Just for reference, acceptable range in the front suspension are as follows:
Camber -0.7º - +0.3º
Caster +7.2º - +8.2º
Toe -0.04º - +0.04º
Rear suspension:
Camber -1.3º - -0.3º
Toe +0.012 - +0.20º
Well....it's a 2JZ. People are making 400+whp on stock twins, but they will fail eventually.
Set up the twins as parallel and do some tuning. Intake, Exhaust, Injectors, tune.
-1.0 camber is less than a lot of cars have from the factory, as long as your other specs are normal, the tires should wear fine.
Find yourself a knowledgeable alignment shop who know and are comfortable with modified street cars. They should be able to give you a lot of insight on what you...
I ran without power steering on my black supra, and while I wouldn't call it stupid, it's not the best thing for a real heavy car like these.
Although you WILL gain at least 1" in your forearms, no lie. After a year, I could parallel park with one hand. haha
It did take it's toll, if you...

I want to go 295/35 or 295/30 in the rear next time around. The 285's have a rounded edge to them, but the fronts are nice and square. It could be the Michelin's though, they have that shape to them...
Bilstein w/ST Springs here. Bilsteins are on the lowest setting
For a smooth DD that you only want a slight drop on, Bilstein + stock springs is the way to go.
No sacrifice in ride quality from what I've heard, much better damping.
Here's mine with the Bilstein/ST and 18's
Boris: Thanks! I think that's my next tire size once the Michelin's are worn out, which may be sooner than later. If you know anyone with a good hook up on a used set keep me in mind.
Also, with tires this big, mind the mouldings where they wrap into the wheel well, my tires rub on them pretty...
I'm amazed that this thread is still full steam ahead. I love it! I can't understand most of it, but I'm amazed at the work that is still going into it! Keep up the good work and I'll likely be in for the initial production run!
Here is mine. This year I'm adding a 10mm spacer to the front to fill out the flare I created and match the rear a bit better. Contemplating going 15mm front and 5mm rear also... Guess I'll see how the 10mm front looks and go from there.

I sure hope nobody answers that. Mine is hidden for a good reason.
Why not get a switch that will work for what you want? Switches don't cost much at all, and you really only need an SPST for what you want to do.
I would support the engine from above and drop the subframe. Much easier on a lift, if you have access.
I think Toyota actually recommends removing the engine, which is how I did it when mine was leaking.
