    You don't need a camber kit with the Mugens. King installed mine for about $140, including the alignment.

    I agree with them all, taht under a 1.5" dropper, you dont need a camber kit. But, if you ever plan on dropping more, it is always a good idea. Do it right the first time is my belief, because I have done it half ass way too muich and in the long run lost too much cash

    You can't drop the Mugens below 1.4", so it's a waste of time and money getting a camber kit. If you ever want more of a drop, you've got to take everything apart again anyway.

    From what I've heard with people who have the Mugen suspension all but one person installed a camber kit. The person who didn't install the camber kit was boarder line of needed one, sorry I can't remember the specs. If you do some searching on here you may be able to dig up the thread. I asked the same question a while back when I got my Mugens suspension. I havn't had a chance to install them yet or I'de be able to help you out a little more. Now about how much it would cost to install them, I asked around locally before I got mine and I was told $350. That seems to be rediculously high though. It seems like most people on here pay about $150.

    It is a much easier process. You take out the whole strut housing, and insert the Mugens. Ask hatch, si hatch. He has them, and was there when we did my H&R springs. Big difference not having to take the springs off.
