GKTECH V2 Z33 350Z/V35 FRONT UPPER CAMBER ARMS (FUCA'S)
The GKTECH V2 Z33 350z/ V35 Front Upper Camber Arms (FUCA's) are used to adjust the front camber as when you lower your car negative camber is introduced. This then reduces the contact patch of your tyres and thus available traction. Our front upper camber arms will get this issue sorted!
When designing these arms we were able to incorporate more clearance in the balljoint area from the inner wheel well by 10mm, so that the arm doesn’t make contact with the body when extended.
These arms are a direct replacement of the standard arms and allow for -25mm through to +15mm of adjustment compared to the OEM arm. On a stock lower arm we have seen camber as low as -5.5 degrees of camber and as high as +1.0 degrees! With our adjustable lower control arms we have seen as low as -11 degrees of camber for those who want complete adjustment.
As a completely unique design we have now made it possible to adjust caster, by using stackable shims it allows you to further increase adjustment by + or – 1 degree of caster.
These arms have been CAD designed, FEA tested, they are laser cut from high strength steel, are TIG welded and to finish the arms off they're E-coated (electrophoresis coating) for rust prevention.
The arms feature high misalignment PTFE lined rose/ heim joints, that we use in all our suspension arms, that are a common size bearing that can be found at your local bearing supplier, or if you need we do have them on the shelf.
We also include dust boots to keep the bearings protected.

FAQ'S
Will these fit my car?
We can only confirm fitment for the vehicles listed above under "confirmed fitment".
How do they adjust caster?
We've made caster adjustable through stackable shims. By using larger shims in front of the bearing you are moving the arm backward (towards the rear) increasing caster, by using larger shims behind the bearing you are moving the arm forward and reducing caster.
How much camber will they give me?
On a stock lower arm we have seen camber as low as -5.5 degrees of camber and as high as +1.0 degrees! With our adjustable lower control arms we have seen as low as -11 degrees of camber for those who want complete adjustment.
How long is the warranty on these arms?
All GKTECH suspension arms come with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
The Teflon lined rose joints come with a 1 year replacement warranty.
We stock spare bearings so even after the 12 months is up we can still help with replacements, worse case scenario they're a 5/8" rose joint for the outer bearings and a COM10T inner bearing which are readily available through your local autoshop.
Are these suspension arms legal for use on street cars?
We recommend that you contact your local RTA for clarification/confirmation.
Where can I find these common size bearings?
They can be found at any local bearing supplier as mentioned, however, we do keep them on the shelf so that the arms can be serviced.
The rose/ heim joints used, use part number PCM12T
The outer bearing is a COM10T
