Well I can happily say that my suspension is finally on. Only took me, my dad, and my grandad 3 1/2 hours. After riding around, I would say those TEIN SS's are a great grab. Very smooth. However Ive dropped my backend a little to much, so I will be raising it up this morning. I will also take a few pictures now that my car doesnt look like a 4x4. :yay:

However I do have a few questions I would like to ask in regards to the toe/camber. I went to big ten to get my front end aligned after I installed my suspension. He told me that everytime I raise and lower the car (even if its just a tiny bit) that it will mess up the toe/camber, So I only got the front end aligned since I needed to raise the back of my car. After looking at the toe/camber specs for my car and what my actual car should be, (its off by about .75 in the toe in the rear), I was curious how long I could go w/o getting that rear end aligned before those tires back there go to crap?

Also, if anyone cares or wants to know, I can give you the toe/camber specs for the Integra (front and rear). Oh, another thing I wanted to know, would the toe/camber specs be different for a TYPE R? Thats what they had for the specs, and I only have an LS. I thought the suspesion setup was different in the TYPE R?

OK last quesiton. I just hit my 75,000 mile mark. Engine Maintenance light came on. Now i know where the button is to reset it, but I am curious what all they do at the dealership for the 75,000 mile tune up? Also I was curious how much that tune up costs?

Sorry for so many questions,

TOe will wear tires quickly I would make your height adjustments and get everything lined up. I personally don't pay any attention to specs. I like 1/8" TOTAL Toe out in the front and Zero toe in the rear. THis is easy on tires and good for turn in. Camber you likely don't have control over and don't need to stress over unless it is more than -2 degrees. Some camber is good.

Type-R Factory specs are different. I've worked on a few alignment machines and they have all specified ITR and Non ITR.

 

That F-ing redneck. I knew it was different and all he says "Yea, they are all the same."

 

They probably give the basic tune up shops give but they're suppose to be pros in their area of work....Bullsnit i believe they r not....so if u can give ur car an oil change,swap plugs and at that mileage change the timing belt dont waste ur time or money goin to the dealership.
