Default SPC Camber Kit and SAGE RCA?

Is a RCA kit different then the SPC Camber kit? I Wanna correct camber but the SPC Camber kit only corrects up to 1degree? Anyone with the Sage RCA kit have any information on how much it helped your camber?

Thanks

HAHA Tom you're a good student.

SPC will only correct camber for a mild drop.

If you drop further, start by reading this thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sus...gs98-05-a.html



Exact will be Present at EOS . If you order by phone, you could save on shipping by picking it up from them directly at the meet.

Default hopefully not a noob question?

ive been reading some threads about these RCA's. and am a bit confused, for the a rear RCA from lets say Exact, why would i buy a rear RCA to fix a camber issue vs an adjustable rear control arm?

Arent they around the same price?

RCA will work regardless, it has nothing to do your struts

I guess price difference, availability, also it can help correct the geometry of the car?

like i said, availability doesnt seem to be an issue, and there isnt much of a price diff. When you say correct the geometry of the car, are you referring to the RCA's?


anybody else? thoughts?

Control arms weren't available long ago, ateast not inexpensive ones. So in the past RCA's were the best solution at that time. RCA's also help improve the roll center (this is the geometry that is being corrected), not just adjust camber, plus it is a bit easier to install.


I didn't know control arms were getting that inexpensive. Which vendor are you referencing from?
