Need help with suspension - Page 5 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Ok, heres the conclusion. My car is now fixed and running like a champ. I love it. Took it to the canyons for a drive, 45 minutes each way. Car handles well, i pushed the car but not to the point where my tires were screeching. And i can honestly say, its fixed. As for the flca from buddyclub, it rides very smooth as oem. The only difference i really feel is the front is alittle tighter, which is a good thing. But yeah that concludes this episode. Thank you all for your opinions and help. Oh btw guys, for occasional track and canyon runs, if the alignment is off by a hair. Say, .01 its not gonna kill you.

"by a hair", yes, i'd be ok with camber differing by 0.3dg and toe by 0.03dg.
Not so by OE alignment, still "green" with allowed (relatively) enormous differences (camber +/- 0.75deg, toe +/0.24deg), which includes both noticeable toe-in or toe-out front, and very uneven right/left differences, at extremes certainly handling like crap, and not even tracking straight.
