Getting stock alignment after lowering car
Just installed coilovers and lowered the car (pictures for reference) and need to take it in for an alignment. For the car to be legal in NZ, my alignment needs to be close to stock specs - +/- 0.5 deg camber etc.
Does anyone know if the achievable with the factory adjustment or do i need aftermarket arms to realign this?

There is a fair bit of adjustment in the factory arms. I would run as aggressive as you can legally if do much enthusiastic cornering at all. Less likely to grab a front guard lip too, worth a roll/pull if you haven't already.

I have mine on Tein Flex Z coilovers, the local tire shop I have do my alignments has no problem aligning my car to factory specs.
Fortunately Mazda put a lot of adjustment into the factory suspension. This isn't like many Nissans where any lowering and you have to get camber correction kits and all that crap.
You have to go STUPID low before you have a problem. About a 25" ride height from ground to fender lip is totally fine.
