Yeah, what about the Progress Technology front and rear kit? I think Landspeed Racing is selling it for like $189 for both front and rear kits.

How's the adjustability?

Ingalls are pretty good, if you get the poly ones which are more sporty they tend to make some noise. i like the rubber ones. i think groupbuycenter has them for sell right now. Also you can always get the shrunk 2 ones which are cheap and work well. But don't get the cheap ebay ones that are like 15 bux

I am using an Ingalls kit with rubber bushings. The kit works well but mine make a little noise sometimes. I prolly just need to try to lube them or somthing. I think I paid 145 for the front\rear kit.

Specialty Products are money. The dude that adjusted my camber/toe really liked em too.

Skunk2 are good, but not very good for racing. They need to be notched so they don't slip...but for daily driving, they are cool.

i run the "no" camber kit.
it has 0 degrees od adjustment.
but, it doesn't rub. it was real easy to install and -2 degrees was liveable.

the only problem with a kit is this:
if you actually have -4 deg. camber your car is LOW, and putting the car back to 0 deg. will make the tires rub. oh, and you can't get back to 0deg. with no rubbing if you don't raise the car. i just make sure to run proper toe and caster and keep an eye one the tires...as long as you rail alot of corners, you get even tire wear.

put some washers in between your rear upper control arms, instead of wasting your money on a rear camber kit. It fixes your rear camber for couple cents! Did fine for me!
