HFP vs Aftermarket
What would you guys recommend?
HFP suspension is much cheaper than any other aftermarket suspension.
how is the ride of HFP?
Do I need to have camber kit for HFP?

Ride is mildly stiffer and no need to for aftermarket camber correction kit, just get an alignment. Overall I'm really happy with it.

Re: HFP suspension kit vs aftermarket suspension kit?
HFP is a really good suspension for the buck.
Little stiffer than stock.... 1in lower all the way around. still factory smooth ride.
NO camber adj. as ^^^ said and honestly, you shouldnt need an alignment but with any drop it IS recommended.
However, if you want adjustability with stiffness, height and preload..... youll wanna get aftermarket.
Im running Skunk2 Pro-C =] its amazing. MY ride is very comfortable and smooth... im at like 6fr/8r. changed it to that before canyon runs, held up very well... rear is dropped all the way and front has more to go.

Camber might not be off, but toe angles are adversely affected with any drop no matter how low it is. So any at any height, get an alignment.

Re: HFP suspension kit vs aftermarket suspension kit?
I have the HFP suspension and it's great. I initially had the stock struts and Tein S springs.
The look was great but the ride and having to watch out for speed bumps, rain gutters etc was getting to be too much. Also, if I was going to keep this set-up I would have had to address the rear camber.
HFP suspension gives a great ride and about a 1.25 inch drop and no camber issues. You
can get it now for $450.00 at Collegehillshonda.com.

K5^ has the HFP so I know he has pictures. If you're interested in pics of the drop with Skunk2 springs, let me know.

Re: HFP suspension kit vs aftermarket suspension kit?
Thanks for the pics. I was keep trying to find Kartman's pic.
from the pic, I can't tell the difference between stock and HFP.
I thought one inch would make whole lot difference.
There are no way to lower more than one inch?
