Hi Guys

Can you recommend a reputable shop that will be able to adjust the camber of my front wheels and take a quick look over to make sure all is okay? Preferably a "skyline specialist" although as you know, these cars as similar to other RWD jap cars

I am located in Menai, Sydney 2234

if its a skyline (which i assume it is) any suspension shop i.e pedders, fulcrum will be able to do it providing you have adjustable upper control arms. otherwise there is no factory camber adjustment for skylines

Skylines don't have Upper Control Arm on the front. You will need adjustable camber tops or the offset pin kit for the strut (which is not a great thing, go the camber tops)

Camber, toe etc. are all part of a proper wheel alignment. Any proper tyre/wheel specialist can do this for you.

Don't listen to this guy, he has no idea. Adjustable camber top would do nothing and it is not possible to fit a camber pin as the strut mounts on a single pin

I think we better clarify with the OP on what model skyline. I am assuming R32 or later which have macpherson strut front end which does not have upper control arms and use 2 bolts to secure hub to strut.

R33 has a double-link setup up front, according to nolathane. no stock camber adjustment.
