    my car finally gets aligned....

    ran my 90 all season w/ new suspension never having aligned her...... It just felt so right. HR race/Koni SA's, Powerflex lca offset bushes, RRT max camber plts, oe strut bearings, 225/50 15 R1's, K1's 15 /7.



    Did it yesterday........


    FRONT
    3.25 neg camber( toyos like at least 3, yeah!!!!)
    over 8 caster
    adjusted to 1/8 to out.

    REAR
    all w/in spec
    @ 2.25 neg camber
    minimal toe in.



    tech had told me most lowered e 30's are waaay out of spec in rear. Guess the IE poly bushes helped and guess I got lucky to buy a straight car......




    I love sitting down and just driving!

      Alignments are the shit :)

      We just got a new Beissbarth alignment machine at work. Same one the BMW factory uses themselves.

      Doing my own alignment is even better :)

          Damn!

          The shop I work at charges 1hr labor for a full alignment, doesn't matter what car or what kind of adjustments it has. $88.

                Thats pretty hilarious, as it takes about 15 minutes to align an e30 and most of that is just setting it up.
