Default dumped flushed out owners, whats your alignment specs??

after countless hours of adjusting the height, rolling the fenders, then flaring, then adjusting the height, my MAX camber up front could only go to -3.1, and my rear -3.4. I set the toe the standard 1/32'' that Lexus preferred. But I would like to adjust the camber a little more lower.

whats are yours? My camber adjustment is MAXED out and I cant get it anymore increased. Custom eccentrics? Custom control arms?

Wow, with that kind of camber, how low did you get your Total Toe down to?

Just curious what components you guys have to adjust/gain negative camber up front? Most of the coilovers on the market for our 2gs's don't have camber plates up front right, so what is available? Or is it just more negative camber from going lower? And also, are you using anything to adjust the toe, or just factory components?

I am using all factory components with just Megan LP coilovers. I am AMAZED on how low I can go. The ride feels great but you can get anymore + camber when dumped to the ground. I do have factory tie rods and they were EASILY adjusted to 1/32" like Lexus recommended. Now my car does not sway, drives straight, doesnt rub (thank god), and I am very happy.

Now its repaint, waiting for my jdm visors/CF Bpillars/CFrear window aristo cover.

Getting AP 6 POTs up front too. I have +22 offset so I should have no problem.
