cheers all for the very warm welcome , have to say its alot warmer than some forums i have been on .

I am planning on getting my self along to some meets and meeting up with some of you guys and girls . i looked at the cardiff meet tonight but cant make it

Maybe a helpfull bit of info for you guys ( and girls) who are looking at suspension setups on your scooby's. I work as a race mechanic and we are doing alot of fast road and track setups of raods cars including 4 wheel laser alignment and corner weighting. if any of you guys fancy it then let me know and i shall give details of the workshop and hopefully we can sort your needs out,

Or if theres any work that you need done and want a top job doing then let me know.

I have to give credit to the guys in the work shop they are a great bunch of lads that will give exactly want you want.

Right sorry for the rant

Cheers

Andy, I'm currently getting off my **** and re-building my track day Honda CRX. I've added a new Koni/Eibach/Ground Control suspension setup along with a few tweaks to increase front end camber. I'll be looking to get this aligned and corner weighted at some point in time so PM me some details

Here for no reason whatsoever is the car running on it's old D2 coilovers.

Welcome to the forum, we have an SWS run on Sunday if your interested.

I'm definitely inerested in the alignment service as I have a set of coilovers on my car and would like to have it set up for a more road comfortable ride.

Please post up some details as at the moment the only 'local' specialist laser alignment service is in Tewksbury.

Hi guys i have had another word my boss about the price and apparently he told me the wrong price ( yesterday was a very stressful day ) the price isnt £200 as i was first told its £150 for the 4 wheel alignment and corner weighting.

Sorry to put wrong info up guys , makes me look like a ****
