Alignment Specs Question

This encompasses both alignment and ride height parameters if such
adjustments are provided by the stock components and specified by
the factory as normal methods of adjustment. However, no suspension
part may be modified for the purpose of adjustment unless such modification is specifically authorized by the factory shop manual for
non-competition purposes.

Unless I am missing something, the bold part means in stock class one needs to stay with in the stock specifications.

Doesn't really matter as I think I only have one more event in HS. After that it's STF.

Cheers.

You should have kept reading :
13.8.E. If offered by the manufacturer for a particular model and year, the
use of shims, special bolts, removal of material to enlarge mounting
holes, and similar methods are allowed and the resulting alignment
settings are permitted even if outside the normal specification or
range of specifications recommended by the manufacturer. If enlarging
mounting holes is specifically authorized but no material removal
limits are specified, material removal is restricted to the amount necessary
to achieve the maximum factory alignment specification.

Order the smallest set of Toyota bolts for the Yaris and max it.
