Can you post a pic that shows the entire sheet?

Hardrock, for a street car that looks like a good place to be if the bushings have been upgraded.

If you want to be a bit more aggressive, adding a bit more camber front and rear will help.

Rob, I am reading this on my phone and it looks like the rear is toe OUT. Is that what you see?

Rob@WretchedMS · 03-26-2015, 02:08 PM

No, the rear toe is positive toe in at +.05 each wheel, total toe in is +.10
it's in the top portion, the bottom is what you see, not sure what that is since that is cut off, but it looks like it's SAI or something

Rob@WretchedMS · 03-26-2015, 02:16 PM

Primary Angles
Front
Camber L -1.2 - R -1.2
Caster Not Checked
Toe L +.05 - R +.05
Total Toe +.10

Rear
Camber L -.07 - R -.06
Toe L +.05 - R +.05
Total Toe +.10
Thrust Angle 0.0

Secondary Angles is the bottom half, not sure what those that have readings are.

Norm Peterson · 03-26-2015, 02:22 PM

The readings that show toe out were the initial readings.

It seems at 100 under boost it gets a little loose? Maybe it's just the power, also the tires are different summer up front all season in the back.

Norm Peterson · 03-26-2015, 04:29 PM

Only a little loose?

Norm

JusticePete · 03-26-2015, 04:42 PM

Rear should be Toe IN 0.12 per side.

Is it a huge difference then .05 ?

JusticePete · 03-26-2015, 04:53 PM

That rear toe out will make you car looser, the faster you go. Get it changed to my in spec.

CamaroSS sleeper · 03-26-2015, 06:39 PM

Yup,

like JusticePete said, Toe "IN" -0.XX
your current alignment is 0.05 "OUT" and yes this will make the car feel like its on ice under power or when you switch lanes on the FWY "Tremline" I think some people use this term to describe the feeling.

My experience with this was rubber bushings would not hold my alignment settings at -.01 under WOT. making the car extremely unpredictable specially at FWY speeds.
I was making 600ish at the time.

so get the car aligned to -.XX and go!
