Front toe zero
Front Camber 2.1 degrees negative
Front Caster 5.5 Degrees
Rear toe 1/8 in
Rear Camber 2.0 degrees negative.

Can be a bit squirrelly on odd pavement.

I ran it with 1/8 out on the front for a while, scared my wife to death, os I backed off a bit.

Oh I run "R" rubber think BFG Rivals, RE-71-R etc... Even with these setting tread wear is pretty good. Rocks into the top of the fenders not good (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) You can glue in material to help with the issue. I would like to run a set of fender liners, but would need to make custom ones due to the flares.

You know this is a really nice modified 914. Your work looks top notch. Sounds killer as well. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

3 days at alignment with specifics provided and this is what I get back.
Any ideas on the passenger rear? The toe in was the most they could get.

Confirm that the rear tires are centered on the chassis. I had the PorSTI aligned at a "hot rod" shop that did not understand the suspension and had the rear shifted to one side with similar results.

After much fussing a quick measurement from the wheels to the chassis revealed the (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif)

Did you reuse the cables from the cold water kit or did you get new ones?
