    Default LCA's for integra

    i have been looking at billet lower control arms for my 96 teg and i have noticed many manufacuters mention something about more clearance due to the camber being diff. with the new LCA's. Will they make a diff. and if so would the camber be even more negative or a little more positive?????
    thanks for any feedback..........

    I was always under the impression that LCAs don't do much for your car except aesthetics only. They don't do anything for camber.

    shouldnt change the alignment, if so, take it to a reliable shop, they can fix that.

    yea i think 250hp is my goal which is an underachievement, but i want a dependable daily driver and can turn up the boost if i go to the drag strip(which will be rare) they dnt have many events around this area..man im hurt

    the main reason that poeple change the LCA's on honda/acuras because when you lower your car, the stock lower control arms are a ***** to take off and sometimes the bushings have to be heated out so the arms can be removed
