you have to look under eibach, the eibach is a reboxed SPC kit. http://www.ajusa.com/details/index/2....50L%20V6%20FI
Comes with both the camber arms and toe bolts even though it only says camber arm

FYI... PS2's are not directional - they don't have a rotation direction. The original Pilot Sports were, but not the PS2's

It's best to have your camber in check along with the ability to adjust it, but a lot of times one must weigh the cost of tires versus a camber kit.

I figure the camber kit along with install and alignment is about $400-500 all together. Rear tires depending on your size, will roughly be the same price. Again if you got 25K miles out of your rear tires and are still going, your camber really isn't that bad and is likely within spec.

valid point but i guess i'm doing this more of a trial and error just to see if there is a difference.

if i can remember right, i heard somewhere before that with the spc camber kit, it should only be install if our cars are drop on coils or spring+shock, and not spring alone. can anyone confirm this? im not saying its true or not, i just heard and remember reading it somewhere in this forum a few days ago.

Or you can do it yourself for ~$200 total including alignment

Yep, I just installed the SPL ones on a guys car this last weekend. Very nice product. Wish I was at my house though with my tools it would have made life easier. But basically all it takes is removing two bolts one on each end, but you also need to remove the sway bar mounts where it attachs to the frame of the car so you can remove the factory bolt. Otherwise, it took less than 2 hrs total with a bunch of goofing off.

I don't have the instructions in front of me, but the SPL camber arms have adjustments for Camber and Toe. There was instructions on how to adjust both but I didn't read that part throughly since I was just worried about getting it installed he would take it to the alignment shop.

SPL camber arms. The bolts adjust the toe they send with them.

Yes, the SPC toe bolts. Where did you install them, on the end of the camber arm or the spring bucket? and did you elongate the hole?
