Good Alignment Shop - Nor Cal (SAC)? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I know it's been asked before, i did search however no one had any recommendations.. I want to find an alignment shop that knows what they're doing with modded suspension. Not that mine is spectacularly modded but i just put in a new rack, RSR springs, KYB's, BV lower control arms & BV Tension rods. The car is driveable but obviously is out of alignment. Just want to know if anybody has had any success with any pro-shops around here. Thanks

Try Radial Tire over by the Neillo Maserati dealership on Fulton and Cottage Way. They do a ton of custom stuff and have treated my cars with great respect and even let you sit in the car when they corner weigh it. I think its 50 bucks too.

Also, I just ran across these guys
Driving Ambition - Excellence in Automotive Products and Service
They are by 50 and sunrise, they are a high end time attack type shop, I'm sure they can handle full custom set ups, or at least can direct you someplace that can. I am going to call them soon to get an alignment.

sweet, thanks that should be a great place to start. I also have heard good things about Radial Tire off some other forums after a google search. That race shop looks nice too, maybe i'll give them a call and see how much they charge. Can't wait to get this thing street ready and meet up with everybody at a local meet.

Just wanted to let anyone who cares know that Radial Tire Service in Sac did a great job on the Alignment for a very fair price. If you go there talk to Alex, he's very knowledgeable. He was able to drop the LCA's and Tension rods to adjust them to be as equa-distant as possible (which i thought was cool, Les Schwab sure as hell wouldn't do that, at least not unless you have a connection) had it in there for probably 2 hours for only $85. Great results.
