    So how did the alignment work out today? I was up there around 9:30am, and Bam was able to get -1.8 out of the fronts after the RB springs, even with the caster up around +7.5.
    Great! We went as low as possible with the negative camber in the rear and it was still at -1.9, so we went to -1.8 up front (could have gotten more) and a little toe in front and rear.

    The car feels great and the alignment got rid of the push from the front RX-8 bar.

    I'll have to check when I get home, but they were scewed from the lowering. I'd guess the original ride height numbers were probably close to the ones I had on the RX-8 (-.5 front and -1.5 rear, in camber).

    So....now that you have had the Tein S springs on for a while.
    How do you like the ride compared to stock?, is it flatter in the corners?

    If you want flatter cornering, consider some RX-8 sway bars/bushings.
