s13 Will D2 camber plates for RS-R/AGX work?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

I had crazy difficulties installing the camber plates ordered off of ebay.
Will this setup even match?
BTW, how do you use the spacers provided? How do they go on?

I don't think camber plates work for McPherson Strut designs (shock/spring setup) for the front. I believe what you need is camber bolts (its what I have). When I was close to buying some camber plates for the front, the vendor told me it wouldn't work, only with a full coil-over system.

Wrong (depending on manufacturer) they work just fine. The spacer goes between the black "key" that sits directly on top of the upper spring mount and the camber plate.

Installation is as follows...




I have Tein Camber Plates w/ Tein springs and AGX struts. Let me know if you have any questions.

some plates will only work with their respective coilover, but most will work with spring/shocks, provided that you use a spacer.
