    Wheel wants to go left at 100kmh

    Got an alignment done and it fixed the issue of it pulling right. But a new problem has occurred at 100kmh the wheel want to be left a few degrees, and it doesn't feel very stable. What could that be?
    edit: the camber alignment on the rear is 1.5 and 2.0 could the uneven rear alignment cause that?

      Take it to a Nissan dealer and get the to align it to factory specs , they will also check tires to make sure they are unevenly worn , squared etc if you mention your problem . The alignment jigs that Nissan have actually have the data for r32 r33 and r34 now

        I did get it aligned a Big O to one of their machines which does have the specs for R32 GT-R. When I got it both the rears were at 2.0 degrees. At the shop they wanted to bring it to factory specs and they wanted to adjust it to 1.5. The problem they mentioned is they can't adjust the camber of one of the wheels (nut it stuck?). So they left it at 2.0 degrees and set the other one at 1.5.

        Would having the rear camber at 1.5 and 2.0 cause the car to wander at higher speeds?

        Would new rear camber arms rectify the issue of one not being able to be adjusted?

        To temprily rectify the issue should I put them both to 2.0 degrees

          If your car is lowered then you may have to install adjustable arms , I did .

          If it's all OEM then you need to resolve the stuck adjuster . Don't compromise the life of your tires or the handling of the vehicle because something is seized and you try to compensate it somewhere else .

          Tackle the root of the problem properly, fix the seized component, and realign it .

            A car will pull to the side with the most positive camber. And 1/2 a degree is pretty big in alignment terms. Most machine deal with 1/100 of a degree. Whatever component is seized you need to either replace or set the rears back to 2degrees
