Blackworks camber kit is decent. I have the blackworks front camber kit on my track car and it takes one hell of a beating and has held up fine. I am not sure why Ganyon said blackworks stuff sucks. Blox does for sure, but all of the blackworks stuff I have seen has been decent. So far that is.

AvilesDC2 I agree justinMcGee tein is a real good product that's what I was running on my evo8. And I have heard good reviews on function & form. That's why I'm going with function & form type 2.
And now all I need to figure out is a camber kit set up and some LCA.

If I were to buy front and rear camber kits, I would purchase either buddy club kits, or HardRace kits, My brother has hard race camber kit on his integra and they are high quality and been working great. I have skunk2 camber kits on my integra and they also work great. But I think i'd prefer hard race over all. As for LCA's I'm most likely getting function 7 LCA's for my civic and integra in the future. Nick4dei brought up good info about ASR LCA's if you like those more

Skunk 2 Pro+ front and rear camber kits, Buddy Club LCA's, Blox toe kit, and Function & Form Type 2 coilovers is what I run. Setup handles like it's on rails and allows me to hook way better than any of my previous setups as I run a good amount of boost.

This is all going to be a preference thread. Everyone is going to say what they like and give little to no reasons why. My opinion to wanting coilovers is this:

Coilovers are good. Cheap coilovers are not. Any coilover set up that is under 1300 is not worth getting. You would be better off getting Koni Yellows with ground controls. It will be a lot better set up and it comes with a lifetime warranty, which is WAY better than the 1 year the tein come with. Koni is one of the best shock manufacturers offered for our cars and it is weird to me that people do not take advantage of it more. Another perk to look at having a 2 part system is that Koni focuses on the valving. That is all they are worried about, ground control focuses on the sleeve and eibach focuses on the springs. This means all 3 companies are specialists and only have 1 thing to worry about. When a company has the whole package it costs them a lot of money and in order to sell it at a budget price they skimp on quality. Making a coilover is not cheap, which is why good ones are expensive.

I am starting to ramble here...it has been a long ass day, but to sum it up; Cheap coilovers like tein basics, and function form have shitty valving and retarded spring rates. Yes they work, but are they worth getting over the koni yellows? Nope. People frown on the koni gc set up because it isn't a "real" coilover. Well it is set up better than most coilovers that are even double its price..I will take that over having a "real" coilover any day. I care about performance, not name.

Do you adjust the blox toe kit yourself or you had a shop do it?

How is that blox toe kit? Because I have seen blox sway bar endlinks and they were the sloppiest pieces of shit I have ever laid eyes on. I can't imagine any of their suspension parts are better.

Is this a comfort setup?
Do you have a link where I can find it on?
And is It hard to put together?
