True.
That and scrub radius.
Changing the camber changes both.
Toe also effects how the wheel returns to center. Soo many variables.
Eh, i'm learning ****..... Right now, i just want to get through the basic engine crap under the hood. Full emissions removal, fuel system workover and some harness alterations.... THEN, after the car moves under it's own power again (probably in a month or two depending how fast parts get here), i'll get some alignment settings, correct what needs to be corrected and then see how the car is. I have a feeling my toe is way the **** off up front. Not visibly but something is wrong. If it's still not right after that, i'll bust out the drill.
Stock caster is like 4.5-5 degrees.

Every event since I have been in the 240 I spin every first transition of the day because im used to the fc and throwing the wheel to transition the car. BUT the gay 240 does it itself not to mention slow and boring (pretty much feels like you could manji down a strait just using all throttle and no hands)

Bushings eh? More suspension eh? I'll check em out. I like how the back end of the car feels. Like i said. Something is just funky up front.
What do you recommend if my stockies **** the bed? Mazdatrix or something harder?
I'm going to get a rough measurement of my front and rear toe this weekend and see if that's a problem.
Then again, if the wheel is straight and i let go, the car doesn't wander at all. It tracks straight.
If i pull the wheel either left or right and let go (even under a good bit of throttle) it will keep tracking wherever i pointed the wheels. No hands on the wheel.
It's pissing me off trying to figure out wtf is going on.
Haha.
