Hey guys,
Did a quick search of the forum and couldn't find a thread specifically recommending a workshop in sydney. I have heard great things about heasmans steering but they seem more like a premium workshop, hence charging accordingly for the service.

Any recommendations would be appreciated!

My alignment with heasmons cost 130 or 150 can't remember

They only would charge extra if they have to do extra work
Such as coilover set up or adjustable arms adjustment.

Tbh it's worth the money, the years of experience in the industry shows.

Otherwise pedders at Morbank I think his name is Daniel he's on macrex seems to do a good job. People recommend him all the time

Heasmans charge $132 for a full wheel alignment. I will be needing one as soon as I get my new struts on and am definitely gonna go to them for it.

I have also heard good things about Daniel as Rob mentioned, however I do not know the price.

Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.

I have just heard back from Daniel, who works at Pedders in Moorebank. He has quoted $145 for a front and rear wheel alignment.

Yeah, $60 is about normal, but many cars don't have much adjustment, so the amount of changes that can be made are minimal.

I remember many years ago getting my little Corolla (KE55) suspension tuned at East Coast Suspension in Kirrawee (IIRC), although they're in Taren Point now.
I was in love with the car after that. Even back then, it cost more than $60, but oh so worth it. They'd told me the suspension was fully adjustable, so they would be able to tweak it a lot more than "modern" cars - it was an 81 model with a bigger Celica rear axle.

After that, I was able to tease 1.8 Turbo AWDs through the twisty bits, so if the guys there were taught by the guy that did my setup, I'd recommend them :)
