so my question, can i run 0.0 rear camber? the car is mainly for cruising the streets, and i doubt i'll be seeing any track time soon.

toe is fine. i'm just looking to see what's best and safe to get the most tire life.
Rear camber factory spec is between -1.18 and -2.17 degrees, with nominal being -1.67 degrees, according to the service manual. So, the shop aligned it properly. This should give you the best wear and safety, as recommended by Nissan. I would keep it like that.
