FC or FD. What year is your car?

What you're asking for is an integrated coilover system. Economically, K2RD setup or Tein HA's.

All out but not that much more considering, JIC FLT-A2. I'm speaking for both FC or FD. However K2RD not available for FD.

If interested in any of these please let us know. We can walk you through a suspension to suit your needs.

Ah FD, just noticed in the profile.

I would suggest the FLT-A2, but be prepared to spend more than a thousand dollars and less than 2000. hehe. Contact me for your club pricing.

Otherwise get the TEin HA's which are around $1000.00. Much inferior but a good entry level suspension.

PLEASE REMOVE THE PROFANITY FROM YOUR SIG. I think we understand your statement fine. TIA.

Damn, if SFB can afford to buy $1000+ suspension at his age he is a BALLER

Shocks are unrelated to camber adjustments on the FD (i.e. no FD shock has camber adjustments -- they can't!). You adjust camber with the cam bolts on the body side of the lower arms.

The FC has a MacPherson strut front suspension, so camber plates (upper mount that lets you move the top of the strut around) can be used to change camber. I think Mazdatrix sells camber adjustment links for the rear. Much like on the FD, no rear shock for an FC can adjust camber.

Are you like stupid?
First you asking about an S13, which has nothing to do with this forum...
And then you're asking about "camber" adjustment, which you do with the suspension arms on an S13...

You own an S13?&nbsp Go talk to the guys at http://www.battleversion.com/
