Had my wheel alignment done today. From Beaurepaires in Brookvale.

I was actually a bit worried because the system looked really old, and the latest model Lancer they had on it was from 2005. However, Steve (who used to work at Pedders Hornsby) assured me it wouldn't make a difference. It turned out that my alignment was actually quite a bit off after I changed my springs especially toe (5mm at the front and 3mm at the back). He didn't really do any camber adjustments which I found a little odd.

I am pretty happy especially because he was a friendly guy and really explained everything he did the whole way through, which meant I got to learn a lot.

Here's a photo just for Kyrus ;)

I didn't really check what my camber values were. He told me it was all even and that depending on how much weight I bare it would change anyway...

He actually put +0.7mm toe on the rear and +0.6mm on the front instead of 0'ing it because it would reduce tyre wear supposedly.

Good thing was that he went over all my strut nuts with his rattle gun when I told him I did the springs myself heh.
