stunr would know i know they came with the camber plates on the ones i got 4 the 240.. but even without the camber plates they are awesome man
so do the D2's have the camber adjustment at the top, I'm thinking the only way to adjust for camber is through upper arm adjustments

camber plates do nothing on a multilink suspension,
all they would do is change the angle of the shock. which has zero effect on camber.
on all manufacturers you'll have a solid sluminum replacement upper mount or if they're cheap they use the stock one.
do a search and you should find some pictures of mine.

well you know i'm going red and black under the hood. Both will serve the function, but the Megan's will fit better with the color scheme ;) But i'll probably wait as i'm stocking up on some other items that will give you a real run for your money Jon.
don't wait. buy coilovers now. you can recoup some of yoru cost by selling your old setup.

i would, but i need to make sure i can cover the cost to refi my house, then with the money i'll save every month...
btw... i'm running daily on about 15psi... and loving it.
For what it is worth, you should check out the information on struts listed over on Far North Racing. Specifically his list of struts to buy.
This is based on his dyno testing huge numbers of shocks. It is very educational. He also has a "build your own koni coilovers" section. They are pricey but if you are serious about handling and not just slamming your ride they're worth it.Remember this list:
* Bilstein
* Penske
* Koni
* Ohlins
* Sachs
* Dynamic Suspension
Not on this list? Almost certainly crap.
I also suggest you read up on how lowering a car effects the suspension geometry and the problems it can cause besides excess camber. Knowing how your suspension works really helps save you money in the long run and helps you understand a very important part of your car.

Had them on my 8g. Currently have em on my Lexus. No problems to me.
Accident. Deemed Unfixable. Got a check for it.
As educational as it may be, and as experienced as even he may be, that doesn't mean that Megan's, JIC's, Tein's, Eibach, or any other type of spring or coilover is garbage. I would say he has a somewhat limited viewpoint and should be taken for his opinions at face value and no more. I doubt he has even used every brand around, let alone actually pulled the unit apart and inspected the internal valving or anything else.
I'm just saying that given his experience I'd go with something I KNOW is a good setup and dyno proven not just based on cost and word of mouth.
With that said, he may not have tested these particular shocks. You could always ask him though.Originally Posted by From Far North Racing

If you are on a budget, the Yonakas are a good option, they just arent adjustable other then height. +You get $50 off if you register.
7g for life!
word. the yonakas are decent, a little too bouncy on the rougher roads no matter how you preload the springs, but they're pretty awesome if you get on some smooth gravel
