I showed some love for the IS today and detailed it.

Finally, some motivation for Johnny to detail his own IS since he has his own porter cable now!

you just motivated me mang! i've been messing with some small waxes here and there on my wagon but nothing compares to the products you're prolly using. when school ends next week i'll call you up for some car detail schooling of your own!

I actually added another layer of wax on the car after that. The paint has a little bit more clarity and reflection, but not much of a difference. My friend was suggesting that I might need to do about 3+ coats before I'd notice the difference, but I'm done working on the car.

your caster is out of spec. you should have more positive caster on right siide.

i got my daily re-aligned by this reputable alignment shop in SD, and wow what a experience that was. The Alignment guy painted a line on all 4 tires, explained to me me that lowered cars toe shouldn't be set at zero, and explained the reason why, also explained alignments to me in measurements instead of computerized print outs, lastly aligned the car with me in it..

How much he charged you bro? Where is the shop located?

Why should lowered car's toe not be at zero?

I want to do some preventive maintenance along with my igniter and coil.

Why should lowered car's toe not be at zero?

If i remember correctly the old man said a little positive toe is good to compenstate for the negative camber, and while its good for Stock cars to have their toe set at zero, lowered cars are totally different. The guy that did my alignment before set my toe to zero, and my tires were cupping after 3000 miles on the inside.. I thought it was my camber but the old man today showed me how the measurements changed when i sat in the car. It didnt change much, but the settings changed to a point where the toe was off because it was originally set to zero with no one in it.

I know its confusing, seriously i thought i understood alignments because i would always read the computer printout and go ok, this is the before specs and these are the completed specs, but with him he was explaining things in mm, which made a little sense but most of the time i was like WTF..

old man needs to lay off the pipe.

yeah and you need to lay off the reply button JK Wilson

Anyways the Guy was very knowledgeable on alignments, kind of how you're knowledgeable at stating the obvious..

i would rather have him align my car then some guy at a automotive chain which has no clue what he's doing. But thats just me..

[ikayto]

yea i'm jking as well, just found it funny the old man stumped you :]

Well thats his profession, so he should be able to stump someone who knows little about alignments.

Shiet some of your replies stump me to the point where I'm like wtf are you talking about
