To adjust camber you use the two bolts that connect the strut to the knuckle. the top one is eccentric so you turn it and it'll move the top of the tire.....that is if there is an eccentric bolt in there. I don't believe they came stock with them prolly aftermarket/dealer item.

wow. sounds like a real stupid nissan to me.

the strut is the damper for the coil spring. if u cant find the strut, that would explain your alignment problem.

I recently bought a pulsar that did not have the correct elongated hole in it for the camber adjustment. The struts were aftermarket and I modified them for camber by drilling out the hole. hope this helps.......
