Need help looking to get an alignment done

kennedy · 07-17-2008, 08:42 AM

I am looking to get an alignment done and want to get a performance alignment is what they refered to it as. I auto X and daily drive the car what are some of the specs you guys are using? Toe and Camber wise. I want the car to handle better but in the same respect I daily drive the car as of right now.

As much camber as you can get stock up front. 1/8th toe out, 1/16th toe in rear (probably don't need that for autox, mostly track). A little more caster. That's what works for me, YMMV, car setup is specific to tires, ride height, driving style, weight distribution and course. GL

Accept no substitute:

www.customalignment.com in Mountain View. That's where racers from the Bay Area, in general, go. Look online.

Stock I'm:

FD: -.9* camber .06 toe
FP: -.7* camber .06 toe
8.5* caster

RD: -1.8* camber -.04 toe
RP: -1.8* camber -.04 toe

That's as much negative front camber I could get.

dang nice setup toe/caster wise though. can you use crash-bolts or anything like that (legally in a stock class) on the Z? I gotta admit "stock class" has never meant squat to me yet I'm curious now
