Suspension and Wheel Alignment

* Check the steering and suspension system and other
links for loose and/or damaged parts.

* Measure and adjust the wheel alignment. Contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer to adjust the wheel align-
ment to the recommended setting for normal driving.

Wheels and Tires

* Check tire wear and cracking.

* Inspect the tire sidewall for damage.

* Check the tire pressure and adjust the pressure as
necessary when the tires are cold. (See previous page’s
charts)

* Check that the wheel nuts are not stripped. Check if
there is no deformation on the contact surface of the
wheel nuts.

* Make sure the wheel nuts are tight.

* Make sure the drive shaft nuts are tight.

* Check wheel hub run out and that the wheel rotates
smoothly without any friction. Check these with the tires
removed whenever an inspection is performed with the
vehicle jacked up.

* Make sure the tire has not slipped on the wheel causing
the assembly to be out of balance. The reference marks on
the tire and wheel should be aligned. If the reference
marks are not aligned, the tire has slipped on the wheel.
Have the wheels/tires rebalanced. Make sure the old
reference marks are erased and new reference marks are
applied to the wheel and tire. When installing new tires on
wheels, make sure new reference marks are applied to the
wheels and tires.

* Make sure that the TPMS sensor installation nut and the
sensor valve are tight and there is no nitrogen leak.

Brakes

* Check for the heat deterioration of the brakes and parts
around the brakes.

* Check the condition of the brake pads and disc rotors
and replace them as necessary.
