All cars are like that not sure why but never seen a car that doesn't have one wheel in more than the other

Ive heard its due to the diff being slightly offcentre or the subframe it self being slightly offcentre.

Car manufacturers never expected owners to be running wheels so close to the guards that you can tell the difference haha

I don't understand how any of this makes sence, the allignment tools have Indipendang levels in them. If its out, it's out.. Unless there is some auto correction when you put the specific car in..

But birds what you said doesn't make sence because how are they going to compensate for fat dream boats like me?

I think what Alex and I are talking about is the offset of the wheels to guards. Majority of the time, one wheel will sit out more than the other side. The camber setting would probably be the same on both sides hence why one side would look slightly different in reference to the guard/body etc

i dont know, its friday.

Well when I got my car alligned at Centreline...and mind you I have adjustable poly bushes on just about the whole frikken car...they corner weighted it and alligned it so that with an ~80kg driver, there is a near 50/50 side to side weight distribution and the camber sits about the same on both sides. Sucks when you have a passenger and can tell the difference though...

This and what birds said I think the thing is off centre so even though the camber is the same the actual wheel position is out a little bit on one side even although the camber settings are the same.

Shitted me with the 33, but no two guards are rolled perfectly the same either which probably doesn't help

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
