I never put the car on the rack after installing just the springs so I can't give you a definite answer but I went with a camber kit.

I ended up buying the Dorman rear camber arms from Amazon since the are actually SPC arms in a different box and only $90. I also got SPC front camber bolts.

Would you happen to have the part number or seller info? I looked for them on Amazon and could not find them

The listing is for one side so buy 2 of them. 8thgen and 9thgen use the same part so no worries there....

I just ordered mine and should have them next week.

The problem is they aren't listed as fitting a 9th (even though they do) so if you search for them that way they won't show up.

I would get fronts just to get the fine tuning and "equal" angles on both sides. For 20$ can't really go wrong IMO

So i ordered billet pro shop base bushings from corsport 2 weeks ago and not only did i just get my shipment today but i got bps cable shifter bushings and not what i ordered. But on the bright side i ordered a bps short shifter that comes with the same base bushings. Now i just hope i can return these cable bushings and get some hybrid racing cable bushings.

That's a let down, I'd ask @CorSport to see if the HR bushings are in stock. They where 2-3 weeks back ordered from lack of supply. Their customer service was very helpful to me so I hope you get the same.

You should be fine. It's definitely a inconvenience when you waiting for parts and the wrong one arrives. If it's not what you ordered I'm sure they will take care of error.

Got my bps short throw today. :D Tomorrow I'll be digging into my center console to install this bad boy. And I think it's freaking awesome that they actually sent paper clips to hold the tabs open to get the stock one out because I didn't have any.

Installed the ss and base bushings today. It's supposed to be a 30% reduction but feels like a lot more. Took it out for a drive and kept thinking i was missing gears but it was in gear. It's going to take a little bit to get used to.

@littleshak have you deleted the cdv yet?
Not yet. I'm waiting to do that, ss clutch line, cable bushings, battery relocate, all at the same time. In preparation for a prl cai, but i want to get the cai and a flashpro at about the same time. But unfortunately i may have to wait until after Christmas for them
