Concerns About Doing a Drop

Im planning on Going with H techs, I would get S techs but i am afraid of camber issues and the prices of camber plates are through the roof. Would i have camber problems with S techs? Are there other ways to correct the camber other than the camber plates? Someone has already told me that i wouldnt have to worry about camber issues with the H techs though, is this true? Does the Drop affect your car's alignment at all? Or am I being too worrysome ?

Im pretty shure that the answers to my questions are scattered and buried deep in the topics of this forum but i have a few concerns about getting a drop.

Any time you make changes to any car's suspension components, you should get the car alligned afterwards.

You are being worrysome. But so was I a bit. Just get the H-techs. You'll be happy. Unless you want to deal with the problems associated with the S-Techs. Also if you get the S-Techs be careful. There are fake ones out there being made. Go to the Tein site and read about it.
