i was thinking since these springs/shocks are stock on the type r..maybe if i use the itr upper arm it would be longer..maybe..anyone know? i don't want to buy a camber kit if stock itr part will work.. thanks in advance
You shouldn't need a camber kit for ITR springs. I'm running them and while I haven't measured my camber, I'm sure it's not bad. *Usually* anything less than 1.5" drop on Integras doesn't require a camber kit.
Also, not sure on this, but I believe other than the different rear LCA's and LTA's the suspension components are the same between ITR's and non-ITR's.

The ITR upper arm is slightly longer than the non ITR one.
I will take away some of the negative camber, but it shouldn't be that bad with a .75" drop.

According to Carland Acura, all Integras 94-01 use the same upper control arms and steering knuckles. ITR's run more negative camber from the factory than non-R's, which is due to the lower ride height.

what bar was extended all the way out? Sounds to me like the toe is off and you just need to get that put into spec. If it can't be put into spec, or if other alignment readings are way off from each other, you may have bent or otherwise damaged suspension pieces.

You should be good to go now. Remember to rotate your tires every 3K-5K miles. I'm on a 2.5" drop w/o camber kit and I have very very minimal uneven tire wear, and only after 25-30K miles or more.
