There are camber kits specifically made for the rear of our cars. Figs makes some great products. I personally have the Figs rear mega arms and toe links and in front I have the IS 250/350 Ball joint kit. I have BC coilovers and I'm tucking all 4 corners and my alignment is within factory spec. My 2 cents, hope it helps.

If you are not dropping your car that low, you don't need to worry about camber! Honestly, it's only a major issue with those who have slammed their GS's to the concrete!

You can get the control arms and toe links from Figs, http://www.figsengineering.com/suspension.htm
CL vendor.

I got the front ball joint kit from CircuitMS, www.circuitmotorsports.net
CL vendor as well.


I'm tucking tire on 20's. I'm going to do a photo shoot soon. Here is one pic.

I posted this information in the previous post. It cost me about 900.00 for all the camber correction hardware. But, it was well worth it when you are rolling on Pirelli PZero Nero's. Not the cheapest tires

I have all 4 Megan rear Megan arms made for the IS250/350 on my AWD GS350 and they work just fine.

I need a camber kit for the front, but have no idea if the SPC ball joint for the IS300 will fit for the AWD GS350. The ball joint has to be pressed into the upper control arm. Can anybody confirm?

Tungo,

Somebody with an ISx50 did it here. The front suspension is the same for 3GS.

That was on a RWD GS. The front suspension is different, which is why I'm not sure if it will work for AWD. The RWD front struts are conventional struts whereas the AWD is a fork type design. I will buy this SPC part immediately if its confirmed it will fit.
