So I hit this huge lip in 520 a few weeks back. After I hit it there were at least 4 other cars on the side of the road with low profile tires. I ended up bending my rim and knocking my car out of alignment. $210 later and my rim is fixed but I still need to get my car aligned (it pulls to the right slightly).

If it was my truck I'd just take it to Les Schwab. Is this a good idea for my Z or should I take it to a shop that actualy knows about my car? Can anyone make any recomendations in the seattle area?

alignment by laser and computer controlled adjustment with printout of exact camber degrees go to car nutz in Bellevue next to parkplace around the side. Its 100 bucks tho but they do a good job

 

$65 at Stage performance in Kirkland, as I posted in your other thread as well. Does the same as the one at car nutz.

 

I'm taking my car to a friend of Hai in Mount Vernon. I know it's hella far but I want to go there because he charges. More important he is willing to align it to my specific specs and allow me to sit inside the car while it's being done to adjust to it to perfect spec while I'm driving.

 

firestone has lifetime alignment for like 125$ i think...

 

And they won't get the alignment right once in the lifetime of the car, and probably damage any aftermarket wheels while they are at it

 

His SN here is rosscoe and he owns a Z also. Did a great job on my alignment, and set it to the exact specs I asked for, and let me sit in the car so that the static camber accounted for the normal drive height with me in it. Send him a PM and he can hook you up!

 

Weren't there a couple TSBs issued by Nissan that provided updated aligment specs? I haven't had any problems with uneven tire wear or road noise. Would it be worth it hunt down the TSB(s) that modify the aligment specs, or should I not bother and just go to one of these places and ask them to align my car?

Hey thats me .There have been sevral updates to the specs to help with the growl/tire wear problem,these newer specs stopped my issues.Will be glad to help out if I can

 

Alvin do still have an exhaust to sell?

 

sure do bro

 

x alignments = x.xx exhaust

 

haha well I don't need that many alignments but I sure do need one! Really need to correct my toe but I need to get off my lazy *** and install the camber kit first haha

 

Whitch kits were you going to install ,maybe we can work out a partial trade that is good for both. I have the ability and tools and shop with hoist.

 

Does nissan dealership do alignment too?

 

I just had my two front tires replaced by the Dealer but they did not performed a wheel alignment. I am looking for a good Front Alignment Shop in the Woodstock Illinois area. Any suggestions surely would be appreciated.
thanks

 

So you thought asking people in the NW was a good idea?

 

know this guy in Las Vegas

 

Uh, not sure if I'd go somewhere that a banned person recommends but how is this place? Not really up for a Mount Vernon trip.

Any other decent places at a resonable price?

 

Just go to rosscoe in mt vernon, its worth it, only other place I would trust are truline or group2 motorsports, both which charge ~$140
