Thanks guys, Update - springs will be here on Monday and hopefully I’ll have time to install them \* adapters will be sent out next Wednesday becaus they haven’t been built yet and they have alot of orders for the waterfest show. ---

springs are in today, although i don’t really know where to start or how to put them on, just looking at it briefly they seem very different from a bmw suspension a picture with the fitment im going for, just a little less camber in the rear ![http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/394721_393594550703273_1432229072_n.jpg](http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/394721_393594550703273_1432229072_n.jpg) ---

they are real easy to do. you just need to get a spring compressor. ---

I rented a spring compressor and went at it with a friend yesterday, it wasn’t necisarily difficult but because I didn’t have a lift or power tools it was terrible lol it took us a long time with alot of struggling Front are in and today I’ll tackle the rear from what I hear is easier. update\* rears are in and were much easier then the fronts pics will be up soon ---

camber in the rear is really off, looks like i will need a camber arm to get rid of that but i will wait and see how the wheels look first with the camber and ill go from there ![http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll267/d_svraka39/60a14c54.jpg](http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll267/d_svraka39/60a14c54.jpg) ![http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll267/d_svraka39/1fa27a26.jpg](http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll267/d_svraka39/1fa27a26.jpg) ![http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll267/d_svraka39/0f591dab.jpg](http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll267/d_svraka39/0f591dab.jpg) ---

On most hondas and acuras, the rear upper control arm/camber link attaches to the side of the frame (bolts horizontal). Shimming it further out can correct for negative camber. If your camber link attaches to the bottom of the frame (bolts vertical) like on an RSX, you can’t do it. [http://www.acura-tsx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=473539](http://www.acura-tsx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=473539) Longer bolts in same size and thread (bring the old ones to home depot or lowes to figure out thread, probably M10 X 1.25 or 1.5, and a couple of flat washers = camber corrected for under $10. And you can get stainless hardware that won’t rust to shit. ---
