I have a R32 gts4 and one of the front wheels is closer to the wheel arch causing it to rub over bumps. According to my alignment report both wheels have exactly the same castor however one wheel is definately closer to the side. I can fit two fingers behind the front left tyre between the tyre and the guard however only one and about a half fingers behind the front right wheel and the guard. This is the problem.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Thanks in advance! :P

Have you got coilovers? Is the ride height different each side slightly? (front or rear)

Have the guards been modified at all? (maybe one has been 'rolled' and the other hasn't?)

Sorry forgot to mention I do have tein adjustable coilovers, could possibly but very minimal, guards do not appear to be rolled.

Here are wheel alignment results

Front castor left and right are both 4 degrees 24 minutes

camber left is negative 2 degrees right is negative 1 degree 54 minutes

toe is all 0

Rear

Camber left wheel is 2 degrees 24 minutes

right wheel is 2 degrees 48 minutes

both to is 0.01"

SAI left is 16 degrees 35 minutes and right is 16 degrees 16 minutes

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
