I believe anytime you lower your car you want to get a camber kit. I lowered my G/F car and it has a lot of camber now, but I kinda like the look and it handles great. We will get one, but before we get an alighnment. It pulls to the left a bit:( , but that is expected.

get an aligment after the install and get your camber reading. then decide tfrom there if it is worth getting a kit. Steve had that same setup and his didn't drop the 1.5 as advertised. 1-1.5 usually doesn't require a camber kit.
