But then again it is an AWD car trapping @ 136 ....


Think he does it himself.

Yea, think the fuel system is maxed out, just has one 255 in it now.
Last Friday boost was spiking to about 35 psi and it seemed the pump was unable to keep up.
I mean the last run was an 11.1 @ 123 with him letting out at the 1000 foot mark due to breaking up. Compare that with it normally trapping around 135 ish and it's def a mid 10 second car.

What tires do you have and are they balanced, even tread on ALL tires? Something doesn't look right if your rear camber is -1.5 then -2.8 on the other side. Have you checked the bushings to make sure they are OK enough to where it's not causing your "wander" problem. When you feel this wandering, is the street a fresh paved style asphalt, concrete with a bunch of slits/cracks/uneven style? I think you need to have someone else align it because there's something you're missing or have someone very experienced who knows how a car should feel, especially with this "wander" you keep you're having.

I've recently had about 3 alignments since I kept changing my suspension parts and replacing bushings/steering rack etc...And had 0 problems with alignment, car drives very straight and handles well.

Here's one of my alignment spec sheets from years ago when I was lowered on Tokico Blue shocks with Skunk2 coil over sleeves. Notice how close my specs are and one of your rear sides are WAY OFF. Another note for people who wear out tires fast, notice my front toe before alignment and after. You get TOE wear on your inside tires when lowering and not getting an alignment, not really negative camber wear because the car oem specs have negative camber already!

I think you typed that wrong, fixed it for ya.

Matty didn't mean he was running too much camber, he meant it wasn't even from side to side. If the difference from side to side is off by that much then you've got something wrong with the car or you are just inept at making the necessary adjustments.

Yeah, that's exactly what I meant Colin.

I need to stop coming on forums, I keep wanting to buy stuff and lower my car when I see other cars now. If I didn't want my alignment out of spec I'd lower my car a bit more. Santa Barbara's roads are pretty nice and makes me feel really high, but soon as I go back to Los Angeles I retract my idea of lowering it soon as I have to enter my driveway at home. Redgardless, soon as I get my next set of tires I'm lowering it a lot more and getting a real balanced alignment by West End.

im in the process of changing bushings the streets here where i live are absolutly horrible lol except on the highway my wander isnt dramatic it minimal but it just annoys me also i found out today the alignment machine needed to be calibrated the spec numbers when doing the alignment would wander back and forth so i never got a for sure reading also the plates on the alignment lift needed to be greased it they didnt move like it was supposed to and as far as my rear camber i dont have adjustments for it yet thats on the way next week but bushings and steering rack are number one on the list

Sounds like you answered your own question.

1) "Front LCA's are barely a year old." Well, then looks like they don't need to be replaced, right?
2) "Outer tie rods are new." Well, these aren't bushings, but they're new, so they don't need to be replaced.
3) "Inners aren't." Again, not bushings, but if they're not new and your car is 20yrs old... probably a good idea to replace these. But unless they are bad, they don't NEED to be replaced.
4) "Upper control arms are about 2yrs old" That's pretty new, so as long as they're a quality part, the bushings are probably fine. Same goes for the ball joint.
5) "You wanna change rear trailing arm bushings, rear LCA bushings, and front and rear sway bar bushings" (edited HEAVILY for grammar and punctuation) Well, those sure sound like the bushings you should replace since they haven't been.

In general when it comes to all of these parts we're talking about, you do them all at once. It's much easier that way and will require one alignment instead of multiple. Either way, doesn't sound like you've already replaced about half or more of what needs to be done, so you're almost there.

Did you guys see password jdm is no making window visors for a DA...? so now no rediculous prices and the pain for trying to find a pair..

they also started making spoon cf mirrors and rear window visors for a DA.. all they need to do is start making oem quality hood bras and the rare DA parts will be utterly available.

I'm pretty sure people saw it when you posted it the first time on the previous page... That stuff isn't anything new. There's already been someone making window visors, albeit in carbon, and Inline4 has been selling mirrors as well.

Two reasons, you can't read and you're beating your chest over PJDMs over priced products.
Learn some tact.

Maybe because you're a jackass. Also, do you realize that if they start making all these aftermarket "uber rare" parts, they're not rare any more? And this last thing is a pet peeve of mine. When you're going to try to make a comment to call someone out, like what you tried to do above, please please please use correct grammar. You instantly lose all credibility when you spell things incorrectly, don't know when to use "there" and "their," and end every sentence with "...".

Password gay dm sucks and they are way overpriced... the end.

Everyone has their own opinion and aren't going to like everything that everybody likes. For some people it's cool that pwjdm is making copies of parts and slapping their name all over it. I personally don't like it at all because now the "rare parts" that you don't see to often (which made it cool) are now gonna have carbon of fiberglass knock off parts on every fanboys car. I don't even know why they are called password jdm because they sell knockoff parts and rota wheels that are listed as jdm wheels

You think that they will be cheap coming from pwjdm??? lol, they sell a battery box for a relocation kit for $160 and the same box cost $38 plus shipping anywhere else. I really don't care what wheels people buy for their own cars, it's not my car or money... i just hate that pwjdm is selling rotas and listing them as jdm wheels.
