Measurement and adjustment of wheel alignment
if needed (unladen with fuel and lubricants full,
including tire pressure adjustment) Note 1

Љbreak-inЉ, the vehicle’s wheel alignment needs to be measured and adjusted by a GT-R certified dealer at the
recommended intervals.

(balancing of air flow for left and right banks) Note 2
