There are several ways to adjust "unadjustable" things. For instance HEIGHT is an important alignment adjustment. Shims can be added to change castor. Toe is easy, just turn the tie rod ends but that also affects centering so maybe you have to turn both tie rod ends. Don't forget rear alignment (thrust angle) as that has a dramatic affect on the steering. Tire pressure can affect steering and alignment. Weight distribution affects alignment. My point is there are many things that can affect alignment, many ARE adjustable. Most cars are set up for a normal? weighted driver and no passengers 1/2 tank of gas and no luggage. If you change these assumptions dramatically i.e. adding a lot of weight as either passengers and or luggage you change the alignment. In airplanes this is known as weight and balance and it is something you always keep in mind. On cars it is less important but still important. The Delorean was engineered with small changes in weight and balance being a 2 person car with limited carrying capacity. This means you can quickly find yourself outside the allowable limits if you overload the car.
