I will call an NTB store and find out whether they translate 6mm toe-in as 0.12

On the way to work, I stopped by an NTB store.
Their Computer does not have S2000 data yet.
However, we looked at a 1995-1999 Chevy Truck/Tahoe 4x4 settings. Using the metric display, the individual toe setting is 3mm then using the degree display the number is 0.24

Frank,

I did get a response from Kent on this subject just today (he did not have the information immediately available). It appears from this that your alignment may be right and mine lacking toe. We will know more when he gets a response from Hunter.

Chris:

I found my chart but it converts minutes to degrees. I hand wrote that 1mm = 6
minutes or .0996 degrees. This chart is for the NSX rear that was a 16 inch
wheel, I don't have the diameter of the tire.

I think that would be close for the S2000 front:
1MM=6 minutes=.0996deg.

S2000 rear:
6MM =36 minutes=.598 deg.

I emailed Hunter to get more info, Stay tuned.

Kent

OK, I think I understand the deal here.
The linear dimension is over the face of the tire so it will differ slightly depending on what tire size the car or truck has on the Hunter data.
So in the 1995-1999 Chevy Truck/Tahoe 4x4 settings that asin had, the conversion was 3mm = 0.24
