Acura Integra build..

[JeffYoung]

Yes and yes.

Jeff the front end is double a arm so no on the camber plates.

Be careful on the "yes" for rear camber adjustment "bushings". Technically, Jeff's right, but Denise is new to the Integra; she may misinterpret the (non-compliant) aftermarket upper adjustable rear links as "bushings". And, the only "camber plates" I'm aware of for this car are ones such as these, which are based on modified stock upper arms and are also non-compliant in IT.

However, anything that replaces just the bushings and makes no mods to the arms (except for spot welds) is compliant. There's a guy on RRAX, handle "chris", that makes a nice set of sphericals for the car. I'm running his stuff on the STL Integra, good quality and a decent price.

Denise, you need to come over to my house with a 6-pack and we'll walk you through the Integra chassis with it on the lift. I can give you a good overview of the car and point out what may be compliant and non-compliant in IT. Other good sources for this info is Tim Klvana and Geoff Branscombe.

Denise, Greg is correct. If it's easier, I can stop by upstate on my way to Saratoga Friday or on the way down to NYC on Sunday and go over the car as well. Mickey

Mickey and Greg,
Your input would be invaluable at this point!
We are getting roll cage work done right now and the car should be home next Sunday. After that we need to rework all suspension and then exhaust before April. The only car we have any knowledge on, and that was trial and error, is the escort which is all out the window now! We are trying to form a shopping list based on priority and financial responsibility.
That is why the questions are starting...
Where do you live Greg?
Denise

South of Hartford...

Looks like I should leave the Acura build advice to the experts - I ASSumed that the car had front struts, sorry guys. Yes, if double wishbone then camber plates are a no-no.
