cheap alignments
There is a guy working for some dealership advertising alignments for $25.
A bit more if your car is lowered but that is the going rate for stockers... I won't post it up here but PM for contact info.

We couldn't get the top bolt loose on the front to adjust camber so I have -1.2 on one side, +.4 on the other. Aside from that everything else is where I wanted it. Kinda frustrating though, but nothing he could have done about it. I'm going to work on that bolt with some penetrating oil and a blow torch if necessary, then get back for the rest of the allignment. I wasn't very social, and probably seemed kinda cranky since I'm getting over food poisoning, so let him know I'm sorry if I sounded curt.
With a little toe in for the rear, the car is much more predictable under braking, and no more "jdm type-r" drifting out of corners.
yah he called me and said it was a b to get your camber aligned.
when i had mine done i went there a week later to get my steering wheel aligned (i was being anal) and he still did it... I'm sure he didn't see you as a mean person, he mentioned doing an alignment on some relative of yours... cool, two alignments in a row....

The place I usually go for alignments, Dallas Frame & Alignment near Harry Hines, is a Monday-Friday operation, which makes getting there a pain for me. Does your person work weekends, perchance?
I got some yummies in the mail last week, and an alignment would be good after install.

It was alright, but I didn't end up with the exact numbers I wanted. I ended up with -1.9 degrees rear camber, but wanted -1.7. He said -1.9 was as close as he could get.
That's strange. What toe did you get in the rear? Are both sides at -1.9 camber? If the cam bolts are maxxed out, something is bent.Originally Posted by tmanAg08

I thought it was very odd, because it started out with less camber than that. I don't know why he couldn't get less from it. Toe was set at just a hair over 0 IN, front and rear.
