Hey guys whats up I was wonder if anyone knows what the stock camber angle is on the 2002 ex sedan I would guess it is zero but some of the camber kits i found have the front degree starting at +1.5 so is this possibly the stock degree. Any help would be great thanks.

that +1.5 means if you got negative camber (which is usually the result of lowering rides), you can correct that negative camber back 1.5 so your tires are less likely to rub on the inside and shorten their lives.
i.e. i lowered my car and found out i got -1.2 camber on the rear, so i used my camber kit to correct that back to -.5 (which is within spec), so my tires are more like '|--|' then '/--\'

Yep. You can run it any way you want though, but you're going to be replacing tires more often the further away from 0 you get... Keep that in mind ;)

i think normal specs are anywhere from -1 to +1...

That would probably be safest. Naturally, for regular daily driving the closer to 0 the better
