Anyone recommend somewhere for a full geometry check. I live in W Yorks but travel up to Cumbria (Bottom en of Windermere) fairly regular.

 

I got mine done at troys in leeds... but they got someone in to do it.. and I wasnt impressed with them... what about the subaru garage??

Andy,

I got my geometry set to Prodrive on my MY00 by Mac's Garage (Ilkley) Ltd, Tel: 01943 608892. The price was about £80.

This made a massive improvement to my MY00 (a lot less understeer) but it still doesn't seem to handle as good as my old MY97.

Cheers,

Ian.

When you say Prodrive I presume you mean about 1 and a half negative camber front and rear and about 0'03 ish degrees of toe in front and rear.

These are the settings that some have, although some increase this to up to 2 degrees negative for the track.

£80 is good - it cost me that just for the rear camber bolts to achieve the 1 and a half degrees at the rear!

I'm not aware of many good suspension companies up North - and thats the reason why most will travel to PowerStation in Cheltenham - and some will go all the way to Winchester to get Michel Dever to do it - these are the only 2 I'm aware of that are any good in England... but there must be a cfew others out there...
