Default Alignment in NOVA?

Well put the espelir's on this weekend and as predicted the alignments off so i wanted to get that done cause i can tell with the alignment fixed that this beast is reallly gonna let lose in handling. So does anyone know a good place in the NOVA area to get it done at? Thanks guys.

any word on where you went for this, Chris? i'm looking to get it done once i put my S-02s back on next week. also, would like to know if these are still the 'Euro Recommended Specs' for alignment?

that was an '02 post, but i have an '03 and it's been a while since that thread was updated. just wanted to know if those would work well on an otherwise stock '03.

edit: specifically, i would like the car to feel a bit less 'darty' while on highways...

I would try Curry's. My car wouldn't clear their machine in Chantilly so they sent me to their other shop and they did a good job.

PM FF2Skip... He pointed me to a shop in Fredricksburg (I'd consider that a qualified "NOVA" location...especially for the money ). I drove up from Richmond to use this shop he'd recommended. Guess they charged ~ $60-ish for the 4-wheel alignment. I opted for the European alignment as well. As you can see below, The Bruised Banana, with Koni's on lower perch and KG/MM Super Sports sits pretty low.



Not as low as some, but damned low. Skip has your springs if I'm not mistaken. Anyway...I was lower on approach/break-over onto the ramp/lift than Skip was...buuuuuuuut I cleared [barely]. Still, I cleared, and they did an excellent job with my alignment.

Like I said...PM Skip .

Good luck!

- Dave
