^ Pretty much what W2K said.

Camber kits are needed because the aftermarket suspension is much different in construction versus the OEM stuff. Thus it changes your suspension geometry (ie, where the camber arms sit etc). Adjustable camber arms will allow you to get back to stock, or go more aggressive, if for example, you need to give your wheels more camber to clear your fenders. You can see from most canned 8th gens, they run pretty aggressive rear camber to get them to fit.

The HFP kit gets really good reviews and based on bang for the buck. If you're looking at the HFP kit, you'll probably want to get the SI sedan kit since the curb weights are a lot closer than the CSX to non-SI Civic. The downside is the drop isn't really noticeable. Upside is that you won't need camber kits since it's a 1" drop with OEM type components.
