    Alignment

    Okay noob question... im getting an alignment done tomorrow would it matter if i had a full tank of petrol or not? Since these fluid levels, etc are all variables would it affect the balance of the car while being aligned ?

    yes, but what matters more is getting the alignment done by someone who knows what they are doing...

    no use making sure the car is at perfect "average operational height" if you get it done by a guy that has got little idea besides maiking everything point to what the book says...

    but that said - as long as you goto a good place, taking stuff out of the car that is not normally in the car is a good idea...

    BTW - if you think the petrol tank is an issue, make sure they put 50kg of sandbags or similar on the drivers seat idf you want it to be a 'perfect alignment'

            they work on lots of group A and sports sedans - insanely low cars!

            so i'd assume he'd be OK with a lowered road car...

            cost me $100 to get an "aggressive street alignment"

            they will set the car up to whatever specs you want - "road or race" - you just need to talk to the guy for about 10mins about your driving style and use for the car..

            i was very impressed by his professionalism and intention to 'get it right'
