Totally!

Thanks Brother.. Just learned that much more. Appreciate it big time. About the hit the garage again to clock things properly.

What approach should I take? Should I jack up the car on all 4 jack stands? OR one side at a time? To clock I would need to jack from under the LCA until it lifts off the jack stand and then tighten all down to spec right??

You can do it with the car on the ground if you're slim and have an impact for the lower bolts.

Or ask your alignment guy .

Or yes use 4 jack stands at a time and jack up on each LCA. If you're using that method:

Measure your wheel centre to fender arch height before lifting up the car.

Then lift/jackstand the car.

That way, you know how much to jack up the LCA.

Photos help. I know its not a S2000...but...

Make a little mark on the hub/fender with tape to help measure to/from the same spot.

I cant thank you enough for the tips. Finished yesterday in about a couple hours. Yes it would have been easier having done it the first time, but thats how ya learn sometimes! I cant imagine how many people skip this step... Or maybe just me haha.
Thanks for the Lesson on proper clocking procedure. Off to finalize the alignment now.
