Default Camber...

I have RSR Ti 2000 lowering springs and the aligment shop that did the aligment said the rear camber is maxed out and they could not get it to factory specs. They said factory specs are 1.3 - 1.7 and mine are at 2.0. Has anyone els had this problem? I though the S2000 did not need a camber kit. Also they never mentioned anything about the front camber but I have a feeling that it could be off as well.

you can adjust the S's camber. Not much, but you can. you lower the car, the wheels will squat out. expect more tire wear

-2.0 deg camber in the rear is perfect for a performance alignment. Just make sure your rear toe settings are in spec. Too much toe is what really causes premature tire wear, not camber.

I have my STOCK S2000 aligned to -1.7 deg front and -2.0 deg rear negative camber.

Here are some recommended setting for a performance alignment from the S2ki AutoX FAQ:

* Front toe - 0" to 1/8" toe out
* Front camber - -1.5 to -1.75 degrees

* Rear toe - 1/4" to 3/8" toe in
* Rear camber - -2.0 to -2.25 degrees
