Default Hey Vic

after getting your H&R springs installed (just got mine) where did you have your alignment done? can you recommend a place in our area?
i'm having mine installed next week but my honda tech (patient of mine) told me not to bring it to him at Manchester Honda. although they have a brand new great shop there...the machine is placed poorly, i guess. he told me that my car would most definitely scrap the underbody trying to get it up on it. he's pretty disappointed in their new machine. he wasn't sure where to send me that had any experience with S2000's or would make sure its well taken care of.

Hey Jeff
To be honest, i havent even done my alignment yet! Been busy planning vacation and doing the Wine drive on the weekends etc etc I need to do it soon though

I was told that "Flanders alighment" (where i went to in the past) on Franklin ave In Hartford is under new ownership so i dont know how reputable they would be now. I took 2 cars there years ago, as well as all my friends with modded cars and we had great experience with them. But i dont know how they would be now. Also, when asking my mechanic where to go he stated "If that Jamaican guy is still working at Flanders, id have him do it. Otherwise try Fast-go Muffler/alignment in Manchester. Ive heard good things about his work"

So i guess when i get around to going to manchester, i will go to this guy. I dont go up to that side of the river often so maybe in a week or 2. and while im there i will swing by Manchester Honda for some oem stuff.

guys ask for Mel at Village garage in Avon 860-677-6053. Tell him Josh sent you. He'll hook you up and do a very good job. He works on pos cars to Ferrari, BMW, my S, my dads Corvette, various Honda's etc. just about everything, top notch work.

jcr9 - spotted you the other day on Rt. 9 going to work. We pass each other in the mornings.

Hey Josh, i may go to him as well then. Does he have a laser alignment machine?

I just got info from a friend who goes to Capozzi's in new britain and he says they have a nice new laser alignment machine, so it never touches your expensive wheels.

I will use either or and post my experience

Vic
