Default rear toe

i have a 91 civic with rear trailing arms etc for disc brakes from a da integra. i just got an allignment and they said they need more adjustment.

i still have to much toe out.

i have a camber kit and the rear is set to .2 degrees.

i asked him to but it at 1.5

if he changes it to the 1.5 will it make it make my toe better.

if not.....what the hell should i do. get the toe adjuster?

over all it is about -1.21 degrees out total. Each wheel is out so i know there is a small posibility of them both being bent.

Camber and Toe are NOT related.

Which lower control arm did you use? I would suggest that it may be that the Integra one is too long... I have not done this swap in a long time, I wish I could remember more...

Anyone else?

They ARE related. Who told you that that? it is not true. when you lower a car and the camber decreases( negative camber) the toe out increases,

and just get some toe adjusters , I have them you can dial the toe in much easier and they can compensate by getting shorter or longer than stock
