birdman make sure you dont have the factory specs for the sport package. the nismo has a different factory alignment spec sheet. it should say nismo somewhere at the top

birdman make sure you dont have the factory specs for the sport package. the nismo has a different factory alignment spec sheet. it should say nismo somewhere at the top of that form you have. if memory serve me well the rear camber on the nismo is a min of -1.4, your sheet says -1.2.

does anyone else notice that when coming to a stop, the car wants to drastically pull to the left.
and also, it seems when just driving down a straight road the car really likes to wander, like a drunk is driving the car. is this all due to the alignment specs or what? |

check em all. id start off by asking you, do you have matched tires? (front and rears are the same brand/model). if yes, get your wheels rebalanced. if this doesnt fix it, check your alignment, your toe could be out of wack |

Guys I have noticed as you lower the Z that the ideal Toe for the rear is ~.20 total toe (IN). This helps mitigate camber wear and also helpswith corner turn in response.

At the setting I have, my tires wear is even all around. I have yet to stop at the alignment shop once again and check the Nismo settings.
