The shock settings are all backwards----"9" is the softest, and "1" is the firmest. I'm at 8 front, 6 rear.

To be honest man he pretty much came back and said that there were no values so he was just going to manually calculate camber for me. This guy was real good, and he was into cars so he took his time. I was literally there for 2 hours while he adjusted and measured

The car is perfect now. I'm now attacking corners again just like when I was in.....my old front-driver. Yes folks my lowered 8 feels more like a lowered front driver than it did when stock. And thats a GOOD thing apparently. The Dunlop 2050s appear to be holding up but I'd still like to get rid of the front camber.

Here, I'll use "the bucket" instead..

Got a chance to really throw the car around on the backroads of upstate NY and the rear end feels great now with only a little residual softness that I attribute to the stock Dunlops. I can certainly feel the camber up front---its double what it should be, I'd like to tone it down, but another member running the same camber I have now--1.4 F, 1.8R at least said there is no uneven tire wear.
