I'm pretty sure I replied to your answer yesterday but now I can't find it.

Let's try it again then.

That is alot of camber with the stock arms. I thought the maximum negative camber in the rear was -5 if that. You sure you were all stock?

yes im all stock at the moment except fig engineering toe arms, but because of the way our suspension is set up the lower you go the more camber you get. also im completely maxxed out on the bc racing coils as well. another thing it could be is because i have toe arms? good chance the extra camber doesnt allow the stock toe adjustment to be within spec if it goes past -5degrees. but everything else is stock i promise

*edit: woops forgot to mention the toe

Looks great man. When you first slapped on your coils, how did you attain so much camber?

got the junction produce fusa and tsuna for my bday a few days ago
RoyalOrigin x BossCompany 2003 GS300-d6tzvhv.jpg

i also installed the 30mm camber rca, it gave my fronts an additional -4.2 degrees of camber
i managed to pull -8.9 in the front and -6.5 in the rear with all the toe dialed in

the front lip is now destroyed because the rca corrected the suspension and also allowed me to lower it further

i also went to the Lexus of Westminster meet yesterday morning, quite fun... shout out to qtrann even though i didnt get to meet ya

That's alot of camber in the front. Almost too much for my liking.
Rear end looks like it drags lower than front but I think it's just because the wheels are tucked.

You got the Sage front RCA? I assume you got the additional camber from lowering it even more.

The frame rail is actually lower in the front than the rear, it's just the actual fender arch is smaller in the rear. I have studio camber rcas so it offsets the hub while the sage rcas are straight drops
