High-performance, forged upper control arms for 92 - 00 Civics, 94 - 01 Integras and 95 - 99 Eclipses, Galants, Talons and Avengers are exactly what tuners and racers need in adjustable upper control arms.
Constructed of aerospace aluminum alloy these arms are torsionally stiffer than the OE control arm and are anodized for improved appearance and corrosion resistance.
One point adjustment for both camber and caster, with the caster adjustment featuring a "positive lock" mechanism designed for high load acceleration and braking.
With applications for racing, show and street tuners, these arms are the aftermarket's choice when choosing a high end, light weight replacement arm to correct alignment angles and to save weight. Packaged in pairs.

Front Adjustment range: Camber -2.50 degree to +3.50 degree Caster -1.25 degree to +1.25 degree
Installation time: .6 hr/side
Required: 1 kit per axle

looks good. i have over 5 degrees castor on my eg with the white line castor kit KCA301 (http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_detail.php?part_number=KCA301) and the upper control arm swap. i definitely recommend it! my review/install thread here (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=102993&highlight=upper+control+arm+swap)

wow your that same guy that posted on my arm swap thread. just read over it then and saw you at the bottom. yeah eks are alot more tricky. back when i had no mortgage, rates and bills in general i wanted to buy another car just to track and was going to get another eg 1 reason being getting more castor was easily attainable. still got the dream in my head. matt (old and faded) white with my rotas off my current eg, get some sportmax for that +15 offset. strip the interior out, de sound deaden and all. hit up some round bar weld my own braces in etc. just a dream now.

Caster adj kit - lwr c/arm KCA366 2 adds +0.66 deg
Caster/camber adj kit - c/arm KCA371 4 +0.66 caster +/- 0.66 camber

whiteline in no real help using both those would only add 1 and a half degrees which is nothing.

we'll see when i get them :) currently have buddyclub items, don't do castor though
i do like the look of the spc arm, looks much more solid than the other designs out there
and a huge nut sorta helps too

I have SPC rear camber arms for the accord. Theyve been in use for 2 years with no sign of rust, although the threads seemed to have seized. i cant get the lock nuts to come undone...
