Hi Everyone,

Need a little help with recommendation on a set of front camber plates or bolts?
I'm currently running buddy club n+ on my jdm ep3, trying to source out which method will be better for running some camber at front.
Any recommendation on which brand to use??

Thanks

Are you looking for a cheap option, something functional and affordable, or something fully-functional built for the track?

Your options really are Camber Bolts($20-40), K-sport camber plates (~$350), or Todds Racing Caster Plates ($400+)

I would opt with the last option due to function, You will be able to adjust caster, allowing you to gain camber when cornering, but not during straight line driving.

I run both on my car.. SPC camber bolts and I ditched the stock Megan camber plates for some Ebay RSX ones. The Ebay plates are way better quality then the ones that came on the Megans and have more camber adjustability.

I got a question. Im order tein superstreets at the end of march. And i am getting the upper pillow ballmounts with them. Do I still need the camber bolt or plates in the front? Do the pillow ball mounts already have that camber plate? I am getting a k-sport rear camber kit.

Camber bolts wouldn't hurt, though with these you don't NEED them. With the Tein SS you do not need these plates, your coils will have them. Have you looked into buddy club or anything comparable to the Tein SS? Those camber plates above paired together with some Progress coilovers would be a great solution for cheaper.

I have and just feel that for what I want the teins will fit me best....Plus from what I understand atleast there quality is second to none.

It's all bananas to me. In that price range it's all comparable. To get something really trackable more money needs to be spent.

The build quality is great, especially for $75. Uniform, solid construction, good hardware.

Will these work with Raceland? The link below points to RSX 02-06 Camber Plates so I am not sure.

is it possible to mount these aftermarket top mounts with OE springs/shocks?

No they won't, I tried to make my tein pillow palls work with race lands (the teins were completely destroyed in an accident) don't work. Wrong dimensions completely. So I am sure the other way around will not work either.

Yup.

Would these plates work on my skunk2 pro s coilovers? I need to add some neg camber and am debating between these and just camber bolts. Thanks for the help.
