Well thanks for all the advice. I finally took my car to centreline on monday for the wheel allignment. Turns out all the camber and caster bushings were stuffed, all torn and cracked, so there was no point doing an allignment with those bushes. So I lashed out and spent some cash with whiteline adjustable camber and caster bushes. $800 all up with allignment so a fair bit more than I expected but a huge improvement in steering feel and the car rides a lot better now. He said he gave me a SAU member discount although I don't know how much it was. I dealt with Chris mostly and he was helpful but the older guy (Glen I think?) was a cranky old bastard. Now I gotta just get some new tyres and I'm all set for DECA. See you all there.
