Koni Yellows-w/ Eibach Pro Kit Question
ProKit springs lower between 1.2 and 1.4 inches - Koni yellows (not nuespeed) have an external adjustment range (ride height) from stock to up to 1. 5 inches lower.
Assuming Pro Kit springs and stock height setting on Koni's - what camber kit SPC - Skunk, others.... should I use?
Assuming Pro Kit springs and max lowered setting on Koni's - what camber kit should I use?
Thanks

You don't need a camber kit on the front if you go with koni yellows & eibach pro-kits. I wouldn't recommend using the koni's to raise/lower. If you know that you want to do that off the bat, then get a different spring. If you want to change your ride height then go with coilovers. You have to completely remove the shock assembly to move that little clip to adjust the ride height on the konis...

Konis are 'set and forget' for the reason above but having the option is nice. I have the skunk upper arms because they are so easy to adjust. dialing in 2.5 degrees of negative camber for the track is very easy. Word of advice though, if you get them, ditch the allen head adjustment bolts that they come with. They are notorious for breaking or backing off and if your car is lower than 2" in front those bolts will put some nice little dents in the shock tower. Replace them with 6mm grade 10 stainless hex head bolts and you'll be happy.
