SkyJawa Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 Me and SMW wanted ours doing around Bracknell mate. But for reputable he's gone, and I'm off next week to Micheldever, down near Winchester. Its about 135 for the alignment, about 4 hours or so and they'll do it to Lance's settings from MKIV.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 hiya mate - thanks 4 the reply. i know micheldever is there but was kinda hoping 4 something closer to home. but it's good to know that they are flexible on adjusting the geometry ...

Guest Terry S Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 Roy, Northway Tyres in Watford do a good job, & they have the specs on my computer for the Yellow Billies & Eibachs. They are not far from the M1 so even you should find it, and no, I won't look for a phone number for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted February 12, 2004 Author Share Posted February 12, 2004 thanks terry - i was just thinking of northway myself. i shall go n look for them tomorrow so if i'm not back by lunch time, send out the search party ! any idea how long it takes and cost ? can i mention your name to get them to use your specs ? i am assuming it is close to those on mkiv.com ?

Guest Terry S Posted February 12, 2004 Share Posted February 12, 2004 They won't have it under my name. It will just be a Supra file. I still have the print outs in my desk draw, I will see if there is a file # and text it to you. From memory it was about £120 but it was a few years back.

Roy Posted February 13, 2004 Author Share Posted February 13, 2004 thanks mate - just spoke to the guy and said he DID have previous files for a supra and he would adjust to suit as i required. i will probably go n see them after lunch sometime ..

Roy Posted February 13, 2004 Author Share Posted February 13, 2004 terry/phil/guys - just came back from northway in watford and they did a top job on it. i asked them to spec the car to that from the mkiv.com site. the handling is transformed and she feels far, far tighter and no longer pulls to the left or goes light at speed (i errm had a bit of a spirited run coming back down the m1:innocent: ). thanks to all, esp. terry n phil.

SkyJawa Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Thats good to hear mate, as I said, getting mine done by Micheldever on Tues, hope I get similar results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
400BHP Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 I paid 50 quid and mine is spot on too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Harwood Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Much as I want to pay as little as possible, £50 sounds soooo cheap. Did the do full alignment? Did you get a spec sheet showing the results? I'm not doubting them, just sound too goo to be true! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
