not that i have any experience in this, but i heard a lot of places can't do alignments on a lowered s because of how low it sits? do you guys recommend any place in particular?

 

how lowered are you.

 

not lowered yet but planning on about 1.3-1.5 or so.

 

where do you live

 

call brian at merlins in glenn ellyn. he will hook you up

630-469-9776

he has done quite a few UMW owners cars

 

i'm located in glenview. i'm willing to drive a some distance if the person does excellent work.

 

i've been getting mine done @ Firestone on 18** Western for the last year. both cars i got the life time alignment package for ~$130. the third time they did a pretty darn good job on the S2000, and they were willing to dial in my alignment specs even on an extremely dropped Miata...

considering Firestone is national, i don't think you can beat this deal which will recoup itself after 3 alignments... (2 alignments a year, you're in the black after 2 yrs)

 

Glenview, huh....I get mine done over at Motorwerks of Barrington. The guy that does alignments there does a lot of the Porsche club racer alignments.

I like getting mine done there, he charges $60 (be it OE spec or custom), or $45 for a temporary "weekend" alignment with another $35 for back to OE spec after the weekend. He likes working on the s2000 because they are so much more straight forward then other cars he has to deal with.

 

Brian did my car WITH all the body mods and lowered. He was VERY, VERY careful getting the car on the lift and did a great job. Took about 1.5 hrs and cost me ~$75. Well worth it.

 

Brian is excellent!!! I was able to stand around and observe while the work was being done.
