For the AE86. You can wind up the caster easily yourself. For track work, just wind up the caster as much as you can untill the tyres nearly hit the gaurds when turning. Caster should be the same on either side to stop it wanting to steer one way, but with lots of caster this is not so much of a problem.
For camber you can't do anything unless you get adjustable strut tops or something, maybe lengthen the control arms. For track, go alot of negative camber, like 3 degrees. For street and some track 1.5 degrees will be fine.
Mostly, and for street, toe-in shoul be right on zero. Toe will wear your tyres heaps if its not right. Camber will not realy wear tyres like people say. When on the track, you will find you wear the outside of the front tyres. To compensat, use a little toe-out, and you will get more even wear. Make sure you put the toe-in back to zero for the street, or you will wear the inside of the tyres heaps.
