Default Camber Kit on H&R Race with Koni Yellows...

Suspension is not really my forte' so please help me out.

After reading a lot of posts and everyone's contrasting views, I can really tell what kind, if any, camber kit I need on my dc integra.

They say skunk2 and omnipower have problems with hitting the shock tower. Some people say that a kit isnt even needed, just a good alignment and tire rotations a lot.

Someone who knows better than me please tell me what to do. I have the shocks and springs just sitting in my room waiting for transplant.

thanks a lot


p.s. h&r race lower about 2.25-2.5 inches.

since u got the H&R race then i would recommend a camber kit. that drop is over 2 inches. i had a set of neuspeed race and the drop was about 2 1/4" all the way around. the ride was really horrible. toooooo stiff and rough. felt every bump on the rode. and i had these on some Bilstein HD shocks too! i decided to get rid of the springs and put in a set of H&R sports. the ride quality was 10x's better. i love it!

for the fronts, i would recommend the INGALLS camber kit. u can get it on ebay for about $125. dont settle for the kockoff ingalls kit. i got the knockoff ingalls kit made by dropzone and they sucked so much ***. the bushing was soooo small and it fell apart after 1000 miles.
Get the ingalls kit in the front and do the washer and bolt trick in the rear. heres the link for it: http://home.earthlink.net/~civ....html

no problem. just get them alligned once u install it. u r install n it urself right? it's a pretty easy and straight foward install.
the only problem u might have when installing the shocks is with the bolts in the rear struts where they mount to the lower control arm. those bolts are sometimes frozen in the bushing of the LCA. it's a pain in the *** to take out. this was the case on my 97 integra. if u have a newer car then u might not have this problem
