I used to have the prokit springs on my car. The rear was sitting at -2.5 degrees but the front was ok. So, yes, I needed the camber kits for the rear. I decided to drop the car more with a set of neuspeed sport springs and just went ahead and bought front and rear SPC kits. Everything is just peachy now. Others said they didn't need camber kits with the prokit springs. You'll just have to wait and see. Just make sure you get them if you are out of spec. A lowered car with major negative camber at the corners just looks cheap and well, stupid.
Anyhow, I like the SPC design for the rear link better than the ingall design. You can get the rear kit, includes both sides, for 124 shipped off the group buy center. 39 for the front set shipped.
Oh, this belongs in the suspension forum. No harm, no foul, just remember for next time. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Yep. Group buy rear and marketplace front for me was $155 shipped. I sold mine for the same price to another member though. Try the group buy center to get the best price. I would go with the SPC camber kits though. I believe they're of better quality. Although Ingalls isn't bad or anything. I will be getting the SPC when I'm ready to buy a camber kit again.
The SPC kits are like the Eibach (they probably made them). They work great and are indeed tougher than the Ingalls. The ONLY problem I had with them was the ABS sensor on an EX. The mounting method for the sensor was not really that great. Sometimes when you adjusted the turnbuckle the holes did not line up at all and the sensor was not properly routed. The alignment tech did not catch this and I ended up breaking a rear ABS sensor wire. It was not too bad, only 30 dollars for the new sensor and I reset the ABS system myself, but it was a pain getting a new kit. The alignment shop did install the new ones for free and realign the car for my trouble.
If you don't have an EX, then don't worry at all. If you do, then I would recommend the Ingalls.

Hey, do you have the SPC's, or the Eibach's? How do you know they have the same ABS sensor bracket? I know they look similiar, but have you seen both of them in person?
