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 dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
