| Best place for alignment?
I've been trying to find a good place to get my car aligned before track day this friday. I know time is tight but I booked an earlier time but my car couldn't make it on time.
The place I booked at is Advance Automotive in Richmond. I know there's Dale's in Langley but does another know of a good place in Richmond or Vancouver that I can get it done before Friday? Thanks!

PDM does a good allignment if you don't mind the attitude that Don gives out. They will accept cars that are on the low low
will Dales accept cars that are slammed too?

But it's just the way he talks.
been going there for couple of years... honest guy.

Dale's is top notch when it comes to alignments as long as you don't mind treking out to langley.

Taken my MR2 to Don @ PDM twice without any issues. Straight up honest guy. Drop car off, give him the specs, leave, come back an hour or two later, pay, thank you very much and leave.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Magnus at ABV Automotive in Surrey.. King George, just up from the Patullo bridge.
He doesn't feed you bullshit or lines... if there's something wrong, he'll give it to you straight up. And he doesn't rely on the computer to tell him things... he actually understands vehicle geometry.
Magnus was the only guy who looked at my car and was able to align it.. to give you an idea, I've got a Cavalier with half-Park Avenue, half Malibu front suspension.. and full IRS from an Alero on the rear. Try explaining that to someone who can't see past the fact that it's a Cavalier... who doesn't understand how to punch that into their computer... or doesn't even speak English in the first place...

Ya, PDM's what I was thinking thanks! That's where I took my old boosted wagon, they did a good job although I didn't really deal with Don much. Dealt with a younger kid there. Quote:
