I'm going to drop with nismo s-tune suspension and I have 19" Volks. Can you recommend a trustworthy place here in Houston where they have done modified cars so I won't have to freak out if they did the alignment right or may scratch my wheels. I've done the search, but no consensus place here in Houston... Thanks...

 

Go to Awesome Z up on 59 North.
Talk to Doug. Call him at: 281-219-0015
4004 Trenton Rd.
Houston
Tell him ZCarDave sent you.

He's got a top-of-the-line alignment machine and knows how to use it...especially for custom setups (he does our racecar setups).
He is a custom showcar owner and builder, so he understands the importance of "not scratching something" !

He's done quite a few Nismo Suspension setups, along with several other varieties.
I have 100% confidence in him.

Thanks!! That was one place that was listed of two that came up when I did the search...hey, zcardave...you know from Stephen from Sterling McCall right?...yeah, I bought my car from him...very cool guy...thanks again...

 

how much does that place charge?

 

Awright !!!
Glad to hear you went through Stephen....he's my #1 go-to guy as far as salesmen go ! I absolutely KNOW that he took good care of you.
I've lost count of how many Z-buyers I've sent him...and he always treats'em right.
Thanks for the report
If you're happy, that makes me reeeal happy too !

For an alignment?
Sorry to say that I don't have a clue.
He and I do so many favors for each other, I can't tell you the last time he charged me for anything.
Give him a call and ask him. He's a nice guy too !

I took my car to SW alignment. Paid $50.

if ur car is slammed like mine, take it to abosoulte suspension. they have special ramps for lowered vehicles. 75-95 bucks for alignment, but the best on handling cars!

 

Hey bro, where is that place again? I was think about taking the beast to get aligned today. It looks like the suspension has "settled" already. You got a # or something? I might leave work early today and head up there.
Holla.

 

If you head out early, let me know. I may know of another place that is getting an alignment rack today. The ex-head suspension guy from Absolute works at this other place now. Both are right down the street from where I work!

I don't know if your suspension is settled. I would give it a little longer!

And Absolute charges $70 for alignment. They did mine!

 

u gonna have to wait a lil longer val for ur suspension to settle. i would wait it out just a lil longer my friend! i emailed u back with the number to that other place so hit me up

 

You guys think so? I've been driving her all week. I guess I wanted to get it aligned because I might take it to Brenham tomorrow morning. I was worried about premature wear on the tires. What do you guys think? Ok to take to Brenham before getting aligned? It's not pulling or anything. Hell the camber doesn't even seem off, but I'm sure it is somewhat out of alignment. Holla.

 

I looked up Absolute on the net. It's out there. But I'd drive the distance for quality service.

 

LOL, but shiizznnitt LOL.
did u call the other place that i gave u?
hit me back

 

You will be OK. Mine didn't really settle until about a month. Byron said, HOLY CRAP your car settled. LOL! Don't waste your money now. Wait a little longer.

 

I got the lifetime allignment for just over a hundred bucks at Firestone on Westheimer by Galleria. They use the red blinking optical thingy to allign it.

 

can they do 19" s , are they careful, and is it accurate?

 

tom that is were i got my alignment done at. i paid a special at the time for 85 bucks lifetime! they are really careful with ur car , but it all depends on which firestone. hit me back and i will let u know which firestone i got mine done at. only issue is if they can get u on the rack. i can't get on the rack anymore due to my body kit. so that is why i got the abousolute next. . all good just holla back!

 

I'll give it a couple more weeks to settle. I hope it settles without me having to drive it that much though. You guys know I only get a few miles a week on the beast. Ha!

 

It should settle without you driving it. I don't drive my car everyday anymore either.
