at 1.5"+ drop you will need a camber kit. Honda's are non adjustable, so i learned. i have a 1.25" drop on Neuspeed Sport, supposed 2 B 1.8" but NOPE...no camber problems after checking it at the shop.

You can never be too sure until you get that alignment. Post in the suspension forum for more info if you haven't done so already.

what a manufacuter's specifications for a spring say is about .5 inches off... the car will settle into it and end up lowering the car more. you will need high performance shocks to go with those springs so that your car does blow a shock from the high spring rates adn the constant compression fo the lowering spring.

Don't be an idiot and get a coilover sleeve. There is a post about some nerd who got maxspeed coilovers and now his car bounces. do it right and get spring/chock combo or get a full coilover system, like tanabe or tien
