Getting adjustable rear camber arms installed, anyone know how much centreline suspension charges for wheel alignment and adjustment of camber arms?

Or any recommendation of places for wheel alignment?

Am so sick of this negative camber tyre wear!

Ask centreline how much they're gonna charge you the second time when you go there for something else and they tell you that your suspension set up is way out and asks you who did it.....he wasn't happy when I told him he set it up.... Or at least charged me a ridiculous amount and claimed to have done so

ôoooooh. tis a flamin mongrel when that happens. well within your rights to tell them to reverse it, as you didnt authorise the work.

edit* may or may not be within your rights in australia......

I went to Centreline a couple of times.

Service was excellent, suspension setup was perfect and he didn't charge me for any of the work in finding the fault.... only for the setup, install and parts.

Couldn't have been happier

What if he'd given you a wristy at the end? Note this did not happen to me

do rate centreline. after getting an alignment at a standard tyre/suspension shop and receiving the figures, then going to centreline to have it double checked cause it was weird... centreline showed me there was nothing wrong. and they said some places dont calibrate their alignment gear as often as they should.

Chris is a good guy, they know their stuff. You dont go there expecting a cheap bill but provide quality work and really good feedback on setups. Will be taking the gloria there to get the suspension sussed out fo sho.

Centreline did $1500 of suspension work for me, which I'm pretty sure was quoted to be around $1000. When I went to pay I asked about the SAU Vic club discount and he said that I should have told him upfront about that (so he could budget for it?), that the time they spent on my car was more than he charged for and that they always look after anyone with a Skyline anyway.

They did good work I think, but too far to travel and don't fancy those bills. I go to Traction Tyres now. Had a reasonably priced alignment there and the guy who worked on my car spent 10 minutes explaining what he did with it, why he did it and the limitations of my suspension setup etc.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
