Thanks man, yea I got a price quote for $490 dollars with swift spec r and spc rear camber kit shipped from an online vendor. It seems like a good price to me. Thanks again.

I got mine installed about a week ago, the ride comfort is a lot better (base model).
Did give me a good drop, but now waiting on my camber kit to put on.

Ill purchase the koni shocks later by the end of the year.

Great upgrade for sure!!

No problem, seems a little high though. The springs are usually around $315 and the rear camber kit $90ish. Did that include toe bolts? There about $30...
I'm pretty sure I got mine shipped free too.

I bought my springs from Kamispeed and SPC camber kit through amazon. $90 includes the toe bolts.

After spring install, without an alignment, how many miles do you drive?

I don't want to put much wear on the tires but still want to be able to let the springs settle.

P.S. Its been roughly 2 days and 15 miles since I installed my springs

Thanks fellas

Huck 06-06-2014 08:23 AM

Let the springs settle for about a week and you should be good to go

Mileage doesn't really matter as much as the amount of time the springs are compressed under the weight of the car.

Thanks, I didn't want to drive it too much with the alignment out of whack so i wanted to see what mile number would start to put wear on the tires?

Huck 06-06-2014 08:37 AM

Nah, after a few months if your camber is out of whack you'll notice wear, but a week you should be fine.

You can always measure the cars drop every day and when it's the same measurement for 2-3 days then get an alignment.

I had to tell them I was lowered and i feel like I'm gonna get charged extra because of it...how much more is considered "fair"...i hate being nickleled and dimed

If you plan on keeping this car for a while I recommend firestone's lifetime alignment package. it's about $200 and it does t matter what you do to the suspension, or how many times you change it up, or how many times you bring it in. As long as they can fit the alignment arms on the wheel and get the car on the car, they will align it for you. I've seen a guy with a stanced civic go in there at least 2 times a month now for 3-4 months. He has like -7.0° camber (no exaggeration) and they keep doing it for him.

Zdayz 2014!!

Huck 06-06-2014 09:55 AM

Otherwise, a one time alignment should cost between $50-$90, depending who you go to. Don't ever pay more than $100.
