Troy, Great car ;D You guys need to play the lottery the way you find these clean cars. Alignment question: with the lower stance, what specs do you adjust the camber, caster (I'll assume you shimed it), and the toe (in or out). Do you have any experience with more negative camber than stock? Thanks and keep up the good work. -Ray

Actually I have the special camber adjuster nuts and I flipped my tie rods... But you get negative camber in rear and slight positive camber in the front...

Looking good, I used to laugh at the old volkswagens but going through the forum I have a new respect for them.
