Default Alignment Tips Needed...

Hey Fellas this might be the wrong forum but I'm going in for an Alignment tomorrow and would like some tips on what to get it set at....

Set up includes.....

92 EH2
Tein SS Coils
Modded Upper strut mounts
Progress Front Camber kit
SRR LCA's
SRR Toe Kit
SRR Camber kit
Progress 22mm Rear sway bar
99-00 Si front Strut bar
ITR rear Strut bar
DIY truck bar

Car is dropped pretty low.....I have a Mugen front lip and it has like 4.5 in clearance fron the front....no gap in the rear the front tucks a hair......

What should I get it all set to??? thanks fellas...I'd really appreciate it!!

have you tried a search yet? don't forget the archived items either.

another thing that will help further your cause would be to provide us with more information. the most important being what kind of racing you are going to participate in. if this is for the street, any old fool can give you something that will work.

You might consider setting the ride height to the SCCA legal 5" as measured from the ground to the lowest point on the rocker panels. Then get it aligned to stock spec to start with.

hey wait, i thought it was 5.5"? or do people just set their cars at 5.5" so they have some "padding" on the safe side of things?

Personally I am at 5.5" only because I use the jacking pads as my reference points. The 5.5" is based on the fact that the jack points are lowe than the rocker points.
