ESOC Geometry Setup Day @ Skidmarques, Hutton - Sunday 17th March

Essex Subaru Owners Club Geometry Setup Day
Skidmarques, Hutton
Sunday 17th March
Hey guys,

I have organised a geometry & wheel alignment day for us down at Skidmarques in Hutton, Brentwood on Sunday 17th March.
Wheel alignment is one of the biggest factors that affect the way your vehicle drives and handles.

Damien, owner of Skidmarques in Hutton and I have been friends for a long time. He is exceptionally good at what he does as has done my geometry for years.
They can alter camber, castor, toe, track and ride height of the state of the art Hunter 4 wheel laser alignment jig. Choose from mild mannered road geometry to the renound Prodrive specifications. Or have an agressive track setup for that forthcoming track day.

Good geometry will make your car safer, drive smoother, handle better and corner sharper. Not to mention ensure those expensive tyres wear correctly.

We will also have the following benefits on the day:

Full use of Skidmarques premesis
Use of their 2 post ramp/tools for small jobs and demonstrations
Tea & Coffee facilites
Heated waiting room with games console
Unlimited parking
Sandwiches or BBQ depending on numbers

Damien has offered us trade prices on all alignment services for the day and is willing to do deals on tyres and other services.
Donations can also be made to farleighs hospice for some services. http://www.farleigh.org/

Geometry pricing as follows:

Front toe adjust £24
Rear Toe adjust £24
Camber adjust £10 donation to Farleighs Hospice
Castor adjustment £10 donation to Farleighs Hospice

So a full toe, camber, castor setup at only £68!! :D

Top guys there - they checked mine recently for factory standard settings free of charge.

I need to speak to one of you geometry kings to work what I should do with mine.

We can swap tyres and do small jobs on their ramps too for donations to the charity.
Traders are also welcome to bring stands, etc.
Hopefully we can get a good turnout for this. £68 for a full geometry setup is an absolute bargain. These guys are next to Mountune/Revolve and setup touring cars. They sure know what they're doing. :)

frayz 11 February 2013 07:11 PM

Also if you guys want to fit camber bolts, updated roll bars then this is an ideal time to do it.
Ill be on standby to help with fitting too if any of you need it. :)

Bargain ! Damien is a good lad :) I'll be there :)

Budgie 11 February 2013 07:50 PM

Nice one Frayz
I would have come along but....
I will be at Cadwell testing my geo to the max

frayz 11 February 2013 07:59 PM

Pete, if the MSOC boys would like to join us then theyre more than welcome.
Feel free to post this over there if you wish :thumb:

Essexdon 11 February 2013 08:52 PM

Nice one Fray Ill be up for it bar the impending new arival is ok.

Been wanting to get the scooby set up a level for the normal Jet Tyres wheel checks etc.

Spec'c'57 11 February 2013 08:56 PM

I will let them know
Mentioned it to Moley today and he may join you, he needs his done for trackdays this year

frayz 12 February 2013 05:56 PM

I've dropped a thread over your way. :)

Phil 12 February 2013 06:18 PM

Bugger I'm with Baldy at Cadwell otherwise I would have bought the colt

DantheMan2605 12 February 2013 06:38 PM

Will keep an eye on this, need to check with work if I can make it.

Geometry was done on my car before I bought it. Would be ideal to see if I can lift it back up as I have new splitter I can't use due to my sloping driveway.

frayz 12 February 2013 06:56 PM

Get your name down if you can Dan. I'd like to try and get as many along to this as possible. Damien and the team are a superb group of people that really go out of their way to offer a grea service.
4 wheel alignment as this level is usually double the price offered. :)

Milamber 12 February 2013 07:07 PM

Do they do rwd set ups

frayz 12 February 2013 07:30 PM

Yes Chris. All cars are welcome.
If its adjustable on the car, they can set it up :)

OurWRX 12 February 2013 10:25 PM

Went over there late last year, great bloke and as you say, knows his stuff.

Strangely enough I have Just got together a new set of front and rear struts and a set of springs, plus the adjustable camber bolts so I will try my best to get them fitted just before the 17th March so I can get the full set-up.

Could someone please add me to the list, thanks.

Paul:)

You'd be amazed at what can be done with the oem stuff Ron. Well worth a check. If they don't alter it, you won't pay anything :)
