Last owner got into accident and bent the driver side front lca. I replace it with a integra lca and its way better but still not enough to center the wheel. What else could be bent?[IMGLINK][IMGLINK
Hitting the curb is bad enough damage, take it to a frame shop. Your strut is not the issue, you've already replace the lca and it clearly shows that the issue is not resolved.

I'll try change the sub frame hopefully that will put it back....
Eg/dc/delsol same sub frame right?
At what point did anyone tell you to throw parts at it randomly? Hint: We didn't.
Well if there was a frame shop that i can go to, i would have done that already. I dont really have a choice but to replace all the possible broken parts.
Yes, you do. Measure. Inspect. See what actually is and isn't broken before you replace random ****. If you don't know where the nearest body shop is, call the nearest paint shop - they'll tell you.
I cannot imagine any shop will put his car on a frame machine for less than his car is worth.
If the LCA was bent I bet the subframe is tweaked too. Maybe the upper control arm, strut, spindle, tie rod, rack and maybe even the unibody.
If your unibody is tweaked, it's gonna be more cost effective to replace the car. I've never seen a body shop charge less than thousands of dollars for such a repair.
Sorry but you have to have an eye for frame type work, everything is measured out. Frame shops have a manual of exact spec's of where everything is suppose to line up. If you wanna eye it go right ahead but be warned.
Frame work is something I don't wanna dive in JUST to save on, yes car is old, yes the work might cost more than the car. Should you spend that amount of money on an old car? That can only be answered by the OP
