JustCallMeNick Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Sorry if this is thread pollution. The regional forum is a barren wasteland and we get a lot of traffic here in the Fourth Gen section. coilovers are a "race" item. You need to actually have them adjusted (corner balance) before they ride correctly. For DD, a nice spring shock combo is much better. Does anyone know of a Michigan/Ohio performance shop with a solid reputation that would be a good place to go for little things like this? The only things I've been able to find are Boost Controlled Performance (not a single thing about suspension on their whole site), an assortment of muscle car shops, and then of course there's Switzer Performance but I'm not driving my Stage 2 Legacy all the way to Switzer to have my coils adjusted for daily driving while they build 2,000HP GT-R's next to me. :lol: I'd like to find a good performance shop anyway to do work in the future.

solidxsnake Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Perhaps JmP would have some advice for you (IIRC, he's also from MI, but not sure where exactly). That said, I wouldn't necessarily look for a "performance" shop to do an alignment/corner-balance. In my area, I know of a couple of good places to go if I need what I consider "performance" work done (i.e. engine swaps/builds, custom exhaust work, routine maintenance/upgrades), and other places to go specifically for suspension-related things (alignments, corner-balance). The places that do things like race alignments pretty much only do that sort of work as far as I'm aware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustCallMeNick Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 Thanks! This is the first car that I'm really modifying and I'm not super satisfied with the few tried-and-true shops that I've come to trust over the years. They're great for OEM but not so comfortable with the tuner scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 If JmP can't tell you a good local shop, then etunes is your best bet.

JustCallMeNick Posted February 2, 2017 Author Share Posted February 2, 2017 Max - I already use TA (per your recommendation). Thanks! In fact I even had Mike rebuild a VF52 for me to add to the pile of car parts in my apartment closet haha. I'll for sure message JmP, whoever that is.
