k, my bad smitty. our cars do not camber much, if any. im maxxed out negative. you can see it, but its not much.
tip of advice, make sure you line up your coilovers good from the get go. because when you try to install the swaybar endlinks, they become a PITA. theyll either unwind themselves, or unwind the coilover(changing the height), or snap the swapbar endlinks. having the coilovers at uneven heights or having the swaybar endlinks at different heights puts a lot of tension on the opposing swaybar endlink, thus changing or damaging so many other parts.
goodluck

chaos, the thickness of the threaded part of the coilover is about 2". whereas the stock struts are about 1.25". more than likely, you will not be able to fit 9.5" in the rear without major suspension modifying. im actually in this process right now with my brothers vcv10/ksports. it can be done, but not easily.

like i said to someone, its not hard, but its definetly not easy. all that is required are spring compressors, torque wrench, ratchet sets, and a breaker bar, jacks and stands. nothing really, most people who work on cars mediocrely(sp?) should have those tools.
