The front is adjusted with crash bolts (very cheap) and the rear is adjusted with adjustable upper control arm cams. Not really a lot of other options.


What Solo2EG says is totally correct ... there is NO FACTORY Camber adjustment .... ONLY Toe.

The ONLY way to adjust Camber up front on the OE struts is with $20 crash bolts.
In the Rear to create ANY sort of noticible camber change you need an adjustable arm, washers will not cut it.


I would RUN AWAY from any "professional" shop that claims this sort of BS ... because "fixing" camber any other way is NOT profesional.


Keep something in mind here ...Solo2Eg WORKS for Honda (Engineer) , and is a Mechanic for one of the Factory back race-teams ... I would say that he is a better source of info on Honda's than most on this board.
