S13 Subframe swap... wheel now off-centered! HELP!

Hey all

I just completed the s13 rear subframe swap into my z31.
Here are the complete list of parts I used...

S13 240sx Subframe
Stance solid rear bushings
GEs Subframe Swap Kit
GEs z32/q45 upright coilover brackets
Q45 rear aluminum uprights
Z32 n/a brake cables
27mm Mazda RX8 sway bar
PowerTrix Ultra-Lites
PowerTrix Multi-Link Arms with QA1 Joints
Poly bushings everywhere
B14 Sentra front BallJoints for the rear +1mm
350z built Nismo GT Pro 10 clutch pack CLSD with 31 spline custom axle stubs
Z32/q45 6x1 axle combo - 30 spline
Custom aluminum driveshaft with oversized u-joints
Z31 3" CM echast with Dual-Tip MagnaFlow Muffler
370z 14" rear rotors
SRT8 rear 4 pot Brembo calipers

The problem I am now facing is that driver side wheel is too far back towards the rear, while the passenger is perfectly centered.
I have cross measured multiple points of the subframe installation, and all within 1/16" from both sides... I am 99.999999% confident that my measuring and welding was good.

The only thing I can think of is that the RLCA is bad or tweaked.

Here are some pics of the passenger side...

You can clearly see the wheel is set back further. I have the traction rod set at its shortest position.
