doclin - they are in the owner's manual, which you can download from renntech.org if you don't have your car yet.

Here's the way my car came from the dealer (BTW: this is with 19" carerra sport wheels and PASM, in case it matters), measured with 5/8 tank of gas and driver on board:

Front camber: negative 0.25 deg
Front Toe: 0.7mm OUT
Rear camber: negative 1.7 deg
Rear Toe: 1.5mm IN

This was less camber than I wanted up front, so I had my alignment guy rework the front end (only), to the following spec:

Front camber: negtive 1.1 deg
Front Toe: 2.0mm OUT

I like the steering-feel better now, and I think the additional negative camber at the front will reduce understeer (not that there was much) and keep the outside shoulders of the front tires from wearing so quickly at the track.

Have fun!

Does anyone have ride height specs? I know those aren't in the manual, already looked, and we'll probably start around there and work our way down for tuning the Bilstein setup.

Thanks, but there is no guarantee that you had the right specs to begin with unless the dealer just did one before your delivery.

I try to keep a copy of an alignment printout or factory numbers in the car just in case I need them when traveling. I would think that any alignment shop could put the car back to original specs if they have updated their programs or have the right info that I give them. It would also be cheaper than going to the dealer.
