I've always gone to steven at rpm in Arcadia. Guy really Knows his stuff and he's a fellow car enthusiast. Anytime I had an issue with my car not sitting right or whatever he always had a solution for it. Call ahead usually they can do it same day.

West End Alignment 18008 S Vermont Ave, Gardena is pretty much the best place you can go for a performance but the waiting period is crazy.

I did a light smoke on the factory taillights but I have aftermarket lights now that are even darker. If you look on Zeta performance's postings about taillights you will see a picture of my car. Is Evasive too far for you? They are pretty good too. Are you looking for a plain alignment or performance? If you have coilovers get a 4 corner balance and alignment.

I'm going to get Valenti's tails, but I worry too much of being hassled by cops in CA.

I'm looking for a plain alignment. I know performance alignment could cost more due to test and return to get perfect alignment?

West end all day. He is the only shop I let touch my NSX. Not knocking any one else, but like the saying goes "if its not broke, don't fix it". Darin has done nothing but great alignments, where I took the DD to amiericas, Firestone and a third place I can't think of and I basically blew $100 times 3. Even the most basic alignment I'm going back to Darin

I have the Valenti's on my car now. I just figure its a fix it ticket and I can put the old ones one in 5min

As for alignments go I recommend doing it right the first time.

Temple City Auto Repair. They stand behind their work and do a great job. They've aligned cars for time attack, drift, autocross, etc. No ramps to drive up so they can handle lowered cars no problem. They even aligned Nomuken's D1 R34 when it was here for D1 USA in Irwindale.

Toe setting only starts at $60
Toe, camber and caster setting $100

Yes Cyrus is awesome but be ready to fork over some serious dime.

The Wheel Supply in Walnut is local & cheap, Albert is great. Make a point to not let his assistant touch your car.

As always make sure you have an agreed upon price before they start work.
