R32 Alignment Settings

[Guest]

Any idea what they are supposed to be?

Now that my tie-rods been fixed the steering wheel is cocked real bad and its pulling like crazy so I definitely need a toe adjustment.

Any idea what the toe should be?

As far as I could find on Skylinesdownunder for an R33 they suggested,

Max Positive Caster
0mm toe
1.5 neg camber

What are you guys running? Suggestions?

Found somewhere in the depths of SDU:

STOCK ALIGNMENT SPECIFICATIONS






Sorry about the size.

I am going to look into what the best specs are to run for a road racing car (asking some SDU and SAU guys). And I'll post those when I find out.

Thanks

Should rename the post:
R32 Alignment Specs.
Since the gts-4 , gts-t and gtr are in there.

Good plan.

I also hosted the pix locally, so no chance of them dissappearing.

dumb question but... where did the printout originate? australia? they drive on the left side of the road? so... do these specs reflect compensation for the road cambering to the left, as opposed to us on the right? :?:

[qualthar]

Coincidentally I was thinking about the exact same thing the other day. I used this to get my car aligned, and it pulls to the right.

I bet if you flipped all the values left to right, it would work on our roads. Anyone agree?

[CanadianGTR]

The only thing that is different left vs. right is the "full steering lock" figures... aside from that, the values are all the same for left and right.

Or am I reading it COMPLETELY wrong?

And I think the file originated in Australia/NZD (could be wrong again)
There's a Beissbarth in Thomastown and also one in NZD in Auchland.

[Boyscout]

the dealership used the 300ZX settings to do my skyline and it is perfect

[WRick]

hehe where did you go?

I used the machine at work...

John scotti... it's all in there... all settings and everything...

I've never seen this type of alignment machine before...

they use it to align lambos and ferraris and t-rex's and crap...

And my model was in there... nice !

Thanks for pointing that out, I noticed but I figured if I noticed, then an alignment shop would.

Here is a good converter if you want to know the specs for yourself:

And a good page explaining what DMS is compared to Decimal Degrees:
