Hey guys, If you remember, I'm getting my body work done, soo after that I'mma buy the exhaust I realllly want :p then im gonna be lowering my teg on dropzone shocks/coilovers

I've been talking to blake about it, since he has this setup, and he told me he has a camber kit, and top hats, but i don't need a camber kit if i don't want it.

I'mma be dropping the car probably about 1.75 around, i want little to no wheel gap, will i need a front camber kit?
If so, what kind shoulld i get, im on a budget here, im only young, working part time...
If i do need one., should i just get the dropzone camber kit too, and what top hats, and where can i buy them?
He recommended i get them, so i will.
What kinds are there and what will do the job?

thanks

no experience with camber kits but i dropped mine 1.75 up front and 1.5 in back with springs/shocks and in no way, shape or form do i require more camber at either end. i could actually go another .5 inch lower w/o problems

unless you plan on stuffing 18s you will have no clearance issues.

For a mild drop alot of times you wont need one. An alignment is a must though after dropping.

Im dropped 2inchs in the front no camber kit. but i just did this yesterday lol.
But I was dropped 1.3 inchs and rode for a half a year with no uneven tire wear. I just got an alignment.

What is your signature from lol

I'm dropped about 2" and I don't want/need a camber kit. I do need a wheel alignment. If you do drop your car make sure you get an alignment done.

Are you talking about the top hat that goes ontop of the spring? The hat that the springs seats into, that bolts to your strut shaft?

Yeah man. It should all fit. The diameter of the shock shaft shouldn't be bigger.

i wouldnt go 'dropzone' suspension. they're garbage. i threw some on for the first time on my sister's accord and they were done 8 months later.

i highly suggest going with a known high quality brand like the koni yellow and ground control setup. if you're looking not to use the OEM tophats, ground control makes extended ones.

If I wasn't 18, working part time, and a colledge student come September, yes sure I would spend 1000+ on suspension, but due to not having the funds, I must settle with something less, like dropzones..
I've heard alot of good things about them though, I heard they ride really good, great 'bang for the buck' and there constumer service is A++++
lifetime warranty etc

Then can't be THAT bad can't they coy
