Wheel Alignment
Front Wheel Alignment Adjustment Procedure (cont'd)
NOTE:
NSX four wheel alignment requires the use of equip-
ment designed specifically for four wheel indepen-
dent suspensions and capable of immediate
feedback.
The ride height is very important for setting the align-
ment. For every 10 mm of change in the front ride
height, the camber will change approximately 10
minutes.
The front alignment settings on the NSX are
interactive.
A slight change in toe will dramatically change the
camber.
1. Drive the car on the alignment rack.
2. Check the tire pressure and ride height as described on page 18 - 6.
3. Center the steering wheel.
Toe
1. Measure the length of the threaded section on
the right and left rack ends.
Standard: 11 mm for shoulderDifference between right and left: 1 mm max. 2. If the measurement is out of the specification,
loosen the locknut and adjust properly.
