I know it will be different, I was just curious what yours is lol. I like seeing the variety of set ups. And yeah, nothing else to do this late at night. Uhh isn't our caster not adjustable? And I go to Darin at WestEnd

50/50? Our front to rear weight distribution is 62/38, not exactly what I'd call close..Unless you mean cross weights, which is very close to 50/50 stock. I actually plan on going 650f/700r for when I get my new suspension, just cause I want to super twitchy. I still dont get how you oversteer so bad. Are you lifting when you shouldn't or something? Wish I could have gotten a ride along with that set up.

Whoever told you that caster cannot be adjusted doesn't know what he's talking about. Alot of times people focus on camber and toe that they forget how important caster is. Tech3 taught me this. The first time they aligned my car after I got my 5 lugs, my car felt so much better that I had to call them back and say "whatever you did to my car, it's freakin awesome!". Lol.

Yes I did mean cross weight. I don't lift unless I know that the car is losing traction. Lol. I wish I could have taken a ride with you too. I'm always interested in other people's driving style.
Watch this video carefully. I will be coming into the screen and then use my oversteer to take the off ramp. (you might want to watch it in full screen because of the poor quality)

Sounds like your setup will be fun on the track. I don't daily my integra but I still had to swap out my rear 500lb springs for 350lb since when I did drive it on the street it was too rough for me, haha. Was nice on the track tho. Keep us updated to how it handles on the track!

Yeah it's hard to find suspension that can be well off for both DD and the track.
Will do!

Nobody ever told me that it couldn't be, I just don't see how it can be on our cars. So I guess idk what I am looking at. How is caster adjusted on out cars? And yeah im aware its important.

Thats not a bad price. Should be worth it.

Highway 80 to frisco has done a weight reduction on my front lca, I think. Lol. I always pound pavement thru Pinole to Richmond. Fml

On stock suspension you can't adjust caster. Only toe.
Camber with a camber kit.
Caster with a caster adjustable top hat.

To clear up any confusion.

There are numerous ways that you can adjust caster. I'm at 2.5 Degree now. I'll have to ask Tech 3 how they did it.

Hmm, yeah find out. I am very interested to hear how they adjusted it for you. Because I am like 100% sure you can't adjust caster on stock suspension. I like learning something new though. Maybe they adjusted something on your traction bar, which changed your caster?

A stock suspension setup can not have caster adjusted hunters adjustment machine doesn't have an option for it. Only way I can think of is bending stuff.
