4 wheel alignment specs rev 3 turbo

[azznwab]

Hi guys, I've had my 4 wheel alignment done to uk specs and i dont feel the car drives as well as it could do. Ďoes anyone have any suggestions for 4 wheel alignment specs for my rev 3 turbo mods are as follows

Bc coilovers
Fully poly bushed suspension and anti roll bars
Front wheel specs 17x8 32 et 215 40 17 + 2mm spacer
Rear wheel specs 17x9 38 et 245 40 17

As always thanks in advance

If done on hunters machine they should have the correct turbo settings.

That being said if you do a Google search for Dino's alignment settings you'll find some. I can't remember if they are on here or mr2oc

Also get it corner weighted. It's cheap and makes a big difference to the way the car handles.

It was aligned by kwit fit. I brought a package, 8 alignments over 2years for £100. They had a few mr2 files on there but we couldn't really distinguished what they were. But they said if i get the specs they would happly go off them.

It's Kwik Fit, I'm not surprised they did a xxxx job.

Take it somewhere that isn't terrible and go from there.

There is a thread with alignment specs right at the top of the mechanical section of this forum - http://www.imoc.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=25719

Thanks all

IMHO I'd go back, ask for a refund (or a proportion) as they have not aligned to your specific model and take your money elsewhere.

Kwik fit will never do a good job, full stop.

I'd wager that it's still feeling odd because it's completely off.

[azznwab]

Only have after picture as they ran out of ink

[SonicSW20]

That's after? Can tell they didn't put a lot of effort in, they didn't even bother to get the front toe matched on both sides. You've also go positive camber on the front right!

In fact, looks like it's a got a bit bit of toe out on one side and a bit of toe in on the other?? And Toe out on the back?

Honestly if it was me I'd cut my losses with shitfit and take it somewhere better and get it one properly.

Where do you live? Some people may have suggestions for a place that's close to you that'll do a good job.

Mmmm toe out on the back is not great on the MR2, have a heard a touch on the front can have results though, I'm not brave enough to try yet. Completely agree that 4 corner weight balancing will transform the drive though, had this done by Avia Speed along with a complete alignment, different car.

Take it elsewhere, I had mine tracked previously at a tyre shop and although the toe either side was matched, across the whole rear axle at the back it was completely off the centre line. Cannot recommend enough you take it to some people who track cars for performance driving regularly.
