where to get racing alignment in NY??

[gotbeef4brains]

hey everyone i was wondering if anybody on the forum lives in new york and knows any shop that does race alignments. i know of a few places but they charge an arm and a leg and i don't have money to burn like that

What kind of racing? What kind of tires?

$100-150 is pretty standard for alignment/adjustment. Definitely not in the arm and leg category.

racing alignment i want one for the street.

regular alignment is around 60-75$

a race alignment where they set caster/camber/toe/height will run from 100-150$

if you dont have all the adjustments for the stuff listed above dont waste your cash just get a standard alignment

I second that, unless you have a slue of suspension parts under the car. You don't have half the adjustments.

what settings are you looking for

Racing alignment?

I have adjustable everything (cept front and rear lower control arms) and I paid $99 for a full 4 wheel alignment. (Front & Rear: Caster/Camber/Toe)

Basically what you are looking for is a FULL 4 wheel alignment, like someone else said it's usually $100-$130 depending on where you go. I would not pay more than $130 though, anything more than that and I would tell them to kick rocks.

I just paid $120 at Dyno Comp about two weeks ago. Had my settings re-done because I needed way more rear camber, and a tad more in front. That, and Richard knows what the heck he is talking about.

If you have a friend who works at a dealership or small franchise shop such as Bell Tire or Muffler Man you can get it done free or pay a small amount plus a pack of beer. To get ur adjustments just do some research on what ever applications you are looking for. On Saturdays when my boss is not around I let my friends come in and use the alignment rack. To me its not that hard to do unless the adjustment bolts are rusted to hell.

along with the toe adapters...HAHA, and you can make some cash is you take it to track days and charge a few bucks to use it, after i did my alignment the first time i took my car to my old work(independent repair shop) and checked it using their Hunter machine and it was .030 degrees out on camber form what i wanted which was -2 degrees exactly so i wound up with -2.03 degrees on the right rear and -1.99 on the left rear, -1.98 right front and -2.02 left front and zero toe all around

yeah its awesome, if i want to change the ride height anytime, or install new suspension parts, or tune the suspension differently, then i dont have to shell out any extra cash on an alignment
