I'm going to be putting together a suspension system soon and I got a couple questions. This is all for daily driving from school/work and back (I'm about to get really bust) So I'm not going to be slammed and want a good ride. Here's what I was thinking about.

I'm getting the FUNCTION & FORM LOWER CONTROL ARMS, Should I get TEIN BASIC COILOVER DAMPER or FUNCTION & FORM TYPE 1?

Or should I got with a Shock & spring build and not waste money?

Alsp should I get camber kits or not? I'm not going to be slammed. or should I get them anyway if I can to prevent tire wear?

for daily drive and not for hardcore track use... shock and spring will do IMO

actually it depends on your preferences in using your car..

HTH

When lowering a car the tires are always going to sit different (camber) and create inner tire wear. Even a slight amount of camber causes uneven tire wear. I would know because I have a slight camber, and am getting wear on the inside of my tires (thus why I am buying a camber kit today). If you search around you can find a solid no name camber kit for $170 - $200. Skunk2 makes a no name camber kit beside their name brand camber kit in the factory, and it sells for cheaper. For less than $200 I feel it's worth it to save your tires from uneven wear.

For daily driving and not wanting to be slammed, you can go with a good spring/strut combo. Such as Eibach springs and Tokico/KYB/Koni struts.

You dont really need RLCAs but I would suggest Function7s over all others.


With the not slammed status you want, dont waste your time on camber kits. Get a good alignment and you will be fine. Neither of my cars have camber kits and neither show abnormal wear from being alot lower than what you want.

I'm on Tokico Shocks right now with H&R springs but IDK how much drop they give me and I want 1-2" more.

skunk2 loweing springs and tokico blues did it for me

If you want something that's going to last you a long time and that you can adjust for everyday use or even to be lower, I'd get the function and form type 1's. They run for about $500-630. Not SUPER expensive but you can adjust them anytime you want to .

Also I think one of my shocks in the front is missing the rubber piece at the top, IDK what it's called but I was looking at it today and it's missing on one side. where can I get that?

junkyard or honda.

Thats where I'm going tomorrow.
