hey how r u all.
Just a quick question is there a way to stop my wheel alignment going out on my ef. I know that the 18's won't help. But it seems to go out cause of stupid things, like pulling into a drive way, cause im so low i have to go on the angle and cause one wheel goes up first it pulls it out. Is there a way to strengthen it or something. cheers turbofairmont

it sounds as tho you may have a problem with your front end there mate....
It really shouldn't be going out of alignment if you are just driving slowly up low impact kerbs, even on the angle...... I've been doing that for years and never had a problem with my alignment going out. Couple of ?'s tho, is it going out to the point that you notice it whilst driving, or are you just noticing a feathering and wearing of the tyres?? If it's just the second, do you have a Camber Castor Kit?

Hey everyone. Just thought id let you know that i found and have fixed my problem.
Some of you mentioned that this was the reason. I went to a suspension place here in adelaide called SA Suspension centre. They went over my car and said that i needed and adjustable camber/castor kit and also when my brother put my lowered shockers in, he put the lower shocker bolt facing the wrong way. So when i went to do a u-turn the shocker bolts would hit my tie-rod ends and f**k up my wheel alignment. After getting that all done now it drives like a dream, but the only thing i have to do now is roll the front gaurds cause when i go up drive ways the tyre hits the gaurd. thak you all for your help.
