Lowering the car;more questions.

I know, this has been beaten almost to death around here. I can't find what I'm looking for with a search of the forum, so I'll ask, and maybe someone will take pity on me.

I've decided to go with the new (I think it's new) Koni-Eibach combination, they call it "FSD".

But there was a mention of "something" that needs to be changed/added in order to get the camber adjustment and I don't remember what it was. Can one of you fine gentlemen hook me up?

Really? I vaguely remember something else, but you're probably right.

Customer Service from Koni was less than stellar, so I changed my mind and went local. Did the H&R sport, no need for shocks or camber kit.

Looks nice and feels a bit more stable. I'm happy

If you are worried about the camber, you will need the eccentric bolts for the front to make the camber adjustable. You can get these at any dealership for about $80 for all 4. The rears will need a custom camber kit. I have done a lot of research and the only 2 places where i have found good ones were K-Mac, and speedybenz.org (or .com) I actually bought the ones from speedybenz for $250 and they are awesome.

I think thats all you need, unless you want to upgrade the sway bar?
