ANY shop, I repeat, ANY shop that says the stock parts have to be put back on, is totally incompetent, for any high performance work. Go elsewhere!
Having said that, the Sportlines absolutely SLAM the car, and use up most of the suspension travel, and at the same time, most likely used up all of the camber adjustment that the K-member has in its original state.
Therefore, in order to get more adjustment, to allow for the amount of negative camber the Sportlines create, you have to use a hand grinder and CAREFULLY elongate the slots in the K-member, to allow for more positive camber to adjusted in the car.
