DC5-R and Acura RSX

[Rallydrive-R]

Hi

I am thinking of ordering a camber adjustment kit from the US as one of my relatives is coming to the UK.

Wanted to know if the Acura RSX 02 kit would fit the Dc5-R?

Thanks in advance!

actually i think the RSX has different suspension, same shape compnents etc but certainly the R has different springs, lower arms(alloy) and stiffer struts, the US market would never put up with such a hard ride as standard.
so be sure of what you order.
but the camber kit may be ok,
sort of a round about way to get these things :!:

i might be wrong but i didnt think you could do much to the camber on the type r dc5?

Brought mine back from the States front and rear and they fit fine, got them from these people great quality and price though I think they are out of the rear adjusters at the moment.

Ingalls do them as well http://www.ingallseng.com/cars/acura.html

Transforms the handling you need about 2.5 degrees negative on the front and 1.5 on the rear.

The Ingalls front adjuster bolts will only give you about 1.5 degrees which is not enough realy but very cost effective.

As far as I know the only thing that wont fit is the front sway bar due to the RSX having different pick up points on the LCA.

Hope this helps

If its just the camber kit it will fit.
Like state above the only difference is the LCA, springs, and calipers. Other then that its the same as the rsx. Camber kit will do just fine.
