Default Which front camber kit to go with for '93 Si?

Should I get the 1.5 degree extensions or the 1.75 to 3.25 adjustable ball joint? I'll be running Ground Control coilovers and want to drop it aabout 2.5 inches

I would recommend the Skunk2 ones, they replace your whole upper control arm. If you would like a price e-mail me at Shawn@sound-buys.com

if you can get enough correction out of the 1.25 degree ingall's kit, use that. if you need more, use the skunk2 kit. the Ingall's 3 degree kit screws up the suspension geometry because it changes the pivot point of the upper control arm instead of changing its length, and that screws up the roll center and camber gain of the suspension. and be careful about lowering the car more that two inches on stock length struts- the car wint have much suspension travel. Good luck.

So the Ingall's 3 degree kit isn't that great? I was looking at getting the front set for my car but maybe I had better do more research first. I have Progress springs (2.25"-2.5" drop) and Tokico struts. I only need to fix the front camber because I've already fixed the back with the washer method. Any suggestions on which brand to go with and how much range of adjustability I should look for?

Skunk2...

I have problems with the Ingalls kits... they're hard to set, and even harder to keep from coming loose. It just seems like a bad design. Progress is just as bad. They've only got two settings and the threaded rod has a tendency to work it's way out of the pivot-joint block.

I know it's quite a bit more expensive, but skunk2 is the way to go.
