My problem is my alinement... My car drifts to the left very slightly.. I went to Nissan and had it realined..But it still does it... could it be something else like brakes or did they just not do a proper job on them.. I just want to get a some ideas on what it can be before I start spending money.

Tires can influence "pull". Rotate your tires. If the symptom changes, the tires may be at fault.
Brakes can infuence "pull". A dragging brake (possibly a stuck caliper) may be at fault. Put the car on a lift and spin all four wheels by hand. Both fronts should have the same "feel", and both rears.
A weak spring can influence "pull". A good alignment man would have verified the correct ride height and have caught this if it were the problem.

How would you know if the tires where at fault ? I just have had them rotated. I try to rotate them every 5 thousand miles.. But even so it has been doing this before I rotated them..

Me too...
I have that same problem however mines pulls to the left. A mechanic informed me that it was either my tires (which I hate they are those directional tires.) or my drive train. I am copletely lost as to what effect that would have. If you could answer that I would greatly appreciate that.

Sorry my question was what effect does your drive train have on you car pulling in a certain direction?
