Hey, i purchased a Fulcrum camber kit and installed it on my euro. I was running neg 4.3 camber now running neg 3.2 camber. It's an improvement but not a good enough improvement, The kit is on full ajustment!

What i'm after is a camber kit that will be able to ajust my neg 4 camber to 0! Are there any camber kits out there that can convert my neg 4 camber to atleast neg -1 or something better than neg 3??

Thanks ! :)

How low is your car I have a fulcrum kit and it went from 3 degrees out to 1 which is standard. Are you sure the fitted all 3 bushes (each side) correctly does not sound like it to me.

Without any drop, the euro's rear is -1 degree right? Has anyone check their stock specto see if it's in spec?

hmm strange that it wont correct more neg camber than that...

like peekay34 said check-out the install coz they should be doing more than that.

and standard camber on the euro is -1 so going to 0 probably isn't good from a handling perspective tho tyres may last longer.

When i get my suspension done i'm going to see if i can get a slightly larger neg camber say -1.5 or -2

The kit has been installed correctly per as the instructions.

I think because the cars so low the arms have moved a fair bit..

The car has been lowerd a fair bit. i would say 3 & half inches. On the 19ns it sits at the rim on the back and right on the tire at the front.. It's very low. Lets just say the exhaust hits driveways.

Thanks for all the quick replies aswell!! I don't know what i'm going to doo. After 7000km's i've had to flip the rear tires as the sides have completely been chewed and are just on legal limit! So rear tires will dissapear quicker than the fronts :)

I think i'm just going to have to put up with the problem? I like the sound of the ingall kit as i can change the camber heaps, i don't want to go bush ajustable as i cannot get enough ajustment out of it.

Oh, and has anybody lipped the rear of the euros yet? as there is heaps of plastic in the inner guards i'm a bit worried in getting it done.

Thanks guys :)

holy crap... 3.5 inches ! thats the most agressive drop on a euro i've heard of.
No wonder the camber is out! haha. If it was me i'd be raising the car an inch or so and getting the camber right so you save your tyres whilst lookin for a different camber kit.


What are ya using for the drop anyway?

go get ingall camber kit. I got one in my car at the moment, and now is set to -1.
It can be set to 0 camber as well if you want.

with fulcrum kit, I'm sure you are only limited to camber.
with ingall, you can set the toe as well. Ingall kit basically replace the oem ones, and it's not bushings only like fulcrum kit, it's actually replacing the stock. Ingall comes with steel rod etc (don't know what it's exactly called, but it replaces the stock steel rod etc.).

ingall kit's price is around 400 if I'm not mistaken.

Ohh yeah, there's no way i'm raising her! Looks tuff as dumped! :)

You wont belive but i'm running standard suspension with reset origional springs! Great ride, but it can get bouncy :)

But, it's a huge drop! Should of seen the look on honda's face rocking up for the first 1000 km service slammed on 19ns :P

I saw euro77's Ingall Kit during the install, I would personally recommend that kit due to it's versatality of it...

The fulcrum one doesn't make a sound.

Thanks for all the help guys, it's been appricated!!

Just another question about the ingall kit, Can u make the top arm shorter and the bottom arm longer so i don't have to lip the guards? And it also corrects the camber issue?

euro77
26-07-2005, 10:00 PM
It definitely corrects the camber issue.
I'm not too sure about your first query (shorter top arm & longer bottom arm), but wouldn't it make a negative camber?

tknova
27-07-2005, 06:39 AM
sorry, i meant making the top arm shorter and the bottom arm shorter so it also brings the wheel in (no rubbing) and corrects the camber problem..

Sorry, made a little stuff up :)

how good spoon camber kits are? in term of oh well it corrects the chamber and does it make funny noises?

and, as u guys said rear chamber is suppose to be -1 for euro. what the front should be?

sorry for asking dumb question, do we need the chamber kit for the rear only, or the front as well?

euro77
28-07-2005, 06:17 PM
when lowering, you only need rear camber kit, as the front's oem will still cope with the drop

Hi does anyone know the part number of the INgalls camber kit for the Euro? (rear only).

It seems to cost around $400 locally but can be found on ebay for the TSX much cheaper. Just wondering if it is the same part number?

Thanks - can see that :

Has anyone fit a camber kit designed for the TSX? I ask because the stock TSX has a stock camber of up to -1.5.

Looking at the stock specs for the Euro - the stock is up to -1 (according to Bearepairs computer)

1. wheres does the arms go? short arm goes to the front or the rear?

2. does the nuts have to point to a specific direction? silver pointing towards wheels or the black ones?

I have search every thread on camber kit/ingalls and didnt get much info to my understanding..

1. Short arm - at the front
Long arm - at the back

2. It doesn't matter which colour nut is closer to the wheel, makes no difference.
