Why do you want a camber kit?

redlinetuning

I agree, why are you wanting to put a camber kit, assuming on your Type R.

If you're trying to correct the camber to save your tires, then you don't need a camber kit. You need to raise up your car and get a proper toe-in/toe-out alignment.

^Bingo

Don't put any products by those companies on your car. If you had a track only car and really needed a camber kit, hardrace only.

Camber doesn't kill tires as much as many think, it's the toe that kills tires. However, i do agree a camber kit really isn't needed unless the car is tracked, but a tracked car does need it.

im planning on doing track next summer so im starting to ask questions alot of people i know said it would be useful plus im dropped on koni yellow+eibach sportline right now and its eating the inside of my tires

I wouldn't say needed, but desired. Ability to change the camber settings depending on track conditions, yes.

Then you need to get it properly aligned as I mentioned. You'll want to take it to a shop where they know what they're doing.

okk cool thanks for all the info and now what about brands ?! i hear many are just the same with higher or lower prices or even some (like blox) have the shittiest bushing i have no clue yet as what to buy 97CWITR mentionned hardrace im gonna look into that but some people told me BWR ksport or even skunk2 can be good

Unless its a track only car why bother? Just get a good alignment and you will be fine. My itr is pretty low with stock stuff. Zero tire wear. Waste of money IMO

PiZZaBoY7000

hahahaha junk2
why is bwr=turds?

EE2bitsk

blackworks just makes cheap as **** looking parts.
look at their coilovers, look like pure ****.

i happen to believe ksport makes a robust product. i've used them for a number of suspension solutions and i've been quite satisfied.

Dude...listen to what folks are saying. You DON'T need a camber kit.

If you're doing track days, spend your money on a GroundControl coilover kit instead and get rid of those Eibach lowering/appearance springs.

I'll be using a camber kit to bring the camber in to negative more. I track the car, though. I have 0 uneven wear on the street. Just get the toe fixed. Toe is whats eating the inside edge of the tires.

Why are you modding your car for your FIRST time on the track?

B serious

iTrader: (1)

Yeah, that's a good point. Its a good idea to get a base line and go from there. Plus, the ITR isn't exactly a camry. Its pretty track ready. Do some general maintenance for safety, and throw in some performance or track brake pads/good fluid and rip it up.


Then as you progress and you can actually see where the car was lacking for your style of driving, you can mod in the right direction.

Why do you think this is needed?

i went ahead and purchased a blox camber kit for my 01-0504 ill let you know how it is.

Tight-R

If you ACTUALLY track the car, you'll find there is not enough allowable camber from the factory. I've seen this first hand. I suppose if you drive like a bitch or you don't ever take tracking the car even partially serious, you can just drive ti around the track and enjoy yourself. Anyone taking it even remotely serious will quickly realize there is a need for a camber kit.

get RIGHT

I just LOL'd.


You have a gross misunderstanding of this car, of what it needs, of what you need, and what you are even talking about. Thanks for not answering a simple question and for the comedy it just brought myself and others who will read it, I thought I was having a bad day until you posted.

Todd00

Maybe you'll get the benefit of your wallet being lighter. Otherwise, there is no need to adjust camber in an ITR unless you are running absolutely slammed in a street car (but you'll have other problems to worry about anyways) or if you have a very specific need to do so.

redlinetuning

A Type R is track ready as it is. Yes, it looks nice when it's lowered a little bit, but a silly slam will make it (or any car) handle like ****. A modest drop, say 1/2" or 1", is plenty, and you can do that on the stock springs if you just use Koni struts and just adjust the perch cups. Even then the camber doesn't change much.

But it is your car, so by all means.

Tight-R

So your ignorance to what a track prepped car requires in real life, not on some sheet of paper, automatically allows you to bash me? I have seen scrubbed tires due to inadequate camber. Some of you think the car is great the way it comes from the factory, and it is by all means, however to say it has no need for a camber kit is ignorant. I understand your position, you are like all the other ITR owners that think they're above the world because they own one. You've "won" awards or what have you, with your car, wow, awesome. That's cool. I could probably drive my stock prelude around you, and any of you wannabe weekend drivers any day of the week. So continue your bashing, I enjoy the average internet tough guy response. You're actually one of the most ignorant "do it my way" people on here. Your ego is bigger than your brain lol. One day, you will realize, you're a *****.
