I had a tire blow out today, the rear drivers side. I spun out at about 60mph in to a ditch. the rear pass. side tire is now at a angle. not much but you can see it. can it be fixed easy with a aligment at a shop or did i break some thing?

depends on how much, ft is 45 degrees out then you broke something...

I'd say something was bent. There is not much adjustment on the rear of a Z31, just a little bit of toe and no camber at all unless you add a camber kit. Depending on what bent or twisted, I'd say replace the rear subframe. Those should be fairly easy to find, all Z31s used basically the same rear frame, with only the drive components as being different. As long as there is no subframe mount damage (Where the subframe mounts to the body) then you should be ok.

The 1/2 shaft has nothing to do with the position of the suspension, if the suspension moves , it will change orientation. I doubt the 1/2 shaft was damaged, you can easily rotate it and check it out.
