Default Camber Kit Thread

I'm in need of a camber kit so I wanted to get everyone's opinion on what they're running, just like we did with the official exhaust thread.

Give the following info...

1) Manufacturer
2) Model and part number (if any)
3) Where bought
4) Price
5) Shipping (if any)
6) Installation difficulty (10 = impossible)
7) Tire wear
8) Sagging over time (if any)
9) General problems/comments
10) Anything I left out

Thanks everybody... This'll probably help more than just me.

I like and sell the skunk or omnipower camber kits for the eg/dc/ek's. oem fit and no sqeaking like ingalls and some others that are anchor style replacements. the only other one that seems ok but have not used to date is the spc adjustable ball joint.

Sounds like this fool HTechBB works for them or something. I did notice this kit though, and it's something I need to look at doing in the very near future. I've never heard about the Ingall's kits squeaking. I'm interested to see where this thread leads.

fronts, I got the Skunk2's no problems at all with them yet (40k miles w/ 2 road track events).

Rear: bolt and washers, no problem with those either.

Of course you'll need to get it professionaly aligned unless you have the measuring tools to do it yourself.

I have Skunk2 camber kits in the front. I love them, got them on Ebay for $175. They were easy as hell to install, of course I work in a auto shop and do some mechanical stuff. they are easy to adjust, but you have to do it with the front jacked up.

And for the rear, I have SPC EZ Arm toe adjusters. Got them from NOPI for about $110. They were easy to install as well, and adjusting them is really easy, just loosen to nuts on either side, and adjust the main part.

If you want the best

A- Sports pillow ball front camber kit.
from Japan, you just gotta find someone who can get them for you.
They are expensive and usually have to be special ordered

1. Ingalls Front and Back
2. Don't remember, will try to find the boxes later.
3. Local shop back in 2000-2001
4. Don't remember.
5. None
6. Easy as 1 2 3
7. Was in my bro's Si for around 10K, had the stock Michelin tires for around 25K
8. No sagging
9. The squeaking, but I'm not sure if its the camber kit or not. Maybe some lubricant spray will take of it.

They're selling what's being called a 1st gen. Ingalls camber kit on eBay. It's supposedly a genuine Ingalls piece. Apparently the thing that makes the kits squeak is the polyurethane bushings and these have rubber bushings. Only $105. Sounds like a good deal. What do you all think?

Also, there are some OBX kits on there. I've heard that most OBX stuff is crap, but does anyone have any experience with their camber kits?
