Default Alignment / geometry settings MY03 JDM STI

Hi folks,

Where can I get Alignment / geometry settings for my 2003 STI Impreza. I would like standard settings and if possible some suggetions on what might be better. Required for both Front and Rear.

The car is lowered on BC coilovers.

Thanks.

You won't get stock settings on a lowered car, front castor and rear camber is changed by lowering and you can't adjust them back without making them adjustable!

Why fit coilovers and ask for stock settings anyway!

Would suggest:-
0.75 degrees of -ve camber at the front with 0 to 0.15 degrees of toe in.

Rear parallel.

No rear thrust angle!

hi ya big scotsman ,lol
what you req,is more caster on the front .as you have coilovers ///turn your top mounts around or swap sides to gain more caster ,fit anti lift kit ,then adjust camber with camber bolts .standard sibbie on the top whiteline below 14mm bolt to give you the adjustment you want .
the rear can take 2x camber bolts 14mm do the job once and do it right.
the right parts fitted with the geo set will pay dividends
cheers geo
