Or do I have a REALLY bad camber issue with my right *passenger* wheel :eek3:

Dunno if its just the picture, but the wheel looks alot more tweaked than the left wheel.

It looks a tad off, but my S13 looked like the pass side had more camber. As did my friends. i thinks its the way the fenders were made.

I think your left is off. Double check lower control arm and tension rod.

i think the shadow is making it look different in the pic. i'd say they are the same.

Doesn't look that off to me
take it to tire kingdom / discount tire / etc for a free alignment check
see what the camber actually is.

Yeah, even though you don't have rucas, you can still adjust your camber with the eccentric bolt. Sometimes if you tap a curb or so it can move it a little and change your camber.

i don't know how you can evaluate camber from that pic, you can barely see the tires

Yeah the right passenger tire seems more sunken in with more camber,like you threew on spacers only for the left side. My car is F'd up too. Tried putting a front strut tower bar and my passenger shock mount tower is pushed sort of diagonally 1 inch back. Plus my right front tire has alot more camber, so I have to set the left camber almost max negative to look even! Gotta check arms and crap...I hope it won't be that bad... My frame is pretty messed up too. Jesus, thats what I get for rushing my first car. Hope your car isn't too bad, replace your arms n rods first. Like someone said, you won't know till you change the parts out.

The previous owner had an accident on that side. Only the rad support was bent. My passenger headlight does not line up correctly with the hood. It sinks a little bit. Ive never felt any pull, but did notice a bit of unusual wear on that tire. I just chalked it up as a lowered car *smacks forehead*
This is the first time I noticed this though. I was sorting through my autoX pics and was like "um.......something is not right about this picture"

You cant see the inside of the tire cause of the shadow so you might have just been low on air?

yeah but would'nt the tire just look droppy at the base and not cause camber?
I feel your pain Kouki....=*(
