Quote: is your car front wheel drive?

The rear LSD doesn't seem to believe so ;D

Quote: 2 degrees, are you sure? that's a hell of a lot, usually 2mm is more like it (equates to about 0.25 degrees)
Theres definitely alot more than 0.25 degrees of camber adjustment in the front of an MR2, probably running closer to -1.5 deg on the front looking at it now, for reference the rear can be set up to around -3 deg if you like the "hektik drift" look. No more scrubbing on the front now either :)....

All MR2's are RWD. 2 degrees, are you sure? that's a hell of a lot, usually 2mm is more like it (equates to about 0.25 degrees)....

is your car front wheel drive? toe in should give good straight line stability, but shit turn in. toe out should give shit high speed stability, but awesome turn in. i know it's a bit different for fwd, but not exactly sure...

i run my rally car with 2 degrees toe out each wheel, total 4 degrees.....

lol Friday morning started it in reverse on the hill out of the carport and Friday evening at work starting it involved sticking leg out door to push back out of my park, then got it on the hill between the upper and lower level and let it rip down there. All good now though, well worth the relatively small amount of time and effort to throw a new starter in there.

Added some neg camber to the front, made a huge amount of difference. Wheel alignment place failed to find the camber adjustment and left it as it was... Obviously maxing out camber (at a guess ~-2 deg) resulted in wild toe in that was promptly fixed by a quality "by eye" alignment, it also got rid of any hint of steering wobble at 100km/h+ as well as the initial understeer (especially in the wet) on turn in it was suffering.....

only a day of push starting? you wimp ;) ....
Exhumed 4 Days SC AW11 MR2
After a day of running as a push start only car, starting issues have been resolved by throwing on an AE111 Blacktop 20v Starter, seems to do the job well, cranks quickly and is a bit more modern looking. 20v Starters sit on the intake side as do GZE ones, plug needs some slight trimming to fit.....
