Re: 2000 Si camber kit (mitmaks)
For cheap, a lot of people do the washer method. They just use washers on the top bolt of the rear suspension to get it close. Ingalls sells camber kits as well as skunk2. There are many options available.

false. The toe in/ toe out and air press. is the biggest prob. when you lower a car, it toes out.
go to the slammed thread and look at what they sa. there are guys slammed with no correction and getting everything out of their tires.

i bought an ingals camber kit for my SI. before i installed, i lost one side of it when i moved so i never installed. i did the cheap washer trick and after i installed my tein SS's my camber went to **** again in the back.
my question is..is there any permanent/better way to fix camber other than the Ingalls kit w/ the bolt and whatever else it came with? will aftermarket LCA's and such help? whats the reason for buying aftermarket LCA's other than replacing broken stock pieces.
ps don't mean to threadjack but this might help the OP also.

Re: (bsixteen)
yes, lca's help, they are shorter in length than the stock lca's, thus bringing the bottom of hub/tire assembly closer to the frame straighting the wheel.
have you tried adj. uca's in the front and rear?

So, how was I false? When you lower a car, the toe is effected. The negative camber effects the toe, but having positive/negative toe does not definitely effect camber.

yes, they are shorter, side by side about a half inch. If they were just for sway bars they wouldnt make them for 96-00 and possibly newer since in 96 the lca's alreadys had hole for sway bars

Re: (nighttrain33)
Like i side when you lower a car the biggest prob is toein/ toe out.
With proper alignment on the toe, tires, yes will wear. but no wear near as fast. I went a year lowered at like 3.8 inchs, about 10,000 miles and my tires are fine. If you dont believe me ill go take a pic.

It's not wearing at all on the inside of the tires? If not, then you're all good I guess. When I first put my Tiens on, I was getting a lot of wear on the inside of the tires until I got it aligned. Oh well.

Only certain brands are shorter than stock. Others are stock length, it all depends on the brand that you go with.

Yeah, and when they aligned it they fixed the toe. Camber only exagerrates wear on the inside edge caused by toe. With 0 camber, your tires will still be 'scrubbing' the road surface, only evenly, so you're wearing out the whole tread, not just the inside edge.
I'm very low with my race suspesion on, well over -3* camber (so much you can see it, and the outside edge of the rear tire doesn't touch the ground sometimes) with zero toe, and absolutely no uneven wear. I'm getting better wear on my race tires than some get on their street sets.
