Hi Folks,

I have an 03 and I am getting new tires this week. I would like to get a proper alignment done to reduce tire feathering. Does anyone have any recommendations of shops that are aware of the 350z issue..

 

stealership aside? I suggest you go to a good performance shop like Advance Power House or Speedstar.

 

I have an '03 also and installed a camber kit to correct the problem before the alignment.

Try KHF for the camber kit...ask for Alan.
170 Esna Park Dr., Unit 10,
Markham. (Steeles and Woodbine),
905-470-9000

For alignment,
Gilman Auto Service,
1940 Ellesmere Rd., Unit 6,
Scarborough. (Ellesmere and Bellamy)
416-289-1388

 

^Gilman may be too much for this guy's regular alignment, they do race alignments and are not cheap.

Cheaper alternatives are Vincent's Auto Service, Simone's, or APH

 

Gilman is $80 for 18" rims.

 

I had work done (camber) at Gilman a while back on my 95 lowered accord - it was stolen

I have the stock 18" rims. I will give him a call.

 

Thanks, what did you pay for the camber kit? Is there any point in me doing an alignment without a camber kit, since i have an '03?

 

Unless you correct the problem, you will ruin the new tires. I would suggest you call Alan for the latest pricing of the camber kit. Mention that "Uncle Steve" referred you. He used to own a 350Z.

 

ok thanks. is it fair to say that there is no point (or at least minimal gain) in an alignment on an 03 without an aftermarket camber kit?

 

Correct. Ask Alan for his advice.

 

last time i checked i don't think gilman's can do alignment for 19"+ rims. I could be wrong though.

 

Hey steve, haven't seen you online in a long time.
