Lowered my car a couple weeks back and was waiting for the springs to settle before I got an alignment. With my Kuruma bumper and Impul sides, the car sits pretty low, so getting onto an alignment rack seemed like it might be an issue. I went to West Covina Nissan today and had an alignment done. They have a Hunter alignment machine that is level with the floor, so no driving up a ramp - load off my mind . They got it done in about an hour, and brought everything back into spec except the camber (which is only slightly off, and unfixable since I don't have any aftermarket adjustable parts). Overall, great service and price, and very cool dealership/shop area.

I got mine done at WCN this past week too.

I'm way out in the front. too much negative camber. (-2.4 left and -1.8 right)
Im barely in on the rear, and my camber arms are set at full positive adjustment. (-1.8 left and -1.9 right)
everything else looks decent.

I'm lowered on basics and have spc front A-arms and spc rear camber arms and toe bolts. They even raised me 0.25" and still I can't get into spec. How low are you? I have 1.5 finger gap between fender and tire. I rub when there are ppl in the back seat.

How low are you in the rear? I cant imagine that you are any lower than I am - I'm on the lowest setting with the collars removed. That's a zero finger-gap in the front and rear..

With the SPC kit in the rear...I am able to get back to -1.0 (but I chose to go with -1.5).

The fronts are a different story for me. Did you install the spacers in the front? If so, you should not have a problem getting back into spec.

I'm not even all the way down in the rear. I have a finger and half gap front and rear. I don't have the spacers installed in the front. I was told i prolly wouldn't need them so opted not to. and if i do install the spacers, i have to get another alignment. damn!

They have specials for forum members - you have to mention that you are from the forum and saw the post from Justin or Heri. Besides alignment specials they have transmission and oil change discounts I think.
