you could try ashburton motor works. They fitted my suspension and they do the prodrive alignment as standard there.

Ashburton are good, talk to Mervyn he will sort you out and has a good reputation in the trade.

(they are also significantly cheaper than any of the other main scooby dealers in Devon recent 30k service for £278!)

had mine done at TSL, Set the alarm for 4 in the morning and drove for a bit but well worth it.

Bacon butty at the local cafe for breakfast...great stuff.

Get ready for a major change in the way things drive..pre geometry change the scooby drifted to the right on ocassions but I could get to work while asleep (I think most people know the feeling of getting to work but don't remember!).

It also braked to the left and was in danger of harassing the local cyclists.

After Eibachs and geometry the car is a totally different animal....It looks better being lower(OK I'm a tart) but driving it is a different world...........Town driving needs concentration to keep in a straight line but out of town it simply goes wherever you point the steering wheel !

Ashburton Motors are extremely helpful, my problem is that because I have a Japanese import STI they cannot do any servicing for me. Since I do it myself anyway that is alright.

I went to PowerStation to get the anti bump steer mod and full suspension set up done. They will fit any thing you need as well. The car handles like a dream now so I can recommend them highly. It is an easy drive from God's own country up the M5 to Cheltenham of course.

Good Luck

Les
