Is there a major difference between these and Hardracing's camber kit? As far as quality & adjustments? I see they're a lot cheaper at $215 for a set.
The SPC are single piece milled aluminum. They look and feel very strong.

I’d like to see a hi res image of the hardrace to see if it is single piece and no welds.

Maybe it doesn’t make a difference, BUT if your looking for A DIFFERENCE no matter the reason there you go.

Painted is another difference. Update: the hard race is steel. So this must be a casted piece.

Personally I think the SPC will last longer and retain its unpainted look.

Update: the hard race is “high quality carbon steel”.

So there is another difference, and why it’s painted (steel).

Honda factory steel subframe on a daily driven MDX. Treated and painted.

I don’t daily drive my car, BUT here in PA I might get caught late or early spring with road salt.

If you daily drive your car, then your going to be battling rust.

So if you have a choice, why not skip the battle on that piece. Get aluminum?

hardrace are stamped steel that are welded together. similar to how oem parts are made. the hardrace paint is decent its much better then some of the other stuff out there.

i had all hardrace products on my old civic never had any issues with it with rusting,

On step 1, what does it mean exactly to install the brackets after doing alignment? Would the car throw an error code when starting up?
