Blackmage Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 what should i have my front alignment specs set at? Mostly street driven with one or two autox a year. Running MM CC plates.

wmfateam Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 How many miles do you drive this thing on the road? The toe out is tits for autocross turn in, but will eat yo tires like PacMan during street driving. For camber, I measured maxed out on the plates, and then slide the plate over for least amount, without flipping over the plates of course, and used the max out for the autocross course and then jacked up the car and slide the plate back over to drive the 30 miles home. Maxed out on the MM plates I was at 2.1 I believe, slide over I think it was about 1. I only had one set of tires at the time, so I didn't do any street driving with my settings. I bought some toe plates to do a quick alignment at the track and to check camber. http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/81680/10002/-1?CAWELAID=1710757887&CAGPSPN=pla&catargetid=230006180000848229&cadevice=c&gclid=CN-4oKD9-MQCFdBlfgodwW8AmAI also have this camber gauge.http://www.a1racing.com/Longacre78250.aspx?gclid=CLyivcT9-MQCFciIfgodeF0A3Q Any more questions on Autocross I would defer to Brett and the E-85 Torpedo Roush Cone Killer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CompOrangeSN95 Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Toe: 0Caster: as much as you can get with MM CC platescamber: -1.5 to -3 depending on if you're at auto-x or on the street Those are safe settings without knowing the rest of your suspension setup.

Blackmage Posted April 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 way more miles on the road than anything. It sees probably 5k a year now max on the roads. I dont really fancy changing up the alignment if i get to an autox event so something that i can have some fun on the backroads with, and i dont feel out of place when i autox it.

CompOrangeSN95 Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 Okay cool, cool. I'd recommend keeping your toe at 0, getting as close to -2 on the camber as you can, and max out the plates for caster. It'll feel good on the road and should give you a bit more bite at auto-x without getting really weird tread wear from daily driving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the toe at 0 give me any sort of loose feeling at speed, like if im going down the interstate at 75-80? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iRoush Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Keep in mind 0 toe will turn into toe out at speed. I'd go with a slight toe in if you don't want the tires to wear quicker but if you don't mind go zero toe. since it's a street car, stick with -2 degrees camber and +4 degrees caster. if you do not have a bumpsteer kit or you don't know how to cycle bumpsteer out, do NOT run more than +4 degrees as the car will have issues keeping the wheel straight as the suspension compresses.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideTech_Ryan Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 for what its worth here are our specs..5-1 Degree Neg camber3-5 Degrees positive caster if you can1/16 - 1/8 toe in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmage Posted May 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 thanks for the input guys. I did get my alignment done last week and went with these specs:0 - Toe+2 - Camber+3.9 - Caster (couldnt quite squeeze 4 out of the one side hah) Drives great down the road, from some minor spirited driving on a backroad it seemed tight as well. works for me.
