As for the Ground Control setup, I think Integra rates will be the best setup for your car. It is not too hard or too soft. It is perfect. Mated with the SP3's, you'll get a very nice ride even when dumped. You also have the option to run extended upper mounts which add another 20mm of shock travel. I recommend getting those for the front if you plan on slamming the car. I have both front and rear. (but rear is overkill). I have it b/c I didnt want to use my factory upper mounts and it makes it easier for install.

Pillowball mounts are also upper mounts used on coilover suspensions. They have a pillowball spherical bearing joint instead of rubber or polyurathane. It supposedly adds more feedback to the driver. They are not extended and will not offer extra shock travel. The purpose is for better feedback and rigidity. These will not act as a camber kit. (only the newer models with mcpherson struts double as a camber plate). You'll still need upper control arms or adjustable anchor bolts to adjust your front camber.

Again, thanks for the help.

Hopefully, I could get the suspension sometime next month. I wish I could get it sooner, but I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment. Hoping to get the new coilover/shocks as well as the camber kit to go with it.
