Default Alignment results

Does this look right:

Left Front______________________________Right Front
Actual___Before___Range_______________Actual___Bef ore
-0.1 _____ -0.2 ___-1.2 ... 0.8 __Camber __ -0.7 ___ -0.7
0.6 ______ 0.6 ___ 0.2 ... 2.2 ___Caster ___ 0.5 ____ 0.5
-0.01 ____ 0.09 __ -0.04 .. 0.04 __Toe ____ 0.00 ___ 0.08

The rear was all in spec and left alone.
Toe was the only thing adjusted in the front.
Reasons I am asking are (1) I'm at work and my Helms is at home, and (2) the top of the printout says "Acura : Integra : 1994-2001: except Type R".
How different are the ITR settings from the rest?

I have been experiencing a "shimmy" or wobble effect whenever I do things like, change lanes, or go from a curve going left to a curve going right, seems like whenever the wheels cross over the center line the car feels unsteady...
I only drove about 10 miles after the alignment but the wobble seems to be gone!

Edit: Boy is it hard to make a chart with the extra spaces being ignored...that is an option that should be removed.

I find it amusing how you were able to whip up a script to find the elusive answer to "How Many Type-Rs were shipped to the US" but can't line up HTML text. hehe

Here's what it says in the Helms
Front Toe: 0 <U>+</U> 1/16 in
Rear Toe: 1/16 in <U>+</U> 1/16 in

The only measurement that is specific to the Type-R is Camber Angle. The measurements they give in the book for Toe is in mm and inches. The measurements displayed on the alignment tool I believe is in degrees. I've read extensively on this subject and somewhere on this forum is the formula of converting between the different units.

Strangely, I find that amusing too...lol
I avoid HTML (or really, *ML) like the plague.
Next time I'll just scan the damn chart in and link to the pic

Thanks for the info!
I did forget to mention that was all in degrees....
