Default suspention convertion ?s

i purchased my 98 hatch with suspention already on it. when i looked under the car to determine what kind of suspention it was i notices grease pencil markings that said "95 int" which to my knowledge would be a 1995 DC teg. the car handles like a dream on rsr springs, suspention techniqies sway bars, and unknow strut tower braces. with what looks to be skunk2 front camber arms

MY Questions are: should i be having any problems with this suspention?
should this suspention be on this car/ any extra parts i need to check
for or should it have bolted directly on?

Main Question: why arm my front camber arms bottoming out on to the unibody? / the camber screws are punching holes in the unibody.



i added some picture cuz everyone was talking about lower control arms im not sure if that was the info i was looking for. thanx again for any help.

Well, if its running integra suspension, it must have been converted with integra LCA's and such. Shouldn't have a problem though.

i dont think integra lca fit on 96-00 civs.. suspension is suspension.. is the front camber kit bolted at the top as if you would see it in a teggy or 95 hatchy, or the side??

Yea the 96-00 LCA's are not the same as a 94-01 teg or a 92-95 civic. The 6th gen civics LCA's are about 1" longer that the tegs and a 5th gen civic.

as for the camber kit on a 6th gen Civic they will bolt through the side. And as for the Tegs and the 5th gen Civic they will bolt through the top.

yea i know.. i was asking him where his is bolted at cause my cousin got his 96 civic and the stupid previous owners had some camber kits drilled to the top as oppose to the sides as it is suppose to be.. o and the lca on 96 civics are thinner, so if you got integra shocks on yours they probably added washers to it
