ok, here's the deal. just dropped in the b16 in my '88 hatch std. my problem: i've got positive camber in the front. it's not much, but if anything at all, i should have negative camber. i'm running H&R sport springs which lower it 1.9 inches in the front and 1.8 in the rear. kyb agx struts in front, and kyb gr2 in the rear. last nite i just put on my rota slipstreams 15x6.5 w/ falken azenis 205/50R15. (they look very very nice btw). but why the heck do i have slight positive camber in the front? i just put the new suspension on like a few days ago. it's not been driven yet (not quite done w/ the swap). will the suspension settle some and get rid of this AWFUL positive camber? i've never seen this happen before. anything i can check? ANY help is appreciated! thanks in advance!

 

what hubs/etc. did you swap into the front?

 

'91 civic or crx Si. one of the two. would that make a difference if they're from a crx?

 

Use smaller grade 8 bolts then tightne em good. It will give you - camber think aboiut it

 

sure u didnt get integra knukles?

 

..yeah, that's what I was wondering... but, actually, wouldnt that give him extreme negative camber?

 

ok, just found something out... i just called the junk yard that i got the 91 civic "Si" knuckles from. when i asked the hillbilly if they were from a civic or crx Si he tells me that they're from a civic 4-door Lx. umm.... ok?! so, any more ideas of why i have positive camber, presented the new information?

 

LX is teh same as DX and SI so it shouldnt matter either way u didnt do a big brake conversion did u???? by any chance at all??? ummm it really sounds weird u sure its positive like ur wheels are like / \ or like \ / ???

 

yes, my wheels are like \ /.... i would be happy if they were like / \.

 

anybody else have any ideas of what i can do?

 

i'd suggest trying another knuckle on one side to see if they are bent. the yards say bent knuckles on 4g's are common. my friend went through 3 for his b16 std before he found a good one.
