Default Camber adjusting

I don't know if I mentioned it before but I autocross my Tiburon. I have the new season starting in March and really need to address the understeer issue of the stock suspension/alignment setup.

The first issues to address are:
1) alignment
2) rear spring rate (too soft)
3) rear roll rate (too soft)

To address issue 1 I need to adjust the camber (front and rear) and toe. Reading thru a search of the forum I came across several brands of camber adjusting bolts (Eibach and Moog).

Has anyone used these products? How is the install? Is one better than the other?

The rear suspension will have to be addressed later in the season, but I'd like to get the alignment taken care of soon. (Like within a month)

ingalls also makes camber bolts for the tibby.

They are all just bolts, and have the same ease of install. If I'm not mistaken, the ingalls kit claims a higher degree of camber adjustability vs the Eibach.

A whiteline rear adjustable sway bar will help you fine tune the back end.

For springs, you've got a whole slew of choices/options.

Ingalls price out at 18 per corner plus shipping for 1 degree of adjust. 35 per corner + for 2 degrees.

Eibach 1 degree of adjust is $25 +shipping thru tirerack for front (both sides). (Same for rear)

I wasn't able to find info on the Moog Chassis website for tiburon's. I'll have to email them.
