Don't mean to hijack (well..actually I do ). I have the opposite problem. Since My wheel-alignment (fitted 4 new wheels), my AYC lights are very active - when driving straight along the freeway, sometimes i have 1 bar on the whole time. Also, there is a low-midrange whirring noise at about 50km/h (probably there all the time, but gets cancelled out by the exhaust).
I've struggled to find wheel-alignment specs for this car. I'm sure my issue is related to this. Anyone in Sydney recommend a shop to take it to to get this fixed up? Do Meek do this stuff?
Any information / experience would be most helpful.
As for no lights coming on, do you get the correct diagnostic sequence of lights when your car comes on? ie, Red AYC light goes out after a few seconds at the right time?

RED AYC LIGHTS on startup????? it should be 3x Green Bars, not Red.
The 3 Green Bars should stay on for a second or 2, then go out.
Something is amiss here....................... Probably start with a ECU reboot, then see if this clears it up, If you are still getting RED AYC Lights, there is a problem that needs investigating
Just for the record, you want the toe angle to be should be half as much as the camber you have. IE if you have 2 degrees of camber, you want 1 degree of toe in for best tyre life.
If you want to go around corners really well, set the rears to 0 toe and set the fronts to a small amount of toe out, around 1 degree. This will chew through your tyres quickly though
Thanks very much for the advice, Brad and for the specs, Kat! Very helpful. I have a feeling the mob who put my wheels on "guessed" (badly) the specs. It hasn't been right since.
My three green bars light up at startup, the red warning light also comes on before turning the key and then as soon as the engine comes on they all go out and i dont see them again till i start the car again???
I get 1 or 2 bars well before you're even trying in my car. 3 bars well before the KU36 tyres are anywhere near their limit. but they are a pretty grippy street tyre.
slightly harsher than a normal street tyre. nothing to worry about. I get a fair bit of road noise though - didn't get that with them on my JZA80 Supra...
