Rereading your original post... sounds like adjustments were made to raise the car and add some rake. That would definitely throw things off. Adjusting for visual wheel gaps impacts things too. These cars are not always square.
The difference in spring collar heights will impact camber that much. Lower the left side to get more negative camber. Raise the right to decrease negative camber. May get close to spec with just those adjustments. Raising and lower the rear has a similar effect.
My car is aligned and corner balanced. Set front camber to -1.9 by adjusting the collars and adding some e36 shims. Rear is -1.4 using adjustable camber arms. Car tracks straight and handles great.
Be careful when adjusting rear toe. Rear trailing arm bracket to frame bolt torque is only ~18 ft-lbs. Mine were likely over torqued and snapped. Here's a thread on that fix... Backdraft - broken bolt on rear trailing arm bracket |
