Hi all,

Any recommendations in the LA area for a shop that can competently install a full suspension system & perform an alignment to OEM spec with the lowered setup? Is this even possible? I've been reading a lot about people who scrub their rears no matter what they try.

I plan on getting Bilstein shocks (stock/upper height setting) and Dali or Comptech springs/swaybars all done at once.

Thanks!

Go to Jon Martin at Southbay Acura 310-539-3636 mon-fri 9-7pm.......he is the one who services and modifies a lot of the nsxes.
 
Sander @ The Wheel Supply (he will know where to go for alignment nearby) in Walnut. He pays a lot of attention to detail but does not have an alignment rack in house. He is at the 57 and 60 junction in Walnut.

If you want to go to an absolute one stop shop w/ the best of alignment experience go to Darin @ West End Alignment in Gardena. He is off Vermont @ the end of the 91 fwy.

I'm way down in South OC so I haven't been up to use John Martin. However, I met him at the most recent NSXPO and found him to be extremely knowledgable and helpful. Moreover, while I don't want to put anyone on the spot, I'll say that one of the very few recognized experts in the country feels that John is the local go to guy. That would be enough for me.

Given my location, I have taken my car on several occasions to Autowave and I think they do good work. There are cheaper alternatives but I think this is one of those things where you get what you pay for.

Mike,

Go to Huntington Autowave to get the work done. They are the best in the area. Ask for Shane.

Since Auto Wave doesn't have alignment equipment, I would suggest you go to a dealer that can do the install, alignment and supports the SoCal NSX group. This would break down to Power Acura in Torrance (John Martin) or South Coast Acura in Costa Mesa. HTH
 
John is the guy to go to......I went to his place for my JIC's install and they took it to Darin to get it dialed in.

Without a doubt. Go see Darin as Racer stated. The best for everything.
