I do mostly Highway driving so the Si isn't too bad for me. There is some HEAVY traffic at times on the Highway here at some times though... Usually I can avoid it due to my work hours though. Currently I drive 60 miles round trip to and from work. The first thing I did was add the subwoofer I had in my Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V lol...
Yeah man ex isnt bad but its just not powerful at all but ill get an si or wrx eventually...

you may be confused about camber. Camber is the angle the wheels are at. The car will gain negative camber as you lower it. To correct negative camber, or to be able to set how much camber you want, you need camber arms for the rear & bolts for the front.





too much negative camber and you'll wear tires on the inside edge -



Regardless of lowering springs or coilovers, you'll need an alignment after the installation. Some people wait a week or so to let the springs settle.

Nope not confused about camber at all. I am curious as to what I said that made you think that? I GREATLY appreciate your concern and willingness to correct. That shows a great community willing to help.

When you lower your car it's as if you have an "added load" and thus increases your camber. I still think camber adjustments will help with alignment as you lower a car

The Sentra Spec V was a blast.... not gonna lie the SI is LEAPS AND BOUNDS above the Sentra Spec V. I was sad to see them get rid of it for the 13-14 models. However, Now I am glad or I would have NEVER looked at a Honda. the Automatic Sentra is shitty imo now that I look at it.

My comment was directed at another member. I just wasn't sure if they understood what camber arms did.

Who or where did you order them from?

I ordered them from one of the websites this site talked about. GFX Expressions or something of the sort. They are legit JDM though for sure. I installed them today. So I will post a few pictures tomorrow!

Here are the pics: I was at my girlfriends so I did it on the fly instead of dismantling things to "properly" remove the emblems.
