    My laignment settings are currently stock. The suspension is also currently stock. I don't have the measurements with me, so I can't post them.

    Brakes:
    Original Master Cyl., should be 13/16ths.
    Front STD with Bendix IQ pads.
    Rear stock Integra disks with Wearever golds.
    Fluid = ATE Super Blue.

    ** The ATE fluid isn't all that great. At Road Atlanta the pedal was still fading, during my sessions. I only ran two sessions on Sunday. My Dad drove the car all weekend, however.

    I have a Si front sway and no rear sway.

    Tires are 195/50/15 Toyo Proxes 4s. I usually set the front pressures to 30-35psi and the rear to 35-40 psi.

    Ben - To get your rear camber more positive, you can add washers behind the pivot link that is bolted to the body. You have to also use slightly longer bolts to maintain the correct amount of thread engagement.

    Most likely:
    Friday, after you get off work.
    and/or
    Saturday and Sunday, and miss some Nopi.

    Anytime is fine with me. Just say when.

    We'll my setup is awesome

    Coilovers: Ebay Specials(Arospeed i think, they were free)
    Settings: Front- 2/3 down
    Rear- All the way down, one twist perch removed

    Struts: Stock

    Swaybar: Front- DX bar
    Rear- None

    Bushings: Stock

    Brakes: Integra Disk Front & Rear
    Pads: Stock
    Disk: Stock
    M/C: Remanufactered stock
    Fluid: DoT 4
    Prop. Valve: Integra

    Wheels: 14" O.Z.

    Tires: Suminto(?) $35 Tirerack.com

    All alignment was done before the coilovers were installed so ever thing is zeroed out, other than the camber

    This is by far the ultimate setup. I've beaten a few motorcycles running this setup(ok ok, granted the riders sucked)
