The car will be able to be aligned to factory specs after the A-spec suspension install.

Nothing else needed.

Not sure about that last one. With the new suspensions, any time you dissconnect the suspension, specifically the front, you should get it aligned. It wasnt so with the older honda suspension unless you lowered it.

I agree, but the way Honda engineered the A-Spec suspension is that if you are running OEM suspension and the car is in good alignment, the A-Spec will go right on and usually not be too far out.

They still recommend to get the alignment checked after install, however.

you really dont need it if your coming from stock... trust i have been riding my car for a year and a half after install and had no issues whats so ever... but i guess if you really want to spend the money to get an alignment, just do it.
