hey guys i was wondering after you guys got your car align. did it drift to the right or to the left at all? or was it straight dead in the center?

im lowered on 350z h techs and i just got it align today but its drifting to the right now? it never did that before when i had the steering wheel straight, it was normal and in the middle, no drift at all. i have to have the steering wheel tilt to the left a little to keep it from drifting to the right.

if you guys can help me out i would greatly appreciate it. THANK VERY MUCH!

 

post up your alignment specs and we can be more helpful.

FRONTS

left / right / Specified Range
-1.7 ___ Camber ___ -1.6 | -1.2 to 0.3
8.8 ___ Caster ____ 8.3 | 7.3 to 8.8
0.04 ___ Toe ____ 0.06 | 0.00 to 0.08
0.6 ____ SAI ____ 0.8 | 4.2 to 5.7
-1.1 __ Included angle ___ -0.8 | 3.0 to 6.0


REARS

left / right / Specified Range
-2.0___Camber___ -1.8 | -1.9 to -0.9
0.42 ___Toe____ 0.12 | 0.00 to 0.22

 

the 0.42 on the left rear toe will definitely cause your car to pull, that's waaay to far out of spec.

damn... it was at 0.41, why did it go up to 0.42? and before it didnt do this?

 

if it was at .41 before then they did nothing to fix it. Seems like they didnt even try. I'd be more worried about the toe settings than the camber.

so what do you think i should do?

 

Take it back and have them do it the right way..

im guessing if that was the best they could do... i would have to invest in a camber kit? or could they keep adjusting it?

 

ym g35 pulled as well, i m still waiting for my camber kits, then i will take it to algin.

 

Your camber is off to I would try to get it over -1......from my exp. anyting under -1 the car seems a little squirly

 

i took it back to the place where i got the alignment at and they told me the rear has nothing to do with the steering of the car. only the fronts. im getting them re align today

 

G/L with that

 

Lol... It's only 2am, but it's the funniest thing I heard all day.... "Doesn't matter how angled this tire is, the car ONLY follows the front wheels!"

 

Absolutely incorrect. The left rear toe is messing up the thrust angle.

I'll bet if someone follows your car it will probably look like the rear wheels are not tracking the fronts.

I would not let these guys touch my car. Find a shop with a Hunter 4 wheel aligner.
