I just installed my cusco comp-s coilovers and went to get the car aligned. I am told I will have to get a rear camber kit to ajust the car. Did they meant only rucas(rear upper camber) or more than that ? Cause the guy was charging 425$US of parts for both side. I said no and will buy the parts. What would I need (parts) and where whould I get it (online)?

Thanks,

I would imagine he was talking about a Camber Plate Kit. *a

just get some cusco plates or some that are compatible and RUCAs...if need be, you could get eccentric bolts...other than that, thats all for camber

Plates ? Why would I need plates to ajust my rear camber ? What I am talking about is something similar to this. I need info on REAR camber kit.

you dont...i thought you have problems up front also...in that case: get them; done and done...

search for like two seconds; there are countless threads on RUCAs...

You dont need camber plates for the rear obviously, but in the others' defense you never specified front or rear.

If you have an S14 then you already have eccentric bolts, but, they are only good for a couple degrees of camber and wont do much if you lower the car drasticly.

So to answer your question, yes, you want to get some adjustable rear upper controll arms.

Well in my post I said " rear camber kit ". For the front I will be able to ajust with my top plates. Do I need to by only the Rucas (upper) or do I need something else for the ajustement ?

the ones in that ebay link are the toe rod and RUCA, which are used to adjust rear toe and camber. Advantage of those SPC ones are the rubber mount instead of spherical pillow ball mounts, which would reduce ride quality a little bit (But increase road feel for performance). They also do not violate rules for some SCCA class restrictions.

also check out battle version, kazama, cusco, or SPL for pillowball equipped RUCAs

Well thats what I wanted to know and yes I searched, like I do everything I post. I wasn't sure if I needed both the Rear Upper Control Arms and the Rear Toe Link Arms but I guess I only need the Rear Upper Control Arms.
This is what I will get Rear Upper Control Arms
