Cheap and good usually don't go hand-in-hand.

I've always done my alignment at Auto Innovations in Milpitas.

I find a few shop around the area that arent bad, just want to gather information for those of you guys who did alignment and experience.

How much did you do alignment at that shop?

Thanks

I paid $120 to have my Impreza aligned to my specs. They adjusted both the front and rear components.

$120?

I go to Motorsport Techniques in Hayward for $80-100. Jack is great to work with. He knows what's he doing.

Correct. I paid $120.

Auto Innovations has been great for me in past experiences and is convenient. I don't mind paying a little more.

where would you guys go to get the stock header studs rethreaded or just drilled out? my stock threads are crossed and would probably swap to aftermarket headers but would like it fixed in case I need to swap back to stock. Thanks

just go buy a tap and die kit and fix it yourself. its actually pretty easy. I had the brake line braket get crossthreaded on my rear rotors and fixed it no problem

Probably just going to cut it off and use that tap and die kit like you mentioned. Going to get an aftermarket header now so I'll have time to fix that stud
