new to this forum,say hi to every one.

i am thinking of getting coilovers, tei basic /SS.
i will do a 2" drop after the coilover, my question is do i need camber kit?
some ppl told me i don't need one, some ppl told i do need one, so will same car with the same coilover and the same drop produce different camber reading? one person told me he has basic, and 2"drop all around, his camber is oly -1.25, with in spec. please help me.
thanx for any help.

Welcome to HAN and nice car.
I dont think you need a drop, The wheel gap looks good in the picture but that could be just the picture. How much wheel gap do you have BTW.
Edit: I think you will need a camber kit if you do a 2 inches drop.

the gap about 3fingers
reflection of the hood.

trunk. note the cheap rear bumper paint job...
side. from gap is bigger than the rear, may be that's because i have amps
and sub on the rear, or maybe the rear shocks are gone?

Looks good with those Volks.... 
As for a camber kit, if you go to a 2" drop, you should get a camber kit ONLY if your rims will allow it. What i mean is that if your srims stick out too much (depending on the offset), a camber kit will cause them to straighten out and possibly rub.
