For the rear, just put on a couple of washers. no need to pay for a rear kit.


It is...most if not all of Blox stuff is copies of Skunk2.

camber kit is not really needed at all. Set the toe for all four wheels and you should be good.

If you really want to waste money to make your mind rest easy, then just get the front and add washers to the back.

yeah Blox is like a brand off of Skunk 2. Basically if it's not Skunk2 status they call it Blox and give it a different color.

And yeah, no need for a camber kit at all unless you wanna be like g-rat and run some crazy flush-status rims.

- Tue May 12, 2009 9:58 pm #116429 ya i know no one will see it but i will. same thing as front swaybars and stuff. ppl paint em for the bling but unless you change the oil you never see em. plus i dont feel like eating my tires with my camber. i can see the tires lean inwards. but if camber is bad y do most of you say dont get it?

If you're all about the looks, then low offsets and tons of negative camber to make the lot legal is where it's at. For instance:

If you're about the handling, then a good dose of negative camber helps steering feel in a corner and provides you with a bit more grip.

In all of the above cases to get the most out of the car you will want a camber kit ideally. It's not neccessary though.

- Tue May 12, 2009 11:06 pm #116452 well thank you . i will be doing some autocross this year so yes its not just for looks but for the performance. my camber is pretty negative. yes i know all cars have some negitve camber. i want to be able to do adjustments to my car for daily use and adjust camber when needed. so if it improves the way my car handels the i will get them. its not a money thing nor do i see the money being put in my car as a waste. i want my car to look good and drive good. and the one thing i wanna focus on now is the suspension. thanks for the comments. :thumb:

If you are going to get a camber kit, get something better than a blox one. If you try to slam your car with them it's going to hit your shock tower and destroy it (been there done that). Plus the bushings don't last a long time. Just a little fyi..I think buddy club or another brand makes them to have the rivets or allen screws facing down so it doesn't destroy the shock tower. Plus if you take it to an alignment shop like I did that doesn't know wtf they are doing they will say they adjusted it but they won't and try to make some long ass explantion as to why they can't. The guy that did mine the first time tried to tell me that you have to take the wheels off to adjust the front but you don't. So if you get one and want a shop to adjust it for you then I recommend going to someone that knows wtf they are doing lol. Not just any alignment shop.
