Most the inexpensive ones are gonna be the anchor style ones.... There are a few companys that make the ajustable upper control arm but i think they are pretty pricey. For the rear all you use is washers

I'd double check on those blox kits. even though the site says

"BLOX Front Camber Kit 88-95 Civic/CRX / 90-01 Integra
BLOX Racing front camber kit is designed to help accurately dial in your camber setting with quick adjusting sliding ball joints.
$149.00USD "

but the 88-91 Arm is definately different than the 92-95 and 94-01 integra. Make sure they have two different parts for 4th gen and 5th gen civics.

nope, the only way to adjuster caster is with a traction bar. Caster is basically having your suspension lean back, like a seat back would.

Is the adjustable ball joint the only option? I have it on my teg, to tell you the truth I didn't like at first, but it has held great for 3 year and it also doubles as doing maintenance.

I remember reading on a thread once that most people said you dont need a camber kit. You can fix the rears by shimming them with washers and then take it to a good alignment shop and have them zero the toe in the front. No tire wear and no camber kit

that is completely true. you dont need camber kits, front or rear. the rear is more an issue for EK's since the rear suspension is changed.

its needed to be said so much that i get tired of saying it over and over again. but its true.

focus on getting an alignment.
