      Yea there are three adjustable arms in the back, camber traction and toe. For some reason I feel like I have more room for adjustment because I don't have that much camber in the rear.

          Ok, So with teh camber maxed this is the insane amount of toe in I have lol, going to correct toe, loose a little camber in the process but the next step is a serious pull. Hoping the quarter does not split because I already shaved it. Worst case scenario I order custom upper arms or shave the back of the wheel pads down a little. Thoughts?

                    Rear fitment is on point finally, had to pull the shit out of them and got a couple dimples in the mean time but overall the rear is exactly where i want it.

                    Look who finally came out of the garage

                    The goal is to have it ready for Staggered which is prolly my favorite show in the NE, so the car is going for body work monday to remove some rust from the quarters and to get those quarters minty fresh. Other wise I am waiting for the homie Jared to finish polishing my wheels and then mounting the tires. Once the front wheels are back I can install the 326 Power Camber Rca which should get me to about 8-10* in the front and it should be sitting pretty. Thats basically it for now, I ordered a Kit which is being shipped from Japan but I am keeping it on the DL till its on and painted along with some fenders that I hope to have Super Start customs do.

                            lollol, True but my e brake is whats holding me up, I have it adjusted as far as possible and cant toe it out any farther because it puts tension on the e brake cable. So either I cut it or eat tires. Who needs e brakes right?

                                Took it out for a spin tonight, front strut towers need to be cut for clearance on the strut tower, and I need to figure out a solution for rear sway bar links, the rear end is looser then Jenna Jameson.

                                But all in all I found what I hope was the last of the leaks, that's the worst park about manual management stupid little leaks.
