Gunna go have the alignment done with TRZ's specs. Would be interesting to see if I pick up any MPH....will post up if there are any improvements....

Cool, would definetly be interesting to know.

equal caster, equal camber, set toe with front end elevated slightly. reason for the equal camber and caster is because a split in your specs is set up for crown of the road. just mind the bumpsteer toe change, i set my fathers at 1/32 in due to the massive change in toe between compressed and extended suspension.
i work at an alignment shop, and i do racecars all year round. having a meatsack in the car helps too, but under acceleration it will make no difference.

im saying that the caster and camber be equal from side to side, because there is no crown in the road to adjust for. try it .

I had my alignment guy use TRZ's specs, but the best I could get in camber was 4.2, but that was with stock A-arms.

I believe you meant caster. 4 degrees positive is all these cars can do from factory. You probably wont notice much in mph, but you'll feel it at the top end, it'll be much smoother.
