    Don't think the other one was just for drift, anyway mine:
    1.5mm overall toe out (wanted 1mm but they though 1.5 was close enough....)
    -2.5 camber
    +3.5 caster

    Car has awesome turn in but is really twitchy/scary at high speeds like 4th/5th gear.

    Reduce the toe out on the rear to 0 or less, and/or reduce negative camber on the front, should get rid of the twitchyness

    I find 0 toe carries better speed through the corners, esp the high speed stuff... toe out makes the car too twichy... more suited to drift setup...
    -2.5 camber 3.5 caster is a good setup to start with. i get a good graining across the face of the tyre (14" advan 048) with this setup. The car is very netural, you can oversteer or understeer at will if you know what your doing. Just play with the tire pressures for adjustment.
