im looking to get a camber kit for my 92 prelude si. what are some good ones i could look at and what are the best prices?

 

AHHHHHH! don't get a camber kit! atleast not one that replace your upper wishbone stock bushings. I had the ingalls style- VERY DANGEROUS! they can never be tight enough and strip. then the wheels just wobble around. I now have SPC ones in the front. look like a circle with an off axis hole. they slipped to, but i grinded rough groves in them and they seem to work.

I recomend adjustable ball joints. They would have a much smaller moment applied to them being directly above the line of action. its hard to explain, but these would be the least likely to slip. As far as quality goes with them i have no idea.

 

Ingalls.

 

and whatever you get, make sure you go and get some mobil 1 grease (its red) and coat the bushings up. It will sound aweful otherwise.

I have never heard of anyone having these problems with camber kits. Are you sure they were installed and used correctly?

thats what i also want to know...

 

i have front and rear ingalls, that replace upper control arm bushings, been in and set for 2 years and never had a problem. just got take a bfh to the inner fender or your upper control arm hits, but it states that in the directions.

 

are 92-96 and 97-01 camber kits the same? or are they year specific?

 

i also need a camber kit but i need one for the 92 S model

this is what i have



and yes the old ones (ingalls) were installed correctly, but they come in two types, rubber and urethane. I got the cheaper of the two i think it was urethane and they squeaked all the time and the lock nut stripped (mechanics did this at honda) but the nuts on the others would loosen all the time so i put lock washers on them.

I do autocross so i am guessing they couldn't handle that as they did wok for a while. so now i have spc in the front and no camber kit in the rear, but the stock ones loosen by themselves too?! Maybe its my subs. nothing squeaks or makes me swerve around the road like the ingalls kit did. maybe they were offbrand ones. who knows.

so far the spc ones ($270 for the front) work great. they are hard to adjust though. I had to fabricate an adjustment tool out of a 1/4" peice of steel to rotated the ecentric hole. so far no mechanics have figured them out even after telling them how to adjust it during wheel allignments and i have to do it myself with a little calculus and lasers. Thats what i get for living in kentucky.

 

It's the bushings man! Or lack thereof!
