Front camber adjust
the eccentrics are not a precise device. just set them to the same direction on both sides, and do the rest with the camber plates. the plates may wind up being set differently obviously based on where you wind up with the bolts. all that matters is the final measurement.

So...you finally got an alignment, and it's nearly dead on. But the camber plates don't look aethetically pleasing to your eyes because they're off side to side, causing you to be curious again? I know Akuma sets a few cars up for road racing, so they must have some decent idea on how essentric bolts and camber plates work. I think you need to take the car to a body shop and have things checked out.

please end this useless repetitive thread
Already did this they ran some tape measurements and said the car was sqaure. Wheelbase was measured including the front middle and rear, along with anbunch of measurements i took. I dont see how a small collision into a snow bank could have done anything sorry if im being ignorant. I have confirmation from 3 people that know this car and are racers that say it was cosmetic
If they DO point to the engine then great it is all good and you have a difference side to side on the camber plates. Good ..i hope you and your car have a long easy life together and nothing breaks down the road.
For your information, even seeming minor "small collisions" can bend tie rod ends, shift the lower control arm, tweak the control arm mounts, damage lower ball joints and damage axles and axle bearings..but i hope not for you.... honestly we do.
EvoM doesnt need your endless repetitive posts and seeming inability to grasp simple mechanical concepts
Do not post again, please
Mods please close this as the OP isnt taking advice and keeps endlessly repeating himself
Listen to WRC-LVR and heel2toe.
The arrows on your camber bolts should either both point inwards or both point outwards. If they are not, that sucks. I'm **** and would like everything to be set nearly equal at the camber plate and the hub but at this point just be happy you have a decent alignment.
