The car was still pulling left after 2x do alignment. The funny thing was my alignment suddenly felt a lot better after doing the Autofoam "Track"...don't understand why though  hmm.gif
Wah....hmm, wonder if any player accept lossless formats like FLAC...

BTW, do you think the "Voodoo" tweak work well?
*
-----------------------------------------
Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC) is an audio codec audio data compression, primarily authored by Josh Coalson.

FLAC accomplishes data compression without sacrificing the integrity of the audio source, since it does not discard any part of the data. A digital audio recording (such as a CD track) converted by FLAC can be decompressed into an identical copy of the audio data. Audio sources encoded to FLAC are typically reduced to 50–60% of their original size.[2]

FLAC is suitable for everyday audio playback and archival, with support for tagging, cover art and fast seeking. FLAC's free and open source royalty-free nature makes it well-supported by many software applications. FLAC playback support in portable audio devices and dedicated audio systems is limited at this time, compared to lossy formats like MP3,[3] but FLAC is supported out of the box by more hardware devices than competing lossless formats like WavPack.



-----------------------------------------
since its royalty-free will have a good future - lossless in a car wow! i need optima for that.....

yup... don't touch the camber nut.. There is no need to adjust camber.. Infact our car the camber is not adjustable.. It is already pre-fix/configure by manufacture.. Unless your car meet with serious accident & the camber is out.. Then, u need to change adjustable camber nut... During my spectra time.. really night mare.. They want to earn $$, e v time want to adjust camber & the charges is RM 80.. sucks blood.. Until i can't stand with it & change my to my stock camber nut..
*
Sugen - your info is incorrect. your problem is the service center not the camber nut. for me the camber nut is a must for proper handling setup for more aggressive driving style + fine tuning. i did not face a problem with this so they place u went to is not honest. camber nut is a tire saver if you hit a large pot hole your OEM camber will rosak especially after 1yr most camber will lari. without the adjustable camber nut u have to change whole absorber/mount etc. for track if u don't have adjustable camber nut u need to use adjustable top mount which is more expensive. so this simple nut is worth every cent lar!

Haven't done my alignment yet. Car do tend to deviate to left.

Unclear 'bout this 'inside out' installation. Did the problem arise because the 2 of the stock rims are designed to turn clockwise (hence should be on forte's right front and rear) and the other 2 rims are meant to turn anticlockwise (hence should be  on the left).(?) So if NAZA didn't install the rims accordingly ... alignment suffers. Just assuming though ..... the rims might be all the same.

Or could it be the stock tyres were not installed on the correct (left/right) side to ensure they turn as they're designed to (either clockwise or anticlockwise) according to each tyre thread pattern.(?) Anyway ... I haven't really look at the tyre thread pattern yet. I doubt tyres are specified into 2 ... to turn either clockwise or anticlockwise.

Sorry for the giddiness induced rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif

your tire is not directional so can use both directions ler that was a misinformation. keep telling u guys its caster and camber.

Not being much of a car-mechanics buff , will proceed with alignment first and hopefully goes well.
If not , have to read-up more regarding caster and camber.

Interestingly, my brother Peugeot 308THP CBU also deviate to right (or is it left) on straight driving.  After much researching, he learnt that it is purposely tuned as such because highways in France are not level .... they are slightly angle to the left. This is done to ensure rainwater flows to the side of the road and not get pooled in the middle of the road. Thus the alignment are offset to the right to counter the road which are levelled to the left. Dunno true or not... nod.gif

its to the left KLAuto boss Desmond also have 308THP same problem cause for left hand drive market they are on the right side of the road which means their road is sloping to the right therefore the need the car setup to lean to left to compensate. when its used here we all end up going to the left pulak! rclxub.gif
