I know its not really maint this question but unsure where to put it so I am sorry if in wrong place,
My troubles are that when i am driving my skyline it pulls to the left, it has passed two MoT's with it pulling so i dont think its major, but its just getting to me now. It all started when i hit a pile off snow on the land hand front wheel!!
I have been under the car several times and nothing is bent or that, i am thinking something might have collapsed in a straight line.
Does anyone have any ideas!?

You need the geometry measured, not just basic alignment.

Had it all done, cost me a bomb as well and it still pulls, tyre pressure etc are all checked n sorted, and brakes have been replaced (discs n pads) and calipers are free moving etc. This is why its now starting to bug me. Thinking of just replacing things and seeing if it goes away lol

try and get to tony he has a hawk eye machine and will be able to find if anythings bent/misaligned, esp if all youve had done is a laser alignment, all that does is make sure the wheels are pointing in the right direction, camber or castor angle could be off?
