Why does everyone fail to post the units for toe? He is probably running .4 degree's which is about .17"

Youre absolutely correct, it is degrees. Derp.

Got an autocross event next week, I may try a stiffer FWB setting (depending on the course layout.)
new location at an old dog track, hopefully the surface is not beat up.

there is tearing in the caster compliance bushings. Im dreading the repairs.
Ill have to order bushings from Ballade and do the repairs when the semester is over in december.
got to love a 10 year old car!

Well dang, I just realized your in Central Florida. We've got a pretty active group of track/autocross guys that are really fast and quite knowledgeable.

Shoot me a PM with the events you plan on attending for the rest of the year and I'll see if I can make it out to one.

Compliance bushings arent bad.. As long as they arent seized up. I just did mine a month or two ago.

Viper, im on the west side. Tampabay region, I race with F.A.S.T.

I've been around FL with my other car a long time ago. I may be out for the rest of the year but ill remember to hit you up.

AE, thanks for the encouragement. I'm not stranger to tearing down cars, just short on time these days.

Hopefully this fixes the caster eccentric bolt issue.

First event of the year and I already feel the tire grip dropping. They have been wearing even but the outer edge of the front tires are getting low.

I might just buy tires before these get completely worn down.
