Camber Kit with Eibach Prokit Springs

Can i get everyones opinion who have eibach prokit springs lowered about 40mm all round.
Do they have a camber kit installed?
Does it make hugh difference at that hight?
your recommendations would be appreciated.

Anything more than 25mm, it's best to have the rear upper arm (camber) replaced with an adjustable one. The front is ok, you do not need to change it.

Euros or Hondas in general are known the increase in camber once lowered. :D

There are many kits available for the Euro, depends on your budget, but all do the same really. Do a search and you will find heaps of threads.

Just install the springs first and see how you go...

Ingalls camber kit is a good option, it includes both upper and lower arms. The lower arm is for Toe adjustments. :D

I have Eibach pro with Bilstein shocks.Yes u need camber kit.It's a good height no scraping over speed humps/driveways etc.but you do have to be a bit carefull with the front lip.

Id say it would depend on the condition of your stock shocks. Ive got eibach springs on stock shocks and have had no problems with it at all.

And yes you would need to install a camber kit, unless you can afford new rear tyres every time.

Yeah that is a little pricey. Look at the SPC alternative, search eBay for "SPC TSX Camber", look for the upper arm it costs around $150. Thats all you need for camber adjustment.

I've got the Eibach rear camber kit but i think its a rebadged SPC as it looks EXACTLY the same.:thumbsup:

isn't the SPC only camber adjustment (1 arm)?

Thats correct, upper arm only. No Toe is included nor really required unless you are really serious about your allignment for track. Also with the addional lower arm, you lose your HID Sensor if you drive a Lux.

hehe, the Mugen's don't lower it that much, roughly 25mm all round. I looked stocked compared to everyone else :p

Its not that bad you have toe arms tho, if you ever did want to play around with it you can. I have them too, learnt after getting them installed and alligned that it would have been the same with or without them. :(

Thats why i reckon SPC is the way to go... save some $$$ for something else.

should have parked next to u @ the meet, would have looked like twinz and you would have looked lower as mine looks like a 4wd. twin modulo.

toe gets affected by your camber and vice versa they are relatively affected by each other.

anyhow too bad i missed out on everyone's car cause of security.

Ive pretty much got the same set up as you, except ive got koni shocks with my eibach pros and ive got the SPC rear camber arms.

It'd be interesting to compare them.

Yeah its really good.
When driving normally it rides like stock, but when u throw it into a corner it just grips and turns in.
And after installing the SPC camber kit and getting it all aligned, turn in was even sharper and i could get back onto the throttle a lot earlier (made a HUGE difference to the way the car feels through a corner).

Next on the list... selby's RSB...

I've got a Selby 18mm RSB.Get it,i'ts the best value for money suspension mod.

Yeh, i don't have the selby's but farout 22mm does keep your car flat on the road.

But imo after your suspension is done the swaybar feels slightly less noticeable.

Thinking about changing to bilstein/eibach later on in the future for more confort, away from my tein monoflex.

i don't get knocking from driving on roads or cornering, i get them from driving on speed humps and turning up ramps in shopping centers.
but good to hear you got it installed, did you replace your stock endlinks?

Not sure I left it upto the guy who installed my suspension, do they come with the RSB or do I have to buy them seperately ? Can't say cause he only charged me $50 for the RSB. Where do the end links go ? NOOBTIME :eek:

I'm assuming they go on the end's lol.....:)

No they don't come with the RSB.
Endlinks need to be purchased separately.

If you drive the car spirited alot of the time it's best you occasionally check your endlinks every so often incase of snappage.
As the stock endlinks are like 6-8mm thin.
