if the balljoints, tierods ect ect strut plates ect ect are all tight then its time to take it to a alignment shop, they will put it to spec. when ever the subframe is moved you should have the alignment redone.

Sure that you don't mean a toe problem? If the steering wheel is straight in all of the pictures, it looks like the tires are toed out. Since you just replaced the steering rack, you need an alignment to get the toe back where it should be. Toe is adjusted using the outer tie rod ends.

I know it also has a toe problem but i know how to fix that(alignment). I was worried about the camber because it looks like something is disconnected. I didn't think that the subframe could shift the camber that much. i have tokicos and eibach springs but i still have those plates welded on the towers. should i punch those out before I bring it to the shop?

Either you do it before you take it in or they charge you extra to do it. At least I used to charge extra for it.

Also, extreme toe angles can sometime give the perception of a camber issue. Try adjusting the toe with a tape measure and see how it looks. Just a thought.

ok so the general consensus is that if everything is tight and hooked up, this is just a car in need of an alignment?
