i was talking to a mechanic friend of mine and he was telling me that alot of time, if you lower vehicles, you have big problem with camber and you need to buy some new joint things, not actual joints, but i cant remember what the word was he sued, but yeah, i was thinking of getting some teins and some KYB's, were i to straight up install those, and get an alignment, would i have problems, or would i have to buy some other devices as well? thanks!

I heard you didn't need camber kit for either my 5th gen and my friend's 2000 miata, that being said, both car was lowered not even 2" and you could see with your eyes the rear wheels pointing inside. Maybe it was ok for the tires, but I didn't like it anyway. (the miata has stock camber adjustmen btw)
Get camber bolts, they are cheap and eaaaaaaaaasy to install, and you can even adjust them yourself. QUOTE(Digndoug @ May 2, 2006 - 6:09 PM) [snapback]429178[/snapback] Bringing this back up. I took my car to MR Tire and they said i need my cmaber adjusted, which means i need a cameber kit. My question, I found on lightning-motorsports a spc camber bolts. $20 for a front and rear. If i do that will that work, or should I get the engels camber kit @ nopi? If i do tht which do i get the 1 or 2? My plan is to get these, and install them and then goi get my car aligned. They wanted $270 for the kit and alignment which the alignment is $70 get 2 bolts, for the rear, install them yourself. 200$ for a kit????? Man you're getting raped, these are only bolts!!! -------------------- ![]() -Rémy 02 SiR, 08 250R |
