    I THINK MY MECHANIC DID SOMETHING WRONG.
    He installed the A-Spec's.
    After picking up my car today I notice an uneven drop from left to right.
    The front drivers side and the back passenger sides are higher than the other sides.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Only a bit, BUT I just did a front and rear alignment and now it's all good. I do have a very slight pull to the right but the alignment shop said it should work itself out. What do you think about that?
    THANKS.

    would a 2006 a-spec suspension work on a 2002 ep3? I noticed there were a 02-04 and 05-06 a-spec suspensions on ebay.

    EDIT: Added to Front Page. I see some of my pics have been taken down from the uploader site.. I have them saved on my external at home, I'll have to re-upload them through a different site and get the broken pics fixed.

    Thanks a lot for this post!!!
    I don't have much experience with ep3 suspension and I wanted to know if you had any issues with wheel alignment and what kind of new tires to get...???...
    I have 215/45zr/17's on Konig 17 wheels and after A-spec install/ alignment rsx end links and new ball joints the car pulls to the left. The alignment shop says new ball joints will do that but it should work itself out, your input please. thanks.

    In my experience, general mechanic shops/alignment service shops are all a bunch of fucks. There's no way to put it nicely. I had to take my car back to the same place twice because the person didn't know what the hell they were doing. I asked for a refund the first time, and after a long debate and complaining, they just wouldn't budge so I gave them hell until they did my alignment properly. At first, he said my front camber wasn't adjustable and that I need "special" bolts. I told him, no, I DO have those "special" bolts, and they're called eccentric camber bolts. Long story short, after multiple times, they finally got it right.. My word of advice is to just make sure you look over the before and after alignment readout. I got my alignment completely zero'd out..

    +/- 0 Camber
    +/- 0 Toe
    with 225/50/16 wheel setup

    Usually, people need to give their alignment negative camber to make it "fit" and not rub, but if your car can run your wheel setup with zero'd out alignment specs, then you're pretty much gravy for whatever camber adjustments you want (as long as the wheel setup remains the same). If you're just DD'ing, I don't see any reason not to run anything but 0's all around. If you want it to be a little aggressive, just go for -1.0 in the front, and -0.5 in the rear.

    Again, great info ep3 fam...thanks a lot.
    ok, I meant to say it pulls a lil to the right...
    What are those eccentric camber bolts you spoke of?
    Should I pick up some Eibach, Ingalls, or SPC camber bolts?

    Any of those should work really. The eccentric camber bolts have lobes on them, almost like a cam shaft and they allow you to adjust the camber that way, because of the McPherson type of strut design our cars have.

    Wish I would have saved for this instead of my racelands. They're great the only thing is I decided I don't like being too low. When i get some more monies I will probably get a specs.

    Agreed - nice writeup, but is there any way to get all the pics back up?
