Default coilovers

I was lookin to buy some coilovers for my 94 integra ls, but i was wondering if i need to get a camber kit first. or does it depend on how far i drop it, if so how far????

If you drop it more then 2 in. then you need a camber kit.

hope that helps, what kind are you looking to get?

Skunk2's coilover system indeed covers all tegs from 90-01. However, they are no where near 350-400. I did a group buy search and the first one that popped up was selling them for just over $260, brand new.


anyway, back on topic. It is suggested that you get a camber kit if you are lowering more than 1.5", however if you are getting a coilover system, I definently recommend that you get a camber kit. Also, don't forget to get a 4 wheel alignment as soon as you lower it and get the camber system on (hopefully you'll do both at the same time ). Even with a camber kit, your tires can still receive heavy wear do to toe problems with the wheels.


and trust me, I've got first hand experience with this one: click here

yes, well DC Sports lists their stainless steel header for 454.95 on their site, but if anyone actually paid that much they'd be out of their mind

what are you trying to prove? I put down the list price as a reference. Should i say how much they cost at like a swap meet or something instead? Basically i was showing that they are way better than the cheapo ones you get for like 100 bucks new.

you tell me...you countered with a price ~$70 higher than I said you could get them for new. I was just letting him know that you can get them new for cheaper than you led onto. Thats it.
