for the 1st gen.



stock 12A is like +1 camber, 4 caster and lots of toe in in the front. rear is solid axle and non adjustable.

stock GSL-SE is 0 camber, 4 caster, and lots of toe.



stock alignment wants it to be STABLE and understeer.



a good STREET alignment is to get as much negative camber as you can (-1 is nice), set toe to zero, or just slightly in (1/8").



a RACE alignment depends on the TIRES, so it could have camber in the -2.5 to -6 range, with some toe OUT. rear needs about -1 camber



on an FC.



stock Front is like 0 camber, 4? castor, and again lots of toe in

stock Rear is -1 to -1.5 camber, and lots of toe.



a good STREET alignment, is to run as much negative camber you can get in the front (-.5 is about all you can get). i like zero toe in the front.



in the rear, ive played with the rear toe, it makes a HUGE difference in the FEEL of the car. stock toe in makes the car feel really stable and planted. zero makes the car turn in a lot better, but to make it work you need to be on the gas, which is hard to do on the street. so i like a little toe in, very little



the FD i lack experience with.
