STI suspension and camber?

Post by Hinano »

So I picked up some 04 STI struts and springs with less than 20k miles for around $400 for my 90 sedan.

I am reading that the rears might have some camber issues.. Is it unstreetable or just not "perfect?"

Would you guys recommend replacing anything else while doing the suspension?

Should be fine I think. Get some camber bolts for the rear just in case. New brakes?

Remember that this is 10 year old suspension... luckily they can be rebuilt for $$$.

rear camber bolts and you're set..

as far as mounting . you'll need to re-use your rear top mounts, or re-drill 1 hole and use the stock sti rear mounts
