toe can be adjusted without kits, its part of the stock drivetrain.

cast and camber you can do with the ingalls dealies.

i recommend the washer trick in the back, and use some of those egay or skunk2 upper control arms for the front, adjustable they are...mmmmm

I got the Skunk2 ones. They worked fine. Damn hondas and their basic suspensions.

Caster is a pain in the *** to get considering honda decided to be dicks overall and make the radius arm non adjustable. Usually when caster is off something has to be bent wether it's the frame or some component, but if you want to be uber 1337 grand tourismo style unlimited adjustments pimp. You can always buy strut mount plates for close to 150 or traction bars for 400, anyone else know about methods of adjusting caster?

are you referiing to the Tein strut mount plates? those seem pretty reasonable. I bought one of those egay ones and they didnt fit on my upper control arms. i had to grind off some material but that only made it worse. my caster got fucked cause of those egay camber kits. i since reverted to my old bushings and deal with a little negative camber. Who makes good camer kits? i know that the Ef doesnt have a arms that are adjustable like the Eg's.

By the looks of the whole thing skunk2 has a real nice setup (if it can survive real torture) for a damn good price, besides no one and their momma ever replaces those upper control arms so why not just throw on a new fresh set.

Pillow ball plates = better have your punani in check because you're going to feel alot more of the road. Also i think that camber wasnt adjustable in civics until 2k+ and thats hardly adjustable at somewhere like + - .5.
