West End ---- alignment gurus

[SPCBA]

Just wanted to share my pleasent experience at west end. I communicated in my dumb meat head way what i wanted and they transferred it to actual car terms and got it done. All done to my wishes, my experience level, and for the road courses.

Blake that is cool...pretty well balanced based on the numbers...I'm interested to see how you think it feels on the track versus before....

I just drove up to Gardena from San Diego about a couple weeks to visit them for a corner balance myself. They use good old knowledge of everything that is alignment and I was really impressed. Cool guys too. Just not sure how often I can make that drive...

i was skeptical but was refereed by Ryne and Texas at CMS whom I trust whole heartedly. I drove the entire length of the 91 freeway and will do it again when I upgrade LCA's and again once I start shedding pounds.

Me toooooo! I was shocked at the improvement driving up the twisties to my house...as much as an improvement there as the coilovers were.

Never heard of them and Gardena is just a city over from me. Pretty cool.

Does sound good. Glad to know there is someone out there that does this.

If someone claims they notice a difference, I'd say it's in their head (like ported throttle bodies).

my car is not stock ride height nor bushings nor alignment nor wheels nor tires.... the dynamics have changed quite a bit

Thanks Blake! Once I get my coilovers I know where I'm heading!

Pretty sure Ryne would have sent you there which coilovers you going with?

Likely going to be the KW V3's or Pfadt's. I can't justify the cost of the pedders super car setup and I'm not drilling holes for the BC's. I like the ability to adjust ride height and still be able to change the setting from road to drag in a couple of minutes.

It will be a while before I get to that point. I have a long list of stuff on the honey-do list before I qualify for more car parts. lol

Honey do is a big one for me! I'm thinking Pfadts to since S/C is back burnered. For ride they fall in between the xa/bc and supercars and everyone likes the ride with bc's so should be fine, and the handling is great to and 34 lbs of weight removed right where you need it . And Pedders are way to costly

Chsmc has the pfadt featherlights...honestly the kw v3 are not easy to adjust... Would have to drill a hole or get the next model up i think its clubsport and drill a hole. If I could do again i would go supercars to be honest.
