camber kit ain't going to help if your suspenion part are bent, which is very very very likely if you manage to mate your car to a curb.

don't worry about camber kit now, get the car on a rack and see if you can get it within factory spec first.

 

im just wondering, how do you adjust camber i know how to adjust toe but i never had to do camber and i just got done talking with someone i work with at honda and he said that you cant adjust factory camber,you gotta buy a kits

 

If you need to adjust camber in any Honda you need to replace parts. Despite what some shade tree grease monkeys tell you you can't safely bend heat or grind any Honda suspension part. If there is a need for a camber kit now that means you have damaged parts that need to be replaced 1st.

 

If your tire appears to be tilted out at the top, you/ve most likely bent the lower control arm. No amount of camber kits will properly bring it back into alignment. You will have to replace the bent components, and you still may need to have the frame rail straightened (if it twisted).
Honda takes an official position that the only thing which should need to be adjusted would be the toe adjustment. Real world dictates differently. If the front chassis section should get tweeked. That's where camber kits were originally intended. They have since been manufactured to encompass a larger adjustment value to compensate for lowered suspensions. Camber kits come in different forms; Adustable ball joints and offset bushings.

i just got back from honda and i had a bunch of people look at my car and the lower control seems to be pretty staight. but the knuckel seems to be a little off. sorry for the dumb question about camber kits, suspension isnt where i shine

 

If there is one thing that you should take thru life with you is this.
"The only stupid question is the one not asked"

You may get razed for it, but that's how we learn (That and the mistakes we make)
