Default integra got dumped yesterday...


Just installed h&r race + koni yellow neuspeed edition

wheels are tucked about half an inch or so.

Im going to raise it up tommorow to the top perches (half inch or so higher).
Having problems with the rear fender rubbing so i will roll it with a baseball bat, and the front camber kit was making the upper control arm hit the top of the fenderwell so i set it all the way in, but the camber is still off then.
I'm thinking about banging in part of the fender well where it bumps into so i can set the camber kit out a lil farther.

Any suggestions on getting this setup to align correctly with camber and not have rubbing issues or does everyone with h&r race rub all over like this?
One thing tho, lock to lock, the wheel's dont rub and im running 205/50/15's which slightly wider than stock.
Havent been able to turn hard enough though to see if the front will rub much since the back rubbed really easily when taking a few twisty freeway onramps.

looks good though, nice and low. The only way to go is to be "dumped'

Looks clean.

sticks to the road like glue.

only thing is i cant truely push it because the rear is rubbing when the car leans.

the h&r race are like a 2" drop, and then since i have the neuspeed sp3's, i have 5 perches for height so i have the front on the second from the bottom, and the rear on the middle perch.

im going to have to raise it up slightly like one or two perches in order to get some clearance because now if im parked and i turn my wheel, i have about half a centimeter! of space between the top of my tire and the fender's edge.

it looks perfect, but it rubs the rears, and im guessing that once i have the rears fixed from rubbing, the front will do the same to if i push it a lil more.

I think you would have been happier with the H&R sport instead of race

what'd u do for your camber?

i got an ingalls style front camber kit off group buy center.
I think if i push the wheel out a lil more it might make the control arm rest on the fender though.

and for the rears, im going to put in 3 washers on each side to fix the camber.

how much did you h&r race settle and how long did they take to settle patrick?

run a camber kit that comes with the upper control arm and you wont have to worry about the arm hitting. I'm guessing your running the ingalls style kit. I had the same problem on my crx. Looks good.

Looks great, but the lowered height will force you to change the way you drive, especially up and down driveways and upramps.

I run H&R Sport which dropped my car 3". Hard as it may seem to believe, but it's true. I'm not using any sort of camber kit. I just keep the toe-in aligned and rotate the tires often I don't have any problems.

What do you want him to do....? That is a very clean looking teg. No rice and very nice drop. Keep the outside just like it is. Except maybe an ITR lip and maybe some gunmetal rims . Work on the engine though because your ride is nice and clean and looks real good.
