that seats the spring is the toe arm and the lower arm that the shocker mounts to is the camber arm. These both have offset bolts for adjustment but it's limited.

The other arms are the upper control arm and traction rod.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
