well i dont know how the 89 CRX suspension is set up, but if it's anything like the 94-01 integras setup, then the camber kit should be a quick an easy install. i did the install on my integra in about 1 hour.

im not sure what type of camber kit this is. is it the one that replaces the whole upper control arm or the kit that comes with four pieces that attaches to the upper control arm. the one that i put in the car came with the four peices that attches to the Upper control arm. if yours is the one that the four pieces attaches to the upper control arm then this is how i did my install:

-ofcourse jack the car up and support it w/ kack stands and remove the front wheels.

-look by the wheel well by the front tires and locate where the stock camber is connected to the upper control arm. You will see a 14mm bolt and nut that is on the side of the stock camber. remove the nut. Do this for both stock camber peices.

-Now open up your hood and remove the 2 17mm nuts that attaches to the camber peices. do this for both sides of the car.

-after u remove the nuts, use a rubber mallet or a hammer and tap the bolts that these nuts were just attached to, down and out of the hole.

-now get back under the car by the front wheel well and try to pull the whole upper control arm down a bit. once there is enough room, remove the 14 mm bolt that goes through the stock camber(both sides). once this is done, u can take out the stock camber peices from the upper control arm. with the camber pieces removed, your gonna have to rotate the whole upper control arm a total of 180 degress. (your gonna have to wiggle the control arm a bit to do this). this will give u some room to work with installing the aftermarket adjustable camber pieces.
install the new aftermarket camber kit onto the upper control arm.

-now the install is the above steps in reverse.

(NOTE: you wont be able to use the metal bar that connects the two stock camber pieces)

i know it's kinda confusing, but this is what worked for me. let me see if i can get u some pictures....



i have no expierence with the other type of camber kit- the one that replaces the whole upper control arm. its the skunk 2 camber kit. but that one looks fairly easy to install as well.
