Default SRR lower control arm...

ok lets say i just got an alignment. and then after the alignment i go and buy some SRR LCA's would i have to get an alignment again? from what i see the LCA's dont have anything to do with camber or toe (i might be wrong).

TIA

Everyone says after you tinker with suspension pieces to get your alignment re-done.

No, you don't.

But if you have a warranty, you might as well if you notice anything funny.

i dont think they are the itr ones, they are designed alot differently than the standard integra/civic ones... i guess i will just get the new prothane bushing set for them... also does anyone make aluminum front lca's, the stock ones weigh like 20lbs.

A 'bling bling' rear suspension piece to be quite honest is primary reason most people upgrade, myself included. However, aftermarket LCAs help shed a small portion of weight from your suspension as well as provide mounting points for the rear swaybar, something that lacks on most hatchback since it did not come stock. However in the case of kid1320 and his Si I would assume it would do nothing more than look nice.

i'll admit that what made me want to buy my SRR LCA's is mainly the fact that they look really nice...and in my eyes, the purpose that it serves to improve the suspension is a bonus.

das me! everyone who gets them, get them for bling factor. the weight difference is probably like you eating a whole meal. so dont eat when you have stock LCA and eat all you want when you got SRRs

I got the shortened SPC LCA's to pull in my rear wheels to solve my wheel rubbing problem. I wasnt down with the ghetto "roll-it-yourself-with-a-wooden-bat" fix. I think SRR are the standard length though. I can only see the swaybar mounts, lightweight, and sturdier design as being the technical highlights to them.

dont just pass off the weight savings on these pieces as nothing, unsprung weight is much more valuable to shed than sprung weight so these will actually make your car handle better. i have itr lcas though and i cant imagine these would be any lighter... plus, they aparntly dont even make replacements for the itr for whatever reason, probibly b/c honda hit the nail on the head with them and theres not much to improve on.... and lastly, i can do without a purple suspension piece.. homos
