Anyone interested in painting their calipers? I've got a new box of red G2 caliper paint I need get rid of.

Finally got a decent alignment, -1.5 camber all around and just enough toe in to keep it stable. Handles so much better now that I'm not sliding all over the place.
Now, if I could just get the sway bar to stop knocking. Sent from...somewhere? |

I've always wondered what toe setting would work best for stability and still maintain fairly good tire wear. What did you have yours dialed in at?

I didn't ask for numbers, I just told them to get the camber set and match everything around it. The factory spec is for straight line stability, so I'd aim for something near that (0.2 toe in, I THINK).

So it seems I have a little problem. I installed my replacement JDL UEL header this weekend so I now have the JDL header, over and catted front pipe with the Agency Power catback. I started my car this morning and I accomplished the below:
1. Poppped the ear drum in my left ear 2. Shook my house loose from its foundation d. Woke up everyone within a city block I'm not exactly sure what my next step should be. Either live with it, replace it with a resonated catback or go back to stock catback. I will admit, it is a little fun to set off car alarms. Feel like I should drive through the parking garage at Fashion Square constantly blipping the throttle. |

In reality, you'd probably have to add another resonator to the factory catback in order to avoid the symptoms you are exhibiting. Sent from...somewhere? |

Put a resonator in the Mid Pipe or right after it, that should help. I have the Agency Power Header, 2.5 Over Pipe, Midpipe with S2000 Resonator I had laying around and the Isis Catback. Its actually quite tame until you get on it surprisingly enough.
