Tein Suspension + EDFC

Hey guys, just a quick couple questions for those that have this kit or know someone who does:

1. My local shop is offering the SS + EDFC + S&H all for $1530 OTD. Is this a good deal for a "sponsored" price?

2. Will it be absolutely necessary to get the camber adjusters for the front and the rear camber arms if I'm going to keep the standard 0 deg in the front and -2 deg in the rear? I plan on lowering the car about 1.5-1.25 front to rear.

Thanks in advance...

i don't know the answer to number 1 but...

for the cambers, yes. since most of the powers go to the front wheels, a camber is recommended. $30 is not a lot to dish out, why not right?

the rear camber is recommended for anything over 1", although 1" isnt a lot, to maintain the camber, its wise if you get it. unless tire wear doesn't bother you and you'd rather have the better handling and replacing tires every couple of months, then no. but its all up to you.

For #1, that is a "retail" deal at a "sponsored" lie.

That's what I thought too...

Which is why I wanted to see what other's thought. Hell--showstoppers from FGcoupe forums offered to do almost the exact same price straight away.

Lol of course. But chuck should hook you up better. Just tell him that you're looking for the best price. Maybe 1400 if he can do. Shoot low so he'll go low! = )
