Best Camber Kit
Best Camber Kit
I just purchased a Tein SS kit and was wondering what was the best camber kit to buy. I am doing some research now, but was also wanting your opinions.
Thanks,

Ding ding ding, we have a winner! LOL Yep. Hotchkis rules. That's the one I'm going to get. Well, when the price goes down. Straight from their site it's too damned expensive. Go to www.hotchkistuning.com to check it out (listed under the Acura RSX of course; fits ours perfectly though).

I don't see why not. The aftermarket coilovers betwean the RSX and the Civic are interchangeable, so we have the same mounting points. I know for sure that they'll fit onto the chassis. We have the same three bolts and the same bolt spacing. I know 'cause I have the Spoon Sports strut bar for the RSX. It uses the same mounting spots as the camber plate does.
Anyway, the only thing I'm not 100% sure on is if it'll mount up to the shock and spring assembly properly. I think it will (from the looks of it). I've disassembled my shocks and springs before, and I imagine it to fit. Although there might be some small difference that I can't see. I don't think there is though.
What I want to know is if I get these camber plates will my Spoon Sports strut bar still fit? I doubt it. It might fit in if I get some longer studs and mount my strut bar on top of the camber plate. It might fit up near the hood since my Fiber Images CF good has more room than a stock hood with the under skeleton (the 2nd layer with holes). Who knows though... I want a coilover kit with the camber plate that comes up from underneath. That way I can be sure to keep my strut bar.
