Im not sure if i would agree with mach V's good reviews - i found them to be a pain in the ass, attempting to charge me for something that should be warrantied. I did not pay as I came there for an realignment

It seems like the toe goes out under compression of the front suspension only. Does the .3 difference in camber between Passenger and Driver front make a huge difference?

Thank you everyone for yalls input. This has been an issue for about a year now... Haven't been able to truly drive the car
Don't go back there then. Any performance shop that tells you an alignment is good enough because it's "in spec" doesn't know what they're doing (IMO).

Find another shop, first question is if they'll align to your specs, second is if you can sit in the drivers seat while they do it. If they answer no to either, find someone else.

As for the difference 0.3* makes, it's not a huge deal on a street car... but I would bet that something slipped and it's no longer aligned like what the sheet shows. With the camber plate maxed out you should have well over 2* of camber.
