They look like adjustable rear camber arms

What are you planning on doing with rear camber arms?

In my opinion the car already has enough cornering grip at the rear and more rear camber will decrease traction plus increase awkward tyre wear. Is it going to be tracked a lot?

It would appear that the NSR camber arm on my Z has suffered from some twottage in its life. Had 4 wheel alignment done and they couldn't get the camber in and under closer inspection the arm has slight damage. So at £45 thought I'd replace both with these. They are well chunky and look well made.

That makes sense. I was going ask why on earth you'd want more camber at the rear. On lowered Z4's the camber sits at about -2.5 degrees on the rear. That's plenty for normal road use.

Yeah. I was a little concerned when they told me especially as it's not lowered. But hey s**t happens.

I had mine set at 2.5 on the rear for a couple of sets of tyres. I've put it back to 1.5 now, to reduce the tyre wear as I don't really go on track these days. Can't say I notice much difference driving on the road.

As its been a nice decided to give the car a clean. Took ages. All I need to do is get near side wheels refurbed and new discs and brakes fitted and that's it for this year

That looks beautiful, Rossnr. Just needs a hardtop to complete the aggresive theme.

Interim oil change, first time ever.

No leaks either!

Yes Ben I've been on the lookout for one a while now. May have to wait till spring/summer as very expensive at moment

That's your best bet mate. No point even entertaining the idea of buying one in the rainy months as the price of them goes sky high.

First clean inside since buying the car a couple of weeks ago so though I would do it properly

also painted the small piece of trim in the middle of the centre console

Hells Bells, thats thorough! I'm guessing you remove the number plates when your cleaning and polishing the body work?
