Your total front toe is 0.09 instead of 0.18, right?
I think you can use a little more toe-in on the rear, but if the car
doesn't wander you're okay. Not sure why you had so much toe-in
on the rear on the BEFORE... 0.80??!

Other then that, looks good. is that coilovers or springs? If coilovers
I think you're set. If lowering springs, your rear will probably settle a little
more and will need to be re-adjusted again in a couple of weeks.

looks almost identical to my before/after - did you get the SPC kit for the rear? why isn't the rear camber identical side/side?

I dug up my BEFORE after the 1.2" drop I did and you're right, the rear was like 0.96.

actually now that im looking at the sheet again its kinda hard to tell cause the print is choppy, but I think its really .10 for the total front toe

that 0.80 toe for BEFORE is not what I really had, I couldnt tell you what I really had cause they had to install the SPC Toe bolts before it went on the alignment machine, so I dont really know what it was. I have Tein CS coilovers I've had them on for about a year now and just finally got around to do the camber/toe kit and the alignment

Not really sure why the rear camber is not identical side/side but its pretty close so I didnt mind.

Do you guys think I need the front a-arms?

nismoGcoupe- cool, 0.10 total toe-in on the front is perfect imo.
The rear camber off by 0.1is fine imho for street. They can adjust
it perfectly, but who knows, the alignment rack's caliberation could
be also off...

I don't think you'll need A-arms..Im also at -1.8 on the front and the
car corners turns very well. Mine has total 0.09 toe-in, the
tires are wearing pretty flat too.
