Default anyone with hks hypermax 2

I just need a quick yes or no answer. I've just bought some used coilovers and from what I understand the ride height is adjusted using perches. Will I need a camber kit with these even with a minimum drop? I just need to know so I can order them and have them installed at the time if need be. Thanks.

The Z is notoriously bad for it's ease of camber adjustablility. Meaning, it has little to no adjustablilty without replacing the camber arms. (and they ain't cheap!)
I just got mine as close to stock as possible and live with it.

for front camber, you need expensive A-arm replacement

for rear, you can go to IAPDirect and get the stuff for only $90 or $200 w/ toe correction

this car's suspensio sucks to modify, but it is a dream once it is done right.

I have the HKS Hipermax II coilovers and I dropped my car about .75" in both front and rear and I was still in alignment specs but barely. If you want to drop more than that you will need to get cambers arms and toe bolts. Don't forget it takes sometime for the suspension to settle also. I orginally did a 1/2" drop and it settled around 3/4".

Thanks, I guess I'll just install them without the camber kits and see what happens. The 350evo camber kit for the front and rear is $1535 damn!
