S14 rear passenger side
Last year i drifted into a curb in the rain. The camber looked positive after that. Had to adjust my arm all the way negative just to get -1.5 degrees. Had myself and an alignment tech check to see whats bent.. We couldnt figure it out. I tried changing out the lca. Then when i was doing my brake pads i noticed the caliper wont line up over the pad like its supposed to.
This is the side thats fine.

This is the bent side. See how the caliper fits all funny over the pad.. And thats lined up with the bolt holes. Now what could be bent? Caliper bracket or even the knuckle? Before i tear it all down i was seeing if this has happened to anyone before.
