I'm considering swapping the suspension (prodrive springs) for coilovers in the near future so need to be aware of a good wheel alignment service with experience of Subarus and top mount camber adjustment. Somewhere in the south Essex area would be preferable. I've used Elite before but would prefer somewhere more specialised.
Who has any recommendations.

Last I heard they didn't have the alignment gear in house any more. May be wrong though.

You could be right. When Knowlesy left I think the unit where the ramp was, was given up?

Zak will see you right. I couldn't stop grinning once he'd done the geometry. I went for track spec settings. I keep meaning to get my current classic booked in with him for it.

Knowing what it's like driving Zaks RA Matt I can imagine exactly what yours felt like with Track settings on the geometry

I really wish I hadn't sold my RA. My current STi would need thousands spend on it to get it to feel the same. I keep meaning to twist his arm to let me have a go of his RA. Trouble is I might not give the keys back lol.

Wrong, my last service included an alignment.

As I said I may be wrong. Would still rather use Zak for anything Scoob related.

Tis a bit of an animal Matt.

APs on the front, 888s, very rear biased handling. Goes sideways V easily

Quite fun really. Sure Zak wouldn't mind you having a go

nothing wrong with elite when it comes to alignment...good price, and a very good job imo.

only other very specialised place i know is TDi, but you probably wont belive me when i tell you they quoted £400+ to align a set of coilovers on a civic type R, so god knows how much the price would be on a scooby.

Nope! Phoned Paul and he confirmed that he no longer has the facility.

Phoned Mocom last Wed. Inevitable answer machine. I left contact details but no reply. I guess he doesn't need the work!

I keep getting told about Elite, How much should you expect to pay for a full set up

Let us know how you get on John would be good for people to have more options in the county than the usual mantra

They're ok but left to their own devices the settings can be hit and miss. It's best to research what you want and go prepared with the settings you want

Went there today - nothing out of the ordinary, to be honest. If you've got your favoured place, then stick to it!
