there warranty allows for you to just go in and change it when you feel like it? or when something happens causing the alignment to get out of whack?

 

Ok. just change the toe setting on a tierod and bring it back. tell em you hit a pothole.

 

Odd, on my AP1, the UK alignment *increased* understeer. As a rule, more rear negative camber = more understeer. You'll have a bigger cotact patch on the outside rear when cornering, meaning increased rear grip = more understeer. I've got the UK alignment, the Comptech adj FSB on full-stiff, Kumho 710s - 265/45-16s on the rear 225/50-16s on the front, and I think the back end is still too twitchy. I average about 1 spin every 10 runs or so - I think I spin more than anyone else out there, though. It's only twitchy when autocrossing though - on the street, it's an understeering pig. That's entirely a powerband issue - even aggressive street driving has me cornering at least 2000-3000 rpm lower than at an autocross. I fought massive understeer for an event or 2 after installing the FSB, but I made a correction to my driving style. Understeer is the car's way of saying you're trying to go too fast in a slow corner. Brake harder/earlier, and get on the gas before the apex cone. Soon, you'll be spinning that S, too!

 

Perfect. I was going to suggest this too.

I got the three year alignment on my TT, which they said is transferrable to another car. I did not see how I could go wrong with cars that have adjustable suspensions and doing track events with different wheel/tire setups.

 

I asked, and they said if I wanted to just come in and change it that it would be ok. Obviously I shouldn't abuse it, but once a month shouldn't be an issue.

 

the AP2 is a little softer in the rear and a whole lot less twitchy.... I was deffinately plowing through a couple of the turns last weekend. That could be because I've only owned the car for two months!

At any rate, it was my impression that more grip in the rear (neg. camber) would induce oversteer. I'm running -2 now, and that's pretty agressive. If this isn't the case, then the 0

 

S2000s are sort of notorious for not holding alignment overall, and during shipping in particular.
