FC Rear Toe Adjustment

In my FC I have a problem with rear toe adjustment.

I have just installed Racing Beat DTSS Eliminators, have Tein Adjustables everything else up the back is stock. When I took it for a wheel alignment my right rear side was toe'ing in by 12mm. We got it to 3mm toe in then ran out of adjustment, the other side was fine but we set it at 3mm toe in to keep both sides even.

What I want to know is whats most likely caused the massive toe in on the right hand side and what I can do to get it as close to 0 as possible.

From a visual check nothing seems to be bent or out of place, everything else is ok except the toe.

Any help would be awesome, I have a wheel alignment sheet I can post up if that would help.

Cheers,

It will be interesting to see what you find. 12mm is way out of spec!
Not sure why you wouldn't be able to alter the toe settings any more with the adjustment bolt though.
Here are some typical toe settings for different driving styles(RWD only);
Agressive Street= Front:1.58mm Rear: 3.175mm
Weekend Lapper= Front:0 Rear: 3.175mm
Racer Only/Serious Drifter= Front:0 Rear: 0 to -3.175mm
FSM Spec= Front: ± 3mm Rear: ± 3mm
