Some of us have been discussing the 914 rear suspension offline and I measured my toe curve yesterday. I figured I'd share it with the club for discussion.
The axle height scale is in inches and the zero is with the arm level. Attached image(s) |

The factory angle is 12 degrees. In my research it looks like the best compromise of all the available angles. BMW offered two different options for the M3 on was 12 deg and the other was 15 deg. They kept there race stuff at 15 degrees, but the toe curve is not as nice for the 15 deg angle. It does gain more camber.
