THe only reason my car is this low has to be, I lift all four corners almost every week to detail underneath and the wheels and the wheel wells etc..I believe this is the reason my suspension has seen so much + - travel. Honestly, its only lowered on the stock bolts.and the bushing are still inplace... I can barely get one finger between the tire and the fender. Ive checked the suspension often, everything looks fine.. I am not complaining either.

I know everybody is having a lot of fun here and I hate to get serious, but as long as we have all the attention of the lowered cars, I have a question. I have not looked under the car to investigate the lowereing situation and I was wondering. If you lower it to the max on stock bolts, leaving the bushings in tact, the alignment is obviously affected but, how much? Does it affect the toe or just the camber? My guess is some negative camber only. Is this correct and does anybody know about how much negative camber? How long would it take to lower it in this way?
What I'm getting at is: would I be able to lower it for a track day where a little negative camber is desirable and put it back afterwards?
Thanks in advance
