Thread: Negative Camber with Agx/Roadmagnet

Kyb AGX struts with Roadmagnet Springs on a B14

Does everyone with this setup have camber kits?

I got my alignment the other day and my car still pulls left, i forgot to get the exact measurements of my camber but it was also uneven. It was more negative on the right side. Right now my car goes straight with the steering wheel tilted to the right. What am I doing wrong here?

For starters, the alignment shop didn't make sure your steering wheel was straight when they started adjusting toe in the front.

(Car is not a B13 and this is heavily suspension related so I moved this from the Sentra SE-R chassis section to the suspension section.)

LOL sounds like they didn't even try to align it.

Camber in the front on the B14 is not adjustable from the factory, so it should be equal from left to tight sides anyway. No, camber plates should not be necessary to get a good toe alignment, which is what you don't have.

Sorry for the wrong section, thought the 200sx (sentra) ser was also considered in this section. Yeah i should have went to another shop. The thing is though, he did the alignment so im thinking even with my steering wheel tilted when i let it go shouldn't the car still go straight on a smooth flat surface? I guess ill have to go to another alignment shop.

Yes, it should still go straight (even if the wheel isn't straight). There are other reasons other than a bad alignment. A sticking caliper, or being low a couple psi on the tires can make all the difference in the world .

bad tires in the front can cause a pull and make your steering wheel to be off. for example I aligned my car as i work at a shop with an alignment machine and do about 40 alignments a day, gets fun after a while. anyways i did the alignment couldn't do anything about the camber as its not adjustable and didn't have a cam bolt to adjust it, later on a few months down the road i changed tires and what do you know? my steering wheel is off it doesn't mean i have to realign it its the tires pulling one direction causing the steering wheel to be off to make the car go straight. as Ben said it can be numerous things but the shop should've test drove it and make sure it wasn't pulling. my car has over 2.5 degrees of camber in the front and i can make it go straight by changing the shitty tires it has on it without having to redo the alignment. i can talk about alignments all day since on a saturday as we busy as we get i can hammer out close to 50 alignments if not more depending on condition of the vehicles being worked on. there are also a lot of tricks one alignment tech can do to show a good alignment with out really doing any work. just saying. camber not necessarily will be equal on both sides as a lot of things can affect it, like worn out strut mounts or ball joints, tires pressure difference between tires, ride height and so on and so forth.

The other culprit for the pull could be old bushings or even a bent control arm. One good curb shot from a previous owner in the past and that's all it takes.

Caster imbalance will also cause a car to pull to one side. Ours is not adjustable. However, I have seen good alignment shops bend the control arm to return it to its original position.
When caster is adjustable, they usually set slightly more caster on the drivers side to compensate for the crown in the road.
