Neuspeed Spring owners check in here...

I'm pretty set on getting a Neuspeed drop, but I would like to see some pics if possible. Did you need a camber kit, new shocks, both?

Let me know, so I have an idea as to what I need to buy...or not buy cause I'm so damn cheap.

camber kit, it'd save you money on having to get new tires all the time...it goes for about 50 bucks...

Do a neuspeed search on the forum you should find alot of info with pictures included. Nuespeed does appear to be a nice drop but anything lower than 1.5 on almost any car will need a camber kit. If the car is older than five years and you are going to use lowering springs I would change the struts also because whatever life they have left will disappear very quickly when you lower the car. This will all add up. There is no cheap way to do a quality drop.

hell yea dude, im down for a cheap (albeit good) camber kit.

i went by tybrid performance here in austin the other day. they wanted 200 to install everything. the guy said that camber kit would be free to install, but they charge 250 for the neuspeed springs and 185 for the camber kit. they also said i can bring my own stuff, so ill save big on that.

i know i can get the neuspeed sports for 145 shipped, but what is a decent camber kit and how much do they go for?

I've got pics on page 2 of my W W W. Eibach vs neuspeed sport. I needed camber kits front and rear. I'm in Canada, my camber kit was $140.00 cdn for front and $170.00 cdn rear.

DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME!!!! Dude take the advice or you'll end up spending more in the long run. I had enough for so many mods: air ride lambo doors but it all went to suspension and tires.

Yes, the Neuspeed drop requires a camber kit! You'll eat through tires in just a few months if you don't have one, trust me, I know!

The CL has the Neuspeed's on stock struts with no camber kit. No major tire wear as long as you rotate your tires. I seen a bad ass Camber kit for the Cl that was like $300 it was adjustable, it also came powder coated, will end up getting it when the air ride is installed to reduce negative camber when the car is air out.

I got Neuspeed springs and just left my factories on there for now until I get the money to get new struts. Mine at first slammed my car, then I got 18's and it didn't looked so slammed but after riding a while the ride highth is good except on the driverside front I think my strut has went out.

yes, ive installed my camber kit myself...along with my springs and struts.....installed it all myself...progressive and ingalls are a good co to look at for camber kits....expect to pay about 150 ave. for a good kit...and thats just the front...you wont need rear....besides...there is no "camber adj" for the rear...theres only adjustable lower controll arms...but i promise....you wont need a kit in the rear....check my www for pics of my setup... muespeeds sports/kyb agx/ progressive front camber kit......... oh, and do it all at once...otherwise youre wasting money and time
