R34 Front Susp.

[illusiVe]

Err

mechanical wise my = big big n00b.

short story: Went touge and hit a wall, instead of pannels being damaged, i had full opposite lock on which meant the rim/tyre hit the wall damaging the front right suspension.

Power steering = leaking

Left susp = fine (points directly forward with the wheel in its norm position, but the right tyre points inward (making it bitch of a time to get home @ 30kmph)

basically nothing looks TOO damaged underneith from what i can see.

All i want to do is adjust the right hand side tyre to face straight again. not sure if this is a steering arm with a nut on it, even though it has thread which would (i think) bring the wheel back into alignment, it doesnt seem to move up the thread (probably got distroyed =\)

Sounds like it is more than just adjusting.I would tajke it to a wheel alignment place to have it checked.More than like ly something has been bent if it the tryre is pointing inwards.

probably your lower control arm is bent, that normally takes the hit when you smack a rim. a decent wheel alignment place will be able to confirm

what sort of race track is a too-gay?

a not so legal one.
