So after talking to S~Factor and being convinced that "Euro-Tire" even though they are assholes are the assholes who can fix my s2k. He was right. They fixed it. Below are the results of the alignment.

Before ========================= After

Left Front ======================= Left Front
camber -.018 ==================== -0.68
caster 5.46 ==================== 5.84
toe 0.02 ==================== 0.00



Right Front ======================Right Front
camber -0.43 ==================== -0.45
caster 5.22 ====================== 5.76
toe 0.01 ======================== 0.00

Before===========================After

Front
Cross Camber 0.25 ================= -0.23
Cross Caster 0.23 ================== 0.08
Total Toe 0.03 ==================== 0.00
Set Back 0.07 ===================== 0.16


Before =========================== After
Left Rear ========================= left rear
Camber -1.33 ====================== -1.70
Toe 0.23 ========================== 0.14

Before =============================After
Right Rear
Camber -1.84 ======================= -1.47
Toe 1.13 ====================== 0.14

REAR
total toe before 1.36 ======================= 0.28
Thrust Angle before -0.45 =================== 0.00


I know it's a little sloppy, but that's the best that i can do. Check out my right rear toe "before" it was nasty. The s2k would get sideways on every little bump

hey do you need to setup an appointment if u need to go to euro tire on a sat? If so how far in advance (talkin like weeks or a month)? I know its a popular place so i dunno if they get backed up as far as saturdays goes. Thanks

I'm glad this is taken care of and out of the way, Luis. Now let's start modding!

Dale - you have to make an appointment reguardless (weekday or weekend) Saturday's are insane over there and you'll must likely have to wait a week or two. Tuesday's they are there till 7pm. I made my @ 6pm, but got there around 5:45. it took them about an hour to get the alignment all configed.

S-factor -> in due time my friend

not to be a jerk, but thats not an alignment at all... thats still terrible... why were the numbers so off in the beginning? honestly you have to take it somewheres else. theres no reason the camber should be that off still...

What do you mean? How bad is it?
Specified Ranges for the front are as followed
-0.67 / -0.33

Rears

-1.67 / -1.33

I did notice that the left side (both fronts and rears) are out of of this range. :-X argh! The car drives good. There is a slight pull to the right though, but it doesn't bother me

-About the numbers being off. I dunno? I only hit the rear right side hard enough to warrant an alignment. I swapped out the LCA and the handling on the S just got worse. I took it to Euro-Tire and told them what happend and to just fix it. I drive my S2K hard. The guy at euro tire told me that potholes as well as speed bumps are what knock the car out of alignment. basically they do the most damage and I have to say that i've taking some pretty hard hits in my S. Bergen County roads suck!
