Glad Blitzkrieg was able to point you in the right direction! Post a follow up on your experience with Coastal (I have no experience with them.)

Blitzkrieg did the alignment on my E36 M3 and did a fantastic job. It wasn't your normal alignment as we went through the whole black magic of the process including corner balancing, adjusting rebound and pre-load etc.

I recently went to pacific alignment and frame on Clark

Great guys, it was just my wife’s G37 but really explained all the adjustments etc. and reasonable price I think it was $120?

Just take the wheel off and move it over a spline or two.

Most of the recommendations in this thread are in Richmond. Anything in Burnaby or Coquitlam? I added M3 control arms to my E88 which affect my camber.

I'm probably retarded but I keep getting TSS show a Richmond location on Google maps. Or perhaps they've moved since you last used them?

Edit: a Google review mentions they've moved to Richmond from Burnaby.

Maybe use Alpha1 Automotive (https://www.facebook.com/alpha1automotive/) - never used them for alignments but I've always preferred them over TSS for regular maintenance. A little more polished (good wifi, waiting area, better communication).

Shit, they're popular. I called them today and they're booking a little over a week out. I was hoping to take the car up to Whistler tomorrow but the toe is totally fucked right now.

Edit: Found a shop to fit me in last minute (totally my fault) at DG Motorsports in PoCo.

Did TSS really move?
That's weird, all their addresses haven't been updated yet.

Too bad, I liked going there cause I could drop off my car and then hop on the skytrain. It's way out of the way now but maybe they'll have better waiting area now and the ability to drop off your car somewhere that isn't 2 blocks away lol.
