    You could try a set of poly suspension bushings, or stock replacement bushings if nobody makes a poly set for your car, as well as new tie rod ends and possibly ball joints, see if that will hold your alignments better and keep the suspension and steering nice and tight too. Also talk to the people at Grand Torismo east, I heard they are very helpful, they might know more about what they're doing than Kauffman since you keep saying they're not doing things right for you.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    Gran Turismo East can lick balls. They'll tell you that your car is too low to go on their rack, serves no purpose, and to raise it up past stock height for them to be able to work on it. Gran Turismo East FTL

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!

    I've had 2 very close friends give me a positive review on them, aligning some slammed cars with very adjustable suspension setups. Maybe you got hold of their worst mechanic, or maybe they have gone downhill, or gotten better since you went? I am just going off of recommendation my old room mate and my cousin gave me as well as being friends with the chick who works the front desk there.

    I took both of my old cars there for alignments and they did it no problem. I used to praise GTE. I took the s2000 over there and whoever I dealt with gave me a damn lecture about my car being too low. I didn't go there for a lecture, I went there for an alignment. He tells me, "we align race cars that are this low, but they serve a purpose." Are you kidding me? Low is low. I had the worst time and I will do what I can so no one else goes there. I'm not the only one who's had a bad experience either. I had a friend with a BMW 335i take his car there too, and they gave him the same trouble they gave me. And his car is NOWHERE near as low is mine. His has a mild drop. Place is terrible, old school rack, and a terrible driveway to pull into
