i first heard it from username: integra type s
is it true that after a certain amount of drop, the geometry of the front strut gets all funky? what's the problem?

 

it doesn't get all crazy but it does change. I only lowered like .7 inch and I still got an alignment.

 

what changes?

 

camber, toe and some other things will change. what are you going to put on?

 

so you needed a camber kit with only a .7 drop in the front?

doesnt the aspec kit drop it more than that, and without a camber?

 

When you drop any car, the alignment of the car becomes misaligned. That's a given. The only problem that I really see is there is that when you drop the dc5 or the ep3, is that the amount of stroke will be greatly reduced from what little stroke these cars came with. It seems that the dc5 has a short stroke because of the macphearson strut design. This would mean that it would bottom out more and give some bump steer when lowered significantly.

 

my plans are omnipower coilovers, lca's, and omnipower camber kits. yeah, the package deal

either that, or i'll go with just ground controls

i was planning on slamming my car down, but i guess it's not possible...

any way around this problem?

 

ive been slammed on tein flex for almost 2 years with no problems whatsoever with street driving. when i roadrace, i raise it up quite a bit though.
