I think I am talking to myself in this thread but if anyone is still interested:

Before you rush out and buy stanza struts, be aware that the final alignment specs arent that encouraging.

camber: pretty much neutral -0.2 deg.

caster: Not enough, even with the shorter 120y radius rods 0.7 deg. the mechanic suggested another 5mm of thread on the radius rods would be required for decent caster.

Toe: the toe was set to 2mm of toe. With his weight hanging off the sway bar to simulate weight transfer from breaking, this swapped to 2mm of toe out. This is about normal for an old car, so no major issue. Could be improved by(cold) bending the steering arm down by about 5mm.

The main issue is still trackwidth. These suspension specialists that I went to recon the +25mm trackwidth rule is set in stone, and the only chance iof getting it through is to keep quiet and hope they dont measure the track
