yes the alignment

Wanted too know if I need too get any other adj control arms or if I need too do any slotting too the rear sub frame so I can get the propper camber because the car will sit lower with coil overs.

what is the meaning of 'proper camber'

most people dont run 0 camber
so you need to give more info
what do you want to do with your car?
how much camber do you want to run?
tracked? daily driven only?
poser?

then just ste it to stock camber
www.pdm-racing.com
sells camber kits and such
dont get complicated with camber and toe setups
go back to stock. if your jsut daily driving, there's no reason for a special type setup

slight camber is ok, but you probably wont need or want more then -1 degree

depends what you are doing
you dont need tension rods if you are just daily driving
stick w/ stock or replace bushings
you MIGHT need RUCAS if your car is so low and cabmer cant be brought back to stock

just dont buy that crap that's avaiblle on ebay..thsoe generic brands. poorly made and use crumby materials
