Inlinepro is in Springfield. They don't have an alignment machine anyways to my knowledge. As far as Curry's and Ultimate goes, be prepared to pay $100-$150 for an aligment, which I think is high. There aren't many good aligment options around here.

yeah I know Inline doesn't have an alignment rack, they put on the coilovers and couldn't align them. I think I might have to head out to Ultimate but yeah, I'm gonna get it the exact height I want first.

Still having a problem with the Comptech front strut though... its really pissing me off. Tried to get the fitment again last night. Hopefully you are gonna get the cusco soon so you can let me know how you like it. If you do (like it that is) and the fitment is better then this stupid comptech one, I might go with that instead. I think my car might be retarded because no one else really had to many problems with the Comptech that I could find.

Well my cusco is the type-2 underbody x-brace, I have the spoon front strut already, so no need for a cusco one of those.

which bolt are you having problems with? maybe post some pics and jtso can give some advice.

you're correct, I was thinking vertex motorsports on spring hill rd... though I'm not sure they have a rack either. And yes the prices are expensive which is why I'd suggest just doing it once, but it seems liek the only way to get a good alignment on a very low car.

oh that's right, I knew that

anyway, yeah well I never got the left Cowl Brace Arm in there. So my main problem is Bolt "E" (http://www.comptechusa.com/instructions/ins120.pdf) Although I can't get the Right Cowl Brace arm flush so I'm having problems with the same bolt on the other side... all in all very frustrating.

Xizor, I think you left but we had to jack the car up like as high as the jack could go from the center jack point and loosen all the bolts for my coilovers just to get the thing on there...

Thanks all who came out to the mod meet. Sorry for the late pics. We had a pretty relaxing morning. Kevin (CGTSX2004) replaced his front brake pads and flushed his brakes, Ben (TSX.Fury) installed a Icebox, comptech SS, and part of the front strut Josh (campaachen) installed some speakers from El Dude, and Jason (jmathew43), Greg (didn't catch SN) and myself helped out. We had a whole lot of CG tsx's show up (4 out of 6 there), ate breakfast at 8am and go crackin.
