Swapping Civic Si/CTR LCAs and forks: Will they change camber?
I am thinking about upgrading my Civic EX front LCAs and forks to those of a 99-00 Civic Si or CTR (same thing). Would swapping LCAs and forks change camber, or would camber not be affected? Would anything (camber, caster, toe) be affected?

Nothing should be affected, but don't forget that you can't use your EX swaybar on the SI LCA's.
I would still get an alignment though.

Then don't do it if YOU dont think you need it.
going to SI lcas wont change your camber 1 degree either direction, but due to manufacturing tolerances, your toe could be off enough to cause premature tire wear.

And I've learned that Toe causes tire wear, and Camber just shows where the tire will wear.
