Kk the bolt must be narrower than the hole to accomplish this- GW

this is the driver side bolt:

did they install it wrong? is the arrow on the bolt head supposed to point the same way as the washer tab to achieve maximum negative camber?

he is a bit hesistant to loosen the bolt and playing around with it as it will mess with the toe settings, wasting the alignment.

so can anyone confirm that the arrow on the bolt head is supposed to point the same way as the washer tab, before he tries to mess with it?

With my whiteline camber bolts, the washer tabs sit the same as the ones picture above, the tab faces inwards. From what I saw, when I installed them the washer can only sit at one position to the bolt i.e. the washer locks the bolt. When you spin it, it will spin the bolt/lobe as well.

My initial camber reading measured at -1.08 (camber tops were maxed out), I forgot to tell the guys at Jax I had the camber bolts. They did a second alignment and got -2.4 out of them.

Hey guys,

I was looking but to some new tweeter covers and interior plastic covers, some rusty screws in engine bay came across this site . . They have everything and yes I mean EVERYTHING, lol . . Worth a look if you looking for genuine stuff

Yep. I have posted it here before.

Ordered a few things from them and they're pretty fast shipping.

Just be careful that some parts from UKDM and JDM can have different part numbers such as headlights,ecu, intake/exhaust manifolds.

Did they ask for you Vin number, when I asked about some parts they did?

No they didn't ask for VIN. Just as long you have the part number.

The most accurate way to determine part number is through using HONDA EPC Japan. I've got a copy of it and it's all in Japanese. So it's takes a bit of guessing to navigate through the software. But I was able to manage to get the bits exclusive to our JDM model.

It basically has the same exploded view of the parts like as below:

That link is awsome I've been trying to find a parts manual for ages, thats even better. Like a work shop manual and I can either order from there or take the part number into honda and get them to order it
