alignment in our cars suck! the dealer told me to buy an aftermarket camber kit, I looked at him and said "You must be crazy, I'm not buying a suspension part to put my car back to FACTORY settings, so you fix it and put it back how it was because the original partss are still there" I hate dealers

the alignments are naturally set to have a slight pull so the car will drift to the right. barely noticeable with factory tires. now if you put directional tires on, damn it is a big difference. for some reason the directional tires enhance the pull. i had that problem horribly bad when i had my si. most of yall can remember me complaining about it. needless to say, the dealer eventually said we arent touching it because of the lowering springs....go figure. stay on their ass mike.

oh, got your message. been sleeping for most the day, my back is killing me and can barely walk. i wouldnt have had a problem doing it. sorry bro.

man, idk about getting a used evo, you know it's definitely been driven hard as hell. if i had one and i knew i was selling it soon, i'd probably drive the piss out of it and launch it a lot. anyways, make sure you have that crap checked out....
