Stock GT3 street alignment settings
I'm going in for an alignment check/adjustment at the dealership. Do you guys know what the specs are? I want to make sure it is done right. Thanks

Click on search button at the top of this page. Type in "GT3 Alignment AND Viken". Your dealer will have the correct specs anyway. Whether he can do the alignment properly is another matter.

You know Bob it is very difficult to get someone to do it correct.
I had my GT3 done at the dealer and they got the back as to spec
(i thought) and did not do the front properly, i go to get the front done somewhere else and there alignment machine gave a completely different result, there is two weeks between them, how could that be?
The dealer's print out had 8 degrees caster and on the other machine it had 6.5 degrees and as i said it rubs at full lock which from what i have read means the caster is off, likely 6.5 degrees is the correct actual caster, not at all like what the dealer claimed, the rear camber was different as well as the toe, by a wide margin!
Can they make up a alignment spec sheet?
The dealer better not have someone follow up on the work done.
Bob i will make plans for a trip to Montreal, work in an alignment while i am there as well as some lapping at one of your events.

Z06 - Funny how that happens isn't it? If you come this way, call Ron Green 514 488-3031 for an alignment. He's an ex racer, Porsche guru and the only guy I trust to align a car properly in these parts.
