What Alignment are other AW11 owners using?

[Duk]

The AW11 MR2's have plenty of adjustability built into their suspension, so I thought I’d ask other AW11 owner’s what specs they are using, what they have used, and what they think of their set ups.
Obviously other things can have a huge effect on suspension behavior/handling, so assuming your cars don’t have stuffed shocks/bush’s/ball joints, this should be interesting.

My ’88 SC MR2 has:
0 toe in, 1degree negative camber and as much positive caster as could be wound into it, at the front.
2.5degrees negative camber and 3mm toe in at the back.

What is your car doing? Im an aligner/ mechanic by trade. I have set up three difrent mr2 race cars for difrent race meets and they have difrent specks for difrent tracks. All comes down to what you wont the car to do.

I have no real complaints with my car. I use to run with 2.5degrees negative camber, 3mm toe in, and standard caster at the front, but it lacked directional stabilty in cross winds (scared the crap out of a mate who drove it for me on a windy day) and locked front wheels very easily. With the settings I listed in the first post, I have better directional stability, it doesn't tram line like a bastard, has better feel, heaps more front braking grip and has good turn in.
I'm more interested in reading what others have used and their thoughts on what works well and not so well.
What sought of angles can you recomend for the back, and can you sujest any improvements for the front? It only gets used on the road, tho.
Cheers for your interest.

im running
Front
-1.7 camber.
2mm total toe IN
MAX Castor

Rear
-2 camber
2mm total toe OUT


this can make it a little twitchy in the corners but makes it pull around the really tight stuff like its on rails.

also tends to bring out some of the characteristic understeer the aw11 has when hooking it into something relaly tight.

that said the toe out at the back makes it a little obnoxious/exciting in slipery conditions

Cheers for some numbers
What is your rear tyre wear like? Do they wear evenly accross the tread? I was told toe in helps to even out the wear, when you have a fare bit on neg. camber, but it does tend to make the end with toe in less 'active'

the toe in should make it a little more stable at speed and tend not to step out and be quite as twitchy. where the tail of mine is a little twitchy but like i said hooks into tight stuff like its on rails.

my tyre wear is uneven the insides flog out if im driving it sedatly but its its getting a good working ie track or mountains then the wear is more even. in also running Falken semis RT615 in 205/50/15 on mine on a 15x6.5 ET+30 wheel.
