What kind of drop you're looking for, I use to be on Swift 1.5 all around I thought the sport springs and by setting the konis on the lowest perch was going to be enough but it was not I still have a gap in the rear, other than that they handle great I have thenm set 1.5 turn from soft to stiff.
Where are you located at I'm looking for someone to swap race for my sport springs.

I'm about 650 miles now and yes I have about 1 full finger gap in the rear, the front is perfect is just the rear that bothers.

You have any pics.

Yeah, i just talk to the guy that going to install the suspension for me he said" i need to have the front camber kit but not the rear" so this is really confused me.

i really think hes wrong about that haha i would wait and get the kit put on and than go get an alignment and you will see than that the back will be way off compared to the front...other than that i cant really help you too much about that..but i do know that alot of people jsut run rears and not both

Before I got the neuspeed sport I used to be on swift springs 1.5 all around, when I went to get my alignment they told me I only needed camber in the rear, I think Trojanman is right.

I recently had the same kit installed. After alignment they were able to bring the toe in perfectly and the camber was just within specs so I'm going without a camber kit. I'm on the 3rd perch with the sport springs.

You don't necessarily need a camber kit at all. Under most circumstances as long as your alignment is good and you toe is close to zero you should not have problems with tire wear.

set it to soft for the first month... and if you fix the toe you wont require a camber kit... the camber kit is mandatory for the race springs

pm excelerate he'll help you out with any further questions

Thanks for all the advised above and i have just made the purchased with Exelerate hope it come out nice. Also why do i need to set it soft for the first month? do you mean i must adjust the shock after the first month? and is it hard to adjust the shock?

its to get the full life out of your shocks
to adjust is really easy...you should have gotten a "knob" with your kit...its white...you can see under your hood where you can place that knob and twist to stiffen them up...and for the rears youll have to take out the rear seat (super easy) and you can see on each side under the hat rack where you can place the knob and twist to stiffen
hope taht helps
