Your camber says negative & toe is +0.06” .... 1/16” positive by your sheet

Stand those back tires more upright & you will get more positive toe :tup:
Negative toe is terrible on the rear of a street Z :icon14:
Spec calls for twice as much positive toe on rear vs front.

Be careful on a triple digit blast, the azz end might feel nervous with your minimal toe setting :driving:

Front and rear are set at 1/16" in.

You don’t drive fast & you’ll be okay, just saying from experience.....the more toe (especially rear) the Z will hold straight.
I ended up with 1/16”F & 1/8”R.....had 1/4” rear at one time

By the way, I made a mistake, my toe is positive, not negative. Oops.

Keep it on the positive side; unsure if you just poke around like old-folk :icon17: Or blasting it out like Spooler :driving:
Hitting higher speeds will let you know :tiphat:

Night Folks :iagree:

I have my own settings that I like. I have the toe set to dead middle of spec. That is what I prefer. I don't care for a twitchy car. I hate that.

Front or rear, or both?

Both, now the camber I set to my spec. -1.4 front and -1.5 rear. I need
to go to -1.5 front and -1.4 rear. Still debating that change.

Nothing wrong with those specs. I show factory toe spec as: Front 0.08, Rear 0.15

The SPL engineer was telling me that the Z turns in better with the rear ride height a little higher than the front.
