Thank you, I also noticed Dury Lane mentioned on the forum?

We have a 2013 GS450H F-SPORT It pulls to the left on the motorway, looking for the best place to take it around Manchester? I have used Nigel langs in the past, just wondering if they are still recommended? align my car doesn't bring up anyone in Manchester. Many thanks

No problems as per say, the car does ~1500miles a week so i installed 4 new tyres, clutch, right front lower rear control arm and four new uppers..i thought it best to get things looked at before it eats a tyre. To sum up everything is ok? Or does something need replacing on the left to take out the camber?

Second vist here after ~2years, 3hrs/£110 and 3 adjustments later i was given this with the comment 'this is as good as its going to get' Saw a gentleman by the name of peter move the front subframe about and said he adjusted the rear..which is doesnt look like he did i enquired about the -1 camber and he said it was fine even when compared to the other side. The garage has changed hands now for those who aren't aware like myself when i turned up. Car is a bog standard b6 audi a4 1.9

Cheers guys, ill get the above done and see how she goes just need to save for a panhard rod now -30 toe wow, tyre wears never really a big issue on track aslong as it yeilds a good result in terms of winning/position

i had 15" speedlines when i first got the car now having had the 14" toyota griffins i much prefer them

for the EP91 stock settings are +0.5 toe and thats it

wtf? im guessing its closer to the door?

i got 4 for £47ea + free delivery from oponeo a couple of months ago and £45? or £42? ea from camskills a year or so ago

The rear tyres are slightly offset as the car is lowered so a panhard rod would help even them out if they are going to use the rear to set up the front How do my settings sound? For a fast road setup?

How much would a set of two be delivered? Im guessing there no where near the £47 ea i paid for them?

ill have a look into it thanks, which ones are you using?

id be looking for performance above anything else, i have a very bad habit of throwing it around in all weather conditions and the KU31 has never failed me be it rain/summer heavy rain on the motorway...round abouts...quick launches etc etc obviously there have been times where the limit has been reached and they let go but thats my doing

Langs it is then the rear is as standard atm, slight play in the rear passenger side wheel bearing but thats on the to do list and the only thing avaliable for the starlet is a panhard rod which is something im on the look out for second hand.....a rear adjustable antiroll bar is waiting to be fitted also Id class the car as fast road, i do anywhere from 350-500miles a week mostly motorway/round abouts/A roads etc etc and like throwing it about having said that tyre wear is only a issue if i cant get decent tyres for it on a regular basis so its not something i mind

Hey im looking to get two front tyres in the above awkward size my default choice has been Kumho KU31`s (excellent tyre for the money) for the last 6? ive bought over the 2 years but they are getting harder to find and theres rumours they are/have been discontiuned camskills and oponeo dont have them anymore and i cant get anything solid off my local kumho dealers i even emailed kumho directly for a straight answer but no reply....all i can get is the KH31 of which i dont know anything about when compared to the KU31 reluctantly im having to go with something different ive been on tyre review but cant decide on which to get any opinions? http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre-Size/14-...55-14-Tyres.htm Asad

ahh right, have you been to Nigel Langs?

Im well and truely gob smacked.....the countless car owners and mechanics who`ve seen the pictures (some of which have even got theres set up having to move the hex bolt over) non of which spotted it even the owner of meister didnt spot it..... Thankyou very much mate, i dont drink but ill make sure to give you some drink money if we ever cross paths now to get to a wim alignment center.....i live in manchester and attend uni at sunderland can anyone reccomend one? i was thinking of the drury lane one in oldham but ive read it has since been taken off the wim list of alignment centers?

Hey all (i hope this is in the right section?) Merry christmas to you all i imagine no one will be online lol hope your all having a good time!!! where do i start! its getting to be abit of a joke now, i have meister coilovers/whiteline antiflift kit (provides more castor)/poly drop links and poly front wishbone bushes...the car sits on 185/55/14 ku31s and is a 1997 toyota starlet EP91 its been at two different garages now (kwik fit and a john bean equipped garage) and they both cant seem to give me the alignment settings i want -1 camber 0 toe and max positive castor (+2) i was only present at the john bean equipped garage and what he did was set the car up as per usual he didnt check the tyre pressures nor was the car running (something im told is a must) he then loosened the top mount for the driverside and took it all the way in (towards the engine) the computer read -0.30 i was puzzled to say the least he said he cant get anymore out of it....there was doubt that the topmounts were fitted the wrong way round i double checked this with the supplier of the coilovers and they are infact correct he put into the computer toyota>starlet>PAS and followed the scales on the screen to no avail i can only assume kwik fit did the same as the car came back with the topmounts fully adjusted inwards.....luckily i havent had to pay anything as the work wasnt carried out both shops addmited they dont do custom settings and one fat f*** even said "we dont do s**t like this we usually do mercs" my old man is friends with them otherwise i would have knocked his teeth out the cheeky cnut be naming and shaming later.....extremely poor customer service!!! currently in this position driverside Passenger side My question is do they have to go in to some sort of custom setting part of the softwear (it said standard wheel alignment at the bottom of the screen) so the scaling is different or do as they have done and punch in the cars details and set accordingly? he didnt try any other settings/click on anything else he was adamant his machine was correct and that my car was s**t.... OR is there a hardwear fault? nothing is obviously bent the car drove fine when the mods werent installed (slightly pulling probably due to toe out) no vibrations or anything at speed nor was there uneven tyre wear there is however uneven tyre wear now on the inside due to the camber settings.....or is something like the antilift kit causing problems? (i remember pulling the wishbone outwards then tightning the two bolts down as reccomended) the only other thing thats been suggested is loosen the bottom two bolts for the suspension and push the hub all the way in to get more negative camber as the top bolt hole on the coilovers are elongated (something which should be done on all MacPherson Strut installation) im a member of uk starlet club and tgtt its been posted on there, but with reduced site traffic due to christmas a solution hasnt been found although members have tried to help any help apreciated Asad
