GTA shops for alignment - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

iGarage says they took my car to Bullock City Auto Services for alignment (I think they have a certified Lexus & Toyota tech).

Here is my alignment spec sheet for general reference:

Front Left : Right (Spec Range)

Camber -0.4 : -0.3 (-0.8 to 0.8)
Caster +5.1 : +5.5 (5.2 to 6.7)
Toe +0.01 : +0.01 (-0.12 to 0.12)
SAI +16.1 : +16.7
Included Angle +15.7 : +16.4

Rear Left : Right (Spec Range)

Camber -1.0 : -0.7 (-2.0 to -0.5)
Toe +0.09 : +0.09 (-0.04 to 0.20)

Rear (Spec Range)

Cross Camber -0.3 (-0.8 to 0.8)
Total Toe +0.18 (-0.08 to 0.39)
Thrust Angle 0.00

Suspension: STI springs set @ 15mm lower than stock, STI rear pillowball trailing links set and pillowball lateral links set.

If you're in the GTA and want someone who actually understands performance driving then always go to Can-Alignment.

Scott is amazing.
Check out his webpage, this isn't some basic alignment shop fixing corollas that have been curbed.
Although if he did, it would be the best damn handling beige grocery getter you'd ever drove.

Another +1 for Scott.

Scott@CanAlignment is great. With the rear LCAs he dialed in camber spot on side to side and got everything else as I requested.

It'll be more expensive than a normal place, but you get more for your money. How much it costs will depend on the car, what type of adjusters you have and how far out the alignment is from the final specs.

Scott has a ton of experience, so if you're unsure of what settings you want he'll have lots of insight too.

I took my car to KSL automotives for alignment the other day after reading some good reviews. The price was good, service wasn't bad, but the place is dirty and greasy. when i got my car back i had greasy foot prints all over my car mat that wasn't easy to get rid of.

Between $350-400 for corner balancing on coilovers and alignment.

Lol don't know how many garages you've been to, but your description basically defines a garage. If you wanted a boutique shop, should've bought a McLaren.

No garage should be leaving a customer car dirtier than when you brought it in. If they're leaving greasy hand prints and footprints that's definitely something to complain about.

The shop can be dirty, but they should be protecting the car from getting dirty.

Just had NV Auto put my coilovers on and do a summer alignment, along with a new catback and intake. Always had good experiences with them. Great choice for anyone in the west end (they are in Hamilton). They'll align it to whatever specs you want, and if you have questions or need recommendations they are very helpful.
