im going to be going to Harris Hill Road in San Marcos, Texas this Saturday and i heard from a friend that i could get the CR alignment on my 2003 ap1. i have never heard about this on a ap1 and i wanted to know if anyone out there knows if that a good thing or a bad thing. i know that the suspension is stiffer but i want to know if it will benefit me at the track?

 

Is there a difference in the CR alignment from a Euro alignment? The Euro alignment has suited me well, though I think a little more negative camber would help.

Alignments are all pretty personal. I think the Euro alignment is a good starting point.

I'm sure what they meant to say was the European spec. alignment.

 

where can i get the setting so i can get it done!

 

I think the CR alignment is a little more agressive than the euro spec.

 

Euro Spec should be

Front:
Caster = 6.75 to 6.8
Camber = -1.0
Toe = 0

Rear:
Camber = -2.0
Toe = .33

 

Here's the UK alignment. FWIW, I run way more camber than the UK alignment and I've maxed out my caster.

UK:
Front
Caster Left = 6.75°
Caster Right = 6.75°
Camber Left = -1°
Camber Right = -1°
Toe Left = 0°
Toe Right = 0°
Total Toe = 0°

Rear
Camber Left = -2°
Camber Right = -2°
Toe Left = +0.16°
Toe Right = +0.16°
Total Toe = +0.32°

 

^Thanks for breaking out the Toe. I forgot to do that

 

UK alignment is nowhere near aggressive enough for optimal autocross setup.

 

You may be right Joseph, but I think he said he was taking his car to an actual track.
