K-Tuned Front LCA camber kit experience/Review
What’s going on all, so my driver side caster bolt is seized looking at either replacing with OEM or going k-tuned camber kit. Any body have any experience with quality performance of their LCA ? By no means am I looking To achieve crazy amounts of camber maybe -3 to -4.

If your driver's side caster bolt is seized the K-tuned kit isn't going to fix your problem. You're going to need to get that bushing pressed out and replaced (both sides since you can't buy OEM compliance bushings), or get a used/new lower control arm.

Thanks James ! It looks like I’m getting 2 new control arms ! Would you be able to shed some light on aftermarket bushings such as are they worth it? Are they better than stock bushings? I figure I can replace them on the new lca’s while their out if it’s worth it. Mostly street and spirited mountain runs thanks man!

Mugen compliance bushings are available.
Theoretically won't last as long as the original because they're a stiffer rubber.
But...only about 10% stiffer. Plus...Mugen is so closely attached to Honda that their parts often mirror Honda specs and quality. Its almost like an AMG/Mercedes type deal.
I run Mugen compliance bushings on my factory arms.
Make sure you put some anti seize on the bolts when putting them back in. Be careful not to torque them past spec (especially if using antisieze).
Hardrace is another decent bushing option. Hell no they're not OEM quality...but they work quite well.
Remember to clock the bushings or you'll tear them when you put the car down.

I have Spoon compliance bushings (had to go through the seized bolt ordeal last winter) and the car feels exactly like it did with the OEM bushing. Mugen should be of identical quality as well. No need to spend all that money on brand new OEM arms
