Smile What a Day!!!!

A very eventful day i had today after the ace the other week a discussion with Fiestaboy our resident guru it became apparent that my car was in desperate need of a Geometry check. So after a few calls and a chat with Ricky and him pointing me towards Hounslow tyres. so a slow plod to them for the check up well what can i say i think from my print out every wheel was pointed the wrong way lol... Excellent service very well equipped and friendly straight in on the hunters machine. asked if any particular setting were desired. did not even bat an eye lid about two seized track rod arms... £50 bargain very very happy with the results car feels fantastic. A Quick call to the Guru and he says that he could bring forward my appointment which was booked in for next Friday for my service and decat and change my current TD05 with play for the freshly serviced one that has been stored in my garage. Whats can i say the man is a genius full marks for workmanship and patience. car now feels brilliant handles and spools up so fast love it.

Thanks Rich (AKA FB Tuning)
Will continue to promote a man with your talents and meticulous workmanship.....

So what settings have they got? I am due a Geo on my car. Was going to book it in with GRD or Curtis at AST/Powerstaion./Litchfields.

But £50 you can't go wrong. Or can you?

Pretty much stock setup but fronts have a fair bit of neg camber but to be honest it was more of a fix to get it all back running the right way. I'm gonna grab fb sometime to set it up the best way but it's been set up all in the green and it handles like it's on rails I have more confidence in it now.

If you what specifics get a copy and take it with you and they will set it up to that spec.
And £50 is fifty quid cheapest I could find and as I said in op don't charge for siezures
