i have heard mixed about everything? are there any other choices besides skunk 2, ingalls, or specialty products? here are what i have read in the archives

ingalls: too weak, squeaky

skunk 2: prone to collapsing, weak ball joints

specialty products: squeaky

Oh and while i'm at it i was wondering how many degrees of adjustability i would need. i have a 2000 si and i can't tell how many inches i'm dropped because i have coilovers but i don't want the tucked look. just enough so there is only one finger or tire /fender gap. so how ever much of a drop that is, is what i have. any help. and please don't tell me to search because i did search and found bad stuff about all of them and was just wondering if i had any other choices other than these two

 

i should have never cheaped out on my camber kit... it does the job... but squeaks like hell.
dropzone

should have gotten the skunk2 unit.. so i can adjust caster too

 

Well i have searched for ever and found a lot of people complaining about Skunk2 blts loosening and they are prone to being squeeky.
As far as he cheapo companies making knockoffs...i would recomend staying with the ingalls units...you can't go wrong and they are of very good quality...
i have them installed on my cars and i have a bunch of friends that have the Ingalls and are very happy with them..installation usually takes about an hour..can't go wrong with that.
I have ad no complaints with these...they are great.

 

My vote is SPC. Ive had them for over 2 years and I dont know what this squeaky issue is youre talking about.

 

Skunk2. Prone to collapse/shifting but as long as you check it now and then and used some loctite you will be fine.

 

how much $$$ do you have $850...I should have A-sport front & rear (pictured is for an ITR) for my 2000 hatch by the end of april.

they allow for adj. camber & caster. I plan on autoXing & eventually tracking my hatch & these come highly recommended by A&J racing... I have read too many posts of people having problems (ie hitting shock towers,slipping, braking) with ignalls, skunk2, spc

before you flame me for being a JDM ***** I am not getting this kit just so I can correct negative camber on the street, but to give me negative camber for the track (& maybe autoX) without problems

 

i'm running skunk2 up front and specialty in the rear on my ek hatch. haven't had any problems so far

 

i would get ingalls but everyone says you have to bend the upper control arm so it will clear the fender

why would you want to bend that...i have heard to shave a little off of the control arm to get more clearance...

same as the skunk kit..

 

I haven't heard no problems about Skunk 2.

 

how do the ball joints hold up on the omnis?

 

I ran the ingalls and I havent had any problems since I have put them on.

 

 

I've had skunk2 for about 3 years now with ZERO problems.

They USED to have weak balljoints, but they have been updated and I installed my updated ones a few months ago even though my originals were just fine.

S.P.C is great as are the Ingalls.

If installed correctly any one of the kits mentioned should be fine. Part of that installation should be using a grease gun to pack the joints on the Ingalls and S.P.C if I recall correctly, which should remedy any squeaking.

Also here's how i'd set your car up since I do alignments daily on these cars:

Front:

Toe - .04 both sides (dead center toe spec)
Camber - -.8 (you're allowed a full -1 if you want to)

Rear:

Toe - .08 (dead center toe spec for rear)
Camber - Anything between -2.0 and -1.0 (you're allowed a full -2.0 in the rear on 1996-up)

 

deff go with Omniman's stuff

he worked for skunk2 back in the day...and is not bring out products made from teh same producer, but is selling it for cheaper!

 

I've only had experience with the skunk2, but like the others said, it's prone to breaking if you don't check on them

 

hadn't heard any complaints on any of thoose mentioned brands

 

those are nice as hell
