Whenever a 911 is lowered below specs it becomes impossible to align to factory settings since all adjusment parameters are affected by the lowered geometry.
So, what you need to do in order to compensate for this newly created problem is to modify your spring plates and front shock hats in order to get the needed additional adjustment.
The front shock hats are fairly simple; just remove them and grind the sides so as to allow extra clearance outwards for more positive camber.
In the rear you need to have it aligned with the lower spring plate bolt removed which allows you to adjust the rear camber to zero or whatever you want. Later you can file the spring plate hole so you can get the bolt back in and secure it.
The numbers on my car are now:
25 3/4 front w/ +.25 camber L/R
25.....rear w/ 0 degrees L/R
And she's never handled better!
