Default Camber problems? on the R

took the type r in for a alignment today and guy said he can't get the rear passenger side in spec?

He asked if I'd been in a wreck lately I havent, and have had many alignments and never had a problem before.

So I'm assuming something is bent what should I check?

Also how much camber adjustment is there on the type r stock?

What are the oem specs for an alignment on a type r?

thaks for the help.

There is no camber adjustment in the R unless you put in a camber kit. They're cheap and readily available. If you need to add positive camber (reduce negative) then you can add washers, which isn't really that bad of a solution. It's rough, but it can do.

If something's bent, more than likely it's the trailing arm. They're not cheap, since they're the biggest arm in the rear, and they come with the spindle already on them. It's an ITR specific part because of it, and I believe there are two different kinds, depending on the year because of the rear brake mount.

really I dont think it's very far out of whack just a little bit. Really there's know adjustment at all? hmmmm....... I hope the trailing arm isn't bent that would suck.
the car is stock.

Can you type out the alignment specs here? Is the car lowered?
