      • Judging by that level, I'm guessing you are at least .02 degrees off level. Pull it, start from scratch, and do not post another pic until you get it right! It's almost embarrassing to see such shodding work. In fact I'm so disappointed in your craftsmanship, pull everything and I'll be down tomorrow with my truck and we'll get that mess loaded up so you don't embarrass yourself again! Damn near can't take you out in public any more Shadran!

              • I guess its about time to take all the junk off of the roof on the car. Its finally sitting on its own four feet again. Sits kind of high. Think I might have to lower it some, looks like the axles are angled downward a lot. I know nothing about lowering a car. If I didnt think Id hex myself Id say Im at least past the half way mark.

                    • ^ Thank you ! Im not sure on the wireing. I have a plan but I dont know if its the right one. Two wires to the ECU, one from the VICS and one from the distributor. Then swap the stock festiva ISC connector out for the one from the EGT. The PRC plug wires directly into the brown existing plug on the festiva. Moving the VAF and battery are optional I guess. Oh yeah, already swapped out the injector harnesses.

                      • My front tires are like this. \ / What gives ? I was suppose to use festiva LCAs, right ? Ive almost turned the outer tie rods ends all the way in. It appears to be aligned but has a serious toe in.

                            I think camber is the word I was looking for not toed in. The tire appear to be headed down the line of travel but the top of the tire is out and the bottom of the tire is in. Ill get a pic. Yes its sitting on the ground. I left all the bolts somewhat loose then lowered it down but it didnt seem to help.

                              • You might have to buy a pair of camber bolts, Fresh. I always have a pair on hand. Replaces one of the strut bolts and allows camber to adjust 1 1/2 degrees. EBay is cheapest but Oreillya carries them. Also, doesn't spinning the tophat 180degrees change camber?

                                After, thinking about it for a couple seconds, you probably knew all this, so, sorry if it seemed like I was insulting your intelligence.
