Default My first Gen.1 CR-V [never ending]

So I picked up this CR-V 5spd RT4WD a week ago, I must say it's fun but obviously it can be better. The only thing needed was front and rear oxygen sensors [which were included new in box] and propshaft [only thing needed to buy extra] aside from that stage zero complete.

Suspension mods:
-----------------
Full DC2 Coil overs - I'm set on what model but which work best on the CR-V?
Front upper camber control arms [from which model honda?]
Rear camber arms [from which model honda?]
Rear LCA [there such better replacements for CR-V?]


This will get updated as I find new things to do to it.

use the search on this forum
and go through the lifted / official h-t threads - you'll find a lot of suspension info there.

cant use a whole control arm from something else. I use spc extreme adjustable prelude ball joints in the stock arms. the stock crv arm is a lot shorter than a civic/teg arm and even maxed out on a camber arm, isnt as long as a stock crv arm.

rear cambers for an EK work.

No such thing as a aftermarket crv LCA. ITR and ek(with itr style mount) are closest, but like 8" too short. lol
