Well... my frame is tweaked most likely. The shop went to do the alignment and could not get toe or camber to UK spec. The rear camber on one side would not go past -2.6 (so more positive) and the toe was all effed up. The other side could get -2 camber as well as the correct toe. the subframe is perfectly lined up with the frame (this is the new.. used...ap2 subframe and arms/knuckles i got)
I will be purchasing SPC joints for the rear in the next couple of weeks. This means there will be no tracking for me this summer... no HPDEs what so ever.
this summer is turning out to be a total :fail: with the S. i think i shouldn't go to the dragon now.

car will not like the dragon with -2.6 camber in the rear... i think i'll probably die on the dragon, even if i take it very easy...
this is my first time to the dragon.. do not want a very twitchy rear end.. i'll still go.. i need a vacation.. i just may not go on half of the drives that i wanted to and i'll probably just chill at Fontana

I'm much happier than what i was previously. the car is good. specs:
Front:
Castor____L________R
_________6.1_____6.06
Camber
_______-1.03____-1.01
Toe
________-.02_____-.01
Rear:
Camber:___L________R
________-2.19___ -2.21
Toe
_________.41______.38
A month or so after the dragon (i need to pay off my CC right now) i'll get SPC joints in the rear so i can get better tire wear.
