Fellas,

I just installed my Illuminas, Pro-Kits and Rear Camber Kit on my 2G GSX.
I had my car aligned today and I have a couple of questions that maybe you someone can help me out with. Listed below is my camber Actual Readings and
Suggested Camber Range:

Left Front
Actual = -.9
Range = -0.6 - .4

Right Front
Actual = -1.6
Range = -0.6 .4

Left Rear
Actual = -0.5
Range = -1.8 - -0.8

Right Rear
Actual = -1.2
Range = -1.8 - -0.8

Do you think I need an Front Camber Kit with these readings? They do not seem to be that far out on the front, and the rear seems to be okay due to the Rear Camber Kit. Let me know your opinion please.

thanks
iron

Your left/right camber is way off.
 
YES .... you do !!!!!
My readings were......


RIGHT FRONT
ACTUAL = -.7

LEFT FRONT
ACTUAL= -1.2

RIGHT REAR= 0
LEFT REAR = 0

Then I put my front camber kits on and read "0" all the way around ....
anything more than .2 degrees is bad - or + !!!!!!

:rolleyes: ummm ok then...

You do not need one. I suggest trying it out like this for a while (maybe 5k miles or so) and rotating your tires ever 2k or so and see how the tires are looking. However you should be able to bring the right front and rear back down a little bit...
