I won't really be tracking the car, and I wouldn't possibly need more than 5 degrees anywhere. You're saying these won't be suitable?

I'm not just aiming for fairly low, I've already got some wheels with ridiculous offsets (so ridiculous I think I'll have to get a shop to modify them), and I want the adjustment so I can make the car fit - as in hellaflush levels of fit - the wheels, and make it look exactly how I want it to. Yeah I know I'm making things difficult for myself but I love the look, so why not?

We have them on my car and have done some testing and test fits. Took them over to FSR and test fitted them on the mkiv supra to make sure they will work on both applications.

When i originally built up my sc300 I did use those ebay arms and they sucked. The fronts are too long so you dont get more neg camber. I had to remove the adjusters and weld the thing fully closed just to get it an 1/8" shorter then stock.
The rear ones must be for a vip car or something cause they where also the wrong length and are short. I'm a fab guy so it was easier to shorten the rear camber arms then try to fix the upper.
Everytime i took the car out to the track the adjusters and the bolts holding them to the uprights would come loose so if you do buy these things, please double check them after you drive around a bit cause they do come loose.
There will be some better arms showing up on the market soon.
