Default How Does This Alignment Look

Just got my Z back from having the feathering TSB done for the second time, now at 20,000 miles. I did not get new tires because Nissan was balking about my Pilot Sports A/S not being OEM, even though Nissan authorized them as my first feathering replacement. Whatever, at least I got them to do the cross rotation and alignment.

Here are the alignment specs. All numbers are in degrees. The printout they gave me does not show the specified ranges, so can anyone tell me if it looks good. The left rear toe does not look right to me, nor do I understand why the camber changed up front. I thought the front camber was not adjustable.

Oh, btw, they dinged my paint above the left front tire. Me not at all happy about that and will be discussing it with them tomorrow.

An expert should be able to set a 0.000000 degree thrust angle at least 0.01 yours is 13 times too much........RT rear camber and what are your caster and SAI readings?

I started a similar thread looking for input and didn't get too far...but maybe I can help you since at least my printout shows min. and max. values for each.

Interpret my Alignment

Looks to me like your RR Camber was fine, but now it's out and your thrust angle looks extreme.
