    Camber ?

    Hey i rang up for springs today and pedders told me that i would possibly need a anti camber bar for my car if i got it lowered, i just want to know if this is true, has anyone just lowered their accord with springs and not coil overs and had to put in a anti-camber bar, or is it just a stunt to get a extra $450 out of my ass!

    Nope it's true.I've got Bilsteins with Eibach lowered springs,my drop is approx.35mm and i needed a rear camber kit but $450 seems a bit steep.I hope that's fitted.

    I got coilovers, and got the camber and toe arms fitted not too long ago..
    U can get away with it for the front, but you get a lot of negative camber in at the rear.

    I dropped mine 40mm and was getting around -2.5 deg of camber at the rear...

    For that price you could get the spoon camber kit as well...

    Yeah, you def need a rear camber kit, the front you dont have to worry about.
    450? bit steep, im thinking about 350 ish for ingalls off a trader from here.

    Ingalls is definitely the way to go, full adjustability on camber and toe...
    I have them and I'm impressed with them. A majority of Euro owners with camber kits use Ingalls...

    It pulls to the right like FCK! I could take right hand curves without turning the wheel. Driving on the highway was hell because I had to keep pulling the wheel left so that I didn't crash over the middle island and onto oncoming traffic. I could take the M5 tunnel right hand curve without my hand on the wheel too!

    Ingalls camber kit, $220 landed. Get it installed (easy, can DIY), and then get an alignment.
