I have a few questions that I need to know about a 1999 non-sh prelude.
1. Im going to drop my lude anywhere from 2.25-2.5 in. so does anybody know if I will need a camber kit? If I do... shoudl I get front and back? and what is a good brand?

2. where can I find suspension parts for the cheapest price?
3. I went to lightningmotorsports.com and priced skunk 2 coilovers KYB AGX adjustables and ingalls camber kit for 1018.72... is this over priced?

if youre going to lower it that much yeah a camber kit would help a hell of a lot. i think you only need the back kit but the front wouldnt hurt to have either but check up on that because im not 100% sure. and that price you got quoted isnt terribly bad but you could definitely find cheaper on http://www.groupbuycenter.com hope that helps.

You might be able to ghetto rig the back with just some longer bolts and washer....I know you can do that with an Integra....but I dunno about Preludes. The front you will definately need a camber kit though.

That is wayyyy too much money

Skunk2 coilovers -- $269 most places
KYB AGX -- $350 most places
Ingalls -- figure $200 for the front and 100 for the back

I wouldnt even worry about the front camber kit and you can make your own in the back using washers (at least on civics...) so theyre another $300 right there.

I think it would increas neg. camber anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 degrees but dont quote:20b4c1393f me on that.IMO 2 inches is way too much on a prelude.I would do 1.5.
