got aligned

Front (L/R)
Camber: -3.1°/-3.8°
Caster: 4.1°/3.6°
Toe: 0.03°/0.03°

Rear (L/R)
Camber: -2.4°/-2.9°
Toe: 0.17°/0.14°

I think the front camber/caster differences is because different heights. Caster isn't adjustable, and camber is maxed negative. I told them not to worry about camber because I need to get smaller tires up there to stop the rubbing (195/45-16 to replace the 205/45-16). I may also switch to 215/40-16 in the rear so the sidewall doesn't look as stupid big.

Or I'll just buy 17's.

Just factory specs for now. I mainly just wanted to fix the fucked up toe issues. I was at 1.3° out in the front and 0.26° out in the rear before. Because the front, it was pretty scary to drive on the highway. Now, not so bad, but I do want to get the Moonface RCA's for the car to minimize bumpsteer and junk.

Replaced my CV boot. I'm pretty sure a chunk of asphalt is what ripped it (found it on the under tray)

Took it for a drive, feels SOOOOOOO much better than an '08 Corolla.

Sell yourself on the corner for a few days to make the money. No one will have to know about it.

I made my exhaust yesterday. I did it all besides the welding (I don't trust my TIG skills yet).

The muffler is a stainless Magnaflow 12265. I used full stainless 2.5" piping and a Vibrant Performance 2.5" V-Band flange. I still need to figure out tips. Probably just going to go with 3" ones with burnt edges.

Tone is deep and pretty quiet at idle and in 5th with minimal throttle. It opens up when you get on it, but it does not sound 'ricey' like a fart can Civic or something.
