    Some pictures comparison pics, sorry about the crap quality. These were taken many moons ago. I think some 3 or 4 years ago, before cameras got good and cheap, and before i knew what a good picture was.

    Like mrshin says, there a aren't great upgrade, but for 170 bucks all up, still much better than the oem solids.

    Only recently have i fitted camber plates to try and fix the camber issue, haven't taken it to be aligned yet, tho it's definately neg now, rather than zeroish that it was before.

    Honda calipers have a 140mm bolt spacing, but the caliper i got off a 89 legend only gives you space for a 23xmm disc. Back to the drawing board, aka pick a part.

    i also did the RA60 coversion, fitted camber plates to remove the positve camber and was probably about 1-1.5deg neg after that so that was good, however i had a problem where my whiteline front sway bar would hit th ra60 struts at the base. Ended up living with it but longer control arms would have solved it (and given more neg camber).
    There was a definate braking performance increase doing this upgrade as the stock solid brakes are damn crap!
