Alignment Issues

[Stiky]

Any tips on doing alignments on my R32 GTS-T. Right now I can't adjust camber so I will pull either way, but I need to center my wheel. Are our cars equipped with self centering steering wheels? Also any tips to align a HICAS equipped car?

Any help would be appreciated, as for my alignment specs, I'm running -0.5* of toe all around. But I can not get my steering wheel to be 100% straight because of my camber issues I believe.

Thats not camber, thats toe that runs your wheel straight.
Camber is the angle of the wheel, you could have 10 degrees negative or positive camber and still drive straight.

You need to adjust both front tie rods in either direction to compensate for the steering wheel being out.

I set up a long piece of steel on jackstands the whole length of the car and line it up by measuring x number of inches off the hubs. Then measure from the front and back of the wheel too the steel and set your toe that way. Before you start just set your wheel dead straight and base everything around that. I have had very good luck with this, drives perfectly straight down the road.

As for Hicas its the same as the front, just tie rods.

or go get an alignment at a shop. you might try the alignment specs from a 240, or i think the specs are somewhere on this site too

Go to your Nissan dealer. That's where I got mine done. The specs were on their machine or you can download them. The ones I downloaded and the ones in their computer were virtually identical.
A four wheel alignment with the best service I've ever recieved from a dealer was $112!

I do my own alignments on our machine at work. It's a really nice snap on unit. I found out the 240sx is the wrong base for doing an alignment. A 300zx is as close to the R chassis a possible.

I was told I am unable to properly align my wheels because of a seized camber adjustment as well. They told me I needed to replace my rear LCA's, does anyone know if this is correct or can I do anything else?
