The camber kit just corrects the negative camber that results from lowering a car. You know when you see the bottom of the wheel facing farther out than the top, so it is pointed inwards? That is negative camber. It will wear your tires out on the insides if it isn't corrected.

I do all my shopping on ebay since it is very cheap.

Here are the struts I am running. They are cheap and get the job done better than the OEM shocks. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/KYB-G...spagenameZWDVW

The springs are just a personal preference. I prefer Neuspeed, but you may want to go with Eibach, H&R, etc. Just find the proper drop height you want. Here is a set of H&R for $150 w/ free shipping. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/H-R-S...spagenameZWDVW

And then here is a rear camber kit from Ingalls for $110. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CIVIC...spagenameZWDVW

It is a pricey endevour to do it right, but it will be worth it.
